According to a 2018 AARP survey, 80% of adults over the age of 50 want to remain in their homes and communities as they age. For those in the home care industry, these findings come as no surprise. Home not only represents familiarity, but comfort and security as well. And during the pandemic, home has also been seen as a safe haven for older adults who, due to age and any pre-existing health conditions, are at a higher risk for developing serious complications from COVID-19. During today’s episode of Help Choose Home, I am joined by Jeff Wiberg, CEO of Family Resource Home Care, which has been serving residents of the Pacific Northwest for 54 years. Jeff has been in the home care field since 2008, and as you’ll learn in our discussion, he is passionately committed to helping people access care at home. In this episode of Help Choose Home we discuss: The wide variety of care available at home How professional home care services are paid for The value of home care services The role of home care agencies in helping to educate families in a variety of care options Be sure to check out Help Choose Home Season 3, Episode 5 show notes and our full library of podcasts dedicated to helping families learn more about professional home care options.

In fact, the days of the small mom-and-pop home care provider may be coming to an end, according to Wiberg.

Darol Tuttle, host of Living Care Radio, begins the episode by discussing the VA program and an award of assistance to a World War II Veteran who had flown B17 missions over Europe. Now in his eighties, the Veteran is wheelchair bound and resides in an assisted living community. Darol describes his pension award and how it will help this war veteran pay for care. He also notes that another client of his, a surviving spouse of a veteran, also received an award of a pension to help her pay for care as well. Next, Darol discussed the steps necessary under Washington law in the event it is desired to disinherit a child or a spouse. In particular, RCW 11.12.091 requires that, in the event it is desired to disinherit a child, to name the child in the Last Will and Testament and to state that it is intended to omit the child as an heir. Without this specific statement of the intent to omit, it will be presumed that it was am unintentional omission. Too often, people believe that a child who has a disability or special needs should be disinherited for fear that the government will take the inheritance of the child. Darol explains that this is not true and that it is possible to leave a gift to a special needs child but it must be done properly through a trust for the child created at death. The rest of the show was dedicated to the discussion of Medicaid, Medicare, VA benefits and home care. LIving Care Radio hosted Pam Stone and Sheila McKannay from Family Resource Homecare.
