Consumers > Long term care living

There may come a time when you or your loved one can no longer care for themselves independently. Finding care may seem difficult or even overwhelming at first. Whether you’re seeking care for yourself, or for a loved one such as a spouse, parent or sibling, Care Conversations™ can help you every step of the way. The resources here are designed to help seniors and their family members find answers to questions like:

  • Is care needed?
  • What are my options?
  • How do I choose?
  • How can I plan and prepare?
  • Where can I find more resources?
  • How do I start a care conversation?
At Care Conversations.org you'll find resources for starting the conversation, planning, preparing, and paying for long term care. The resources provide information and insight that you'll need to decide what level of care - nursing facility, assisted living program, residential care facility or other types of long term care - best fits your or your loved one's needs. The website will help you find the right care where you need it.
