Ellen has helped families in transition through her mediation practice for 14 years. Deborah is an estate planning attorney who has served as a care manager to elder clients transitioning to assisted living. \u00a0She also mediates among families on issues like the distribution of an estate, easing tensions brought on by illness or death, and transitioning family members into age and capacity appropriate living situations.\u00a0 Ellen and Deborah will lead this engaging program through role playing exercises, assisted by Wendy Adlerstein, LSW, FirstLight Home Care&#8217;s Director of Client Care Services.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>If you are a professional interested\u00a0in attending, you can RSVP<\/strong><\/em> to\u00a0Brookdale Senior Living at\u00a0<span> <\/span><a href=\"mailto:elizabeth.cook@brookdale.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">elizabeth.cook@brookdale.com<\/a><span>, <\/span><a href=\"mailto:michele.stephenson@brookdale.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">michele.stephenson@brookdale.com<\/a><span> or <\/span><a href=\"tel:781-407-7711\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">781-407-7711<\/a><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FirstLight HomeCare of West Suburban Boston, along with Brookdale Senior Living in Dedham, is hosting a CEU Program, \u201cHow to Accommodate and Mediate Aging in the Family\u201d, on Tuesday, February 9th\u00a0from 7:30am to 9:30am\u00a0at\u00a0Brookdale in Dedham.
