Webinar Recording | Elder Care: How to Protect the People Who Protected You

The recording of our webinar on the importance of elder care is now available.

Our elders are our teachers, our guides, and our protectors: from an early age, they instill in us the tools and values that shape our lives. The aging process often comes with physical and emotional challenges that can make life difficult for our elders, and we have a responsibility to protect them — just as they once protected us.

On May 19th, SWP’s Marcie Nach was joined by Teri Dreher, and Jackie Melinger for a conversation on the importance of elder care and the roles we can play in providing it for our loved ones. Marcie, Teri, and Jackie discussed some of the ways you can support your elderly loved ones through the challenges of aging, including: 

  • Handling changing circumstances
  • Various ways to help seniors remain independent
  • The most common scams targeted at the elderly — and how to avoid them
  • Identifying the right resources to guide family members

Investing Is Not Gambling
I have many pet peeves. I don’t like it when pillows in our house are lying on the floor. It irritates me when people talk on speaker phone in public. It drives me crazy when people rush to stand up in the aisle of an airplane once it lands (I’m really not as angry as it might seem).

What’s New in Medicare for 2025
Every year, we encourage our clients enrolled in a Medicare Part D stand-alone prescription plan to take a few minutes to verify that their existing plan remains the best option for them. For the 2025 plan year, there’s a little more urgency, as some big changes are occurring that have never been a factor before. Starting in 2025, Medicare is setting a $2,000 cap on out-of-pocket drug costs for those with Part D drug plans.  From brokers I have spoken with, this has caused a lot of turmoil in this market as some providers are changing what drugs will be covered under their formularies, co-pays, deductibles, and coverage of brand versus generic.  If you were happy with your Part D drug plan in 2024, it could be a different story in 2025.
