How Resources For Living worked for Ann

Ann* wanted to know about retirement living options for her next phase of life. But she didn't know where to start. Ann met with a Resources For Living Medicare consultant. They talked about what Ann finds important for retirement living. Then together, they looked at retirement living options in Ann's community. The consultant set up time for an over-the-phone review of options in the area with Ann and her children. Ann was then in a better spot to decide which retirement lifestyle option is best for her. She was ready to take the next step.

How it helped Ted’s dad get home care

When Ted’s* dad was discharged from the hospital, there was a lot to do to make his home livable. Ted was nervous about being his dad’s sole care provider. Resources For Living helped him find transportation services. They also explained what home medical equipment might be needed to help keep his father safe. And they provided referrals to local home medical suppliers. Ted felt better knowing his dad was getting the right care.

How Sue found free wigs for cancer patients

Sue* was about to begin chemotherapy. She searched for wigs but found they were very expensive. Sue realized she couldn’t afford one by herself. But she still wanted to be able to go out in her community with confidence — and with hair in her natural color. Sue’s Resources For Living team was able to find programs that provide free wigs for cancer patients.
