Will Paying For A Nursing Home Drain Your Savings?
Whether you are now enjoying your retirement years or know that those years will soon be here one thing is for sure: you have worked hard investing most of your life to save for retirement.
But in a short time, those hard-earned savings could all be gone if you or your spouse suffered an illness which resulted in your needing nursing home care or home care. If that happens, what will you do?
If you haven't done any planning your options will be more limited. However, losing all your savings to pay for nursing home care or home care is not inevitable, if you plan now. And we can help.
We are the experienced elder care attorneys of Enea, Scanlan & Sirignano. Our firm serves Westchester County, New York and the surrounding areas, including the cities of Yonkers, New Rochelle and White Plains.
