When a loved one is discharged from a hospital but not ready to return home, families face important decisions.

We are here to help you navigate those choices with clarity and care.

Understanding Medicaid in Kentucky and Indiana:

Families in Kentucky and Indiana often have questions about Medicaid and long-term care, especially when they have ties to both states. With different rules in each state, navigating Medicaid can be overwhelming. We are experienced in helping families understand the options, whether they are deciding to stay in one state or relocate to another. This is particularly important for married couples, where the timing of decisions can significantly impact their future.

Protecting Your Loved One and Their Assets:

While you focus on the immediate care needs of your loved one, we help you develop a plan to safeguard assets. Our goal is to maximize financial and care opportunities, ensuring protection for a spouse, a disabled child, or other family members still living in the community.


Important Considerations:

When planning for long-term care, key factors include the cost of care, preferred locations for services, and whether long-term care insurance is available. Each of these can influence your choices and ensure the best outcomes for your family.


We’re here to guide you every step of the way, providing clear answers and a compassionate approach.
