Years ago before Medicare and Long Term-Care Insurance were popular; in the 1950’s when my grandparents needed care, there were two choices, go into a nursing home or stay at home. My parents visit- ed several nursing homes in the area and much to their dismay, returned with this, “We cannot put our parents in that place… it smelled of death and dismay.” Therefore, they opted for care at home

with a licensed home care company that had the people on their staff that could take care of my grandparents and let us monitor that care. It all seemed to go well. They lived in their home for a few years at a cost for care 1/10 that for a nursing home. The inherent advantages were they knew their own house, they knew where the bath- rooms were and they could eat in their own dining room and have visitors all day and night. It’s too bad that this was the only alternative then. Today there are a few companies in New Jersey that offer several methods for pro- tecting us as we get older. Traditional Long Term-Care, Life Insurance or Annuities both with Long Term-Care riders. We are here to explain them all as a service to the community and provide you with a general cost with no obligation. Here are a few basic items to be considered when discussing a Long Term-Care In- surance program for you and your Significant Other (S.O.): The average time spent in a Nursing home is about 3.1 years per person at a cost of about $90,000 per year or $270,000 over time. It’s true that some people who go in, get out in a few months but on the other hand, some are there for over 10 years. Those costs can add up! You can have the monies you invest in your policy increase between 5% compound interest of just 1% simple interest. (Depending on the insurance carrier). You can have 1 policy for you and 1 for your S.O. or have 1 “DUAL” program for both. You can share all the features doubling your benefits or keep them for yourself. The pro- gram can be for 2 years to a lifetime, it your choice. That’s just a few basics. If it starts getting a bit too confusing, we are here to simply explain ALL the features of each “Option” so you are not confused. Take your time.
