Your loved one is in coastal S.C., but you live far away. Now what?

Perhaps your parent or friend moved to South Carolina's Grand Strand to enjoy the unique retirement lifestyle. They've been doing great, but recently you're getting worried. Maybe mom's not eating right, or dad's showing cognitive changes. Medications have become confusing for them. And you're living hundreds of miles away. How can you help?

Long-distance care giving isn't easy. You know your loved one needs help. They insist that all is well, but you've seen the changes that have crept in over time... the confusion, the empty refrigerator or spoiled food, piled up mail or papers, rumpled appearance, naps all day long. The neighbors are great, but you know it's not their job to care for your loved one, and they can't be there all the time. Maybe your loved one is cantankerous and pushes people away.

You suspect it's time for them to live in a community where they can receive a more appropriate level of care, but you don't know where to start.

You're not there to do all the research on the communities, offerings, and so forth.

 

You're not sure how to pay for care or how much it could cost.

 

You want to help, but instead all you can muster is guilt, frustration and a feeling of helplessness.

Don't worry. We've got your (and your loved one's) back. Our specialty is working with families who live far from the Grand Strand. As Senior Transition Consultants and licensed Realtors, we understand the challenges and stress of caring for elderly loved ones from out of state. We're here to take the burden off of your shoulders by doing things like - 

  • Discussing a range of care options in the area;

  • Speaking frankly about costs and how to cover them;

  • Easing into the difficult conversations on subjects ranging from asking for help, moving, managing all the stuff, managing the house. 

We're local experts - real people who care. Don't trust your loved one's care to a call center or A.I. bot. We are here to help, and our help likely won't cost you a dime.*
