Aging Parents and Elder Care (Senior Care)
www.aging-parents-and-elder-care.com

Mike Gamble, President of Senior Solutions of America, Inc., has specialized in issues important to seniors — from retirement planning to Medicare and elder care — since he began his career in insurance in 1964. He has earned a well-deserved reputation for his ability to develop creative, workable solutions to complex problems. He and an associate developed a substantially improved method for matching insurance benefits to the actual cost of elder care — an accomplishment for which they were awarded the first two United States patents for long-term care insurance. As a result, he has become increasingly recognized for his expertise in long-term care.

That expertise was first put to the test in September 2000 when his parents began to require the assistance of formal caregivers. Later, in February 2001, he became the primary care manager for his mother who lived 1,200 miles away. As he, his wife and sisters quickly learned, elder care can be very frustrating, especially if you’re new at it. Most of us don’t know where to go for answers — or even what questions to ask. Fortunately, his background helped guide him through the mountains of new and often unexpected challenges.

He created Aging Parents and Elder Care to share what he and his family learned both personally and professionally — so that it’s easier for you to find the reliable information you need — quickly.
