CarePlanner
About this site: Whether you’re a senior or a caregiver for a loved one, making the difficult decision about living arrangements can seem daunting and overwhelming. Fortunately, creating a CarePlan can make things a little easier. When you complete a comprehensive questionnaire about your (or your loved one’s) background, health, and finances, you’ll receive Advice Reports to help you evaluate different living arrangements in your area. This free service is funded by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and is completely confidential. (http://www.careplanner.org/)  Pluses: The comprehensive Resources page provides many worksheets, checklists, tips, and sample questions to ask.  Minuses: The questionnaire is mainly designed to be completed by someone other than the person receiving care, so the language is very impersonal and clinical. Also, it’s not clear how to save your work if you need to finish to it later.  Best feature: CarePlanner Espanol offers makes this valuable service available to Spanish speakers. |
