This session features a pioneer in the field of caregiving, Denise Brown, and a financial planner, Sandy Adams, CFP, who has a Masters in the field of Gerontology. During this 90-minute program, Denise and Sandy will teach you about the experience of your clients who care for a family member. Throughout the caregiving journey, which can last from six months to more than 10 years, the role of family caregivers evolves – and so should the services and the support they receive. The Six Caregiving Stages describes the path that family caregivers take – from Expectant Caregiver, to Freshman Caregiver, to Entrenched Caregiver, to Pragmatic Caregiver to Transitioning Caregiver to Godspeed Caregiver. Most important, the stages – and their related Stumbles and Steadies — provide a map for financial planners to effectively support their clients throughout their experiences.
More than 65 million persons in the US provide care to a family member and the numbers will continue to grow.
The program objectives are:
- To educate financial planners about the evolution of the personal caregiving experience, which changes over time.
- To inform financial planners about effective planning and guidance they can offer given the family caregiver's stage.
- To provide financial planners a frame work which describes the family caregiver experience so they can be an appropriate referrals to support during each caregiving stage.
