What Families Should Know Before Choosing Home Care — a Webinar Video

When a loved one begins to need extra support at home, families often face a mix of emotions and uncertainty about where to turn. Our Co-Owner and Executive Director, Wendy Adlerstein, LSW, recently joined Attorney Tiff O’Connell of O’Connell Law LLC for a community webinar designed to take the guesswork out of that process. Drawing on years of experience in elder care, Wendy offered practical, compassionate guidance to help families understand their options and feel more confident moving forward.

During the webinar, part of O’Connell Law’s Lunch and Learn series, Wendy explored what non-medical home care actually looks like in practice — from the types of daily support professional caregivers provide to how individualized care plans are built around each client’s unique needs, preferences, and routines. She also addressed the important role that proper caregiver screening, training, and agency oversight play in ensuring that families can trust the people they welcome into their homes.

For families who are evaluating their options, Wendy shared key questions to ask when choosing a home care provider — and why starting those conversations early can make a meaningful difference. Whether you are planning ahead or responding to an immediate need, the full webinar is a valuable resource.
