Navigating Aging: Key Planning and Resources for Caregivers

Planning ahead makes all the difference. When an aging loved one faces health challenges, having financial and legal affairs in order allows you to focus on what truly matters. Whether you're already a caregiver or preparing for the future, Navigating Aging: Key Planning and Resources for Caregivers will provide expert guidance, practical steps, and local resources to help you navigate the journey with confidence.

Hosted by Island Volunteer Caregivers (IVC) and Fieldstone Bainbridge, this free community event will take place on Friday, March 21, from 9:00 to 10:30 AM at the Kitsap Regional Library, Bainbridge Island.

This session is ideal for those who are currently caring for aging loved ones as well as those preparing for their parents’ or family members’ future needs.

The session will feature:

  • Dan Weedin of Dan Weedin Emerging Risk Solutions, who will lead a discussion on Assessing Financial Health and Options for Long-Term Care, covering key topics like:

  • Anthony Hinson of Sherrard Law, offering expert legal guidance on estate planning, powers of attorney, and other critical documents.

  • Representatives from IVC and Fieldstone Bainbridge, sharing information on local caregiving resources, volunteer support, and senior care options.

“As more families find themselves balancing work, personal life, and caregiving, having access to the right resources is essential,” said Joanne Maher, Executive Director of IVC. “This event provides practical tools and expert advice to help caregivers plan ahead and feel more supported.”

The event is free and open to the public, but registration is encouraged to ensure adequate seating and materials. Look for our ad on eventbright.com to rsvp and for more information.

Join us for an informative morning dedicated to empowering caregivers with the knowledge and support they need to navigate aging with confidence.
