Welcome 

The Florida Assisted Living Coalition is a an organization whose mission is to provide Education, Enrichment and Empowerment to healthcare professionals by providing educational seminars and conferences to healthcare professionals. Most of our sessions offer continuing education credits (CE's) offered at little or no cost. Our CE programs are recognized by CE Broker. Our organization also identifies social services and financial entitlements for seniors and the disabled over the age of 26

Floirda Assisted Living Coalition also known as (FALC) is a resource helping to match seniors who are active or homebound with social services and or senior housing. We are advocates we establish reasonable goals, work to understand ones expectation and preferences then identify a provider who will offer valuable answers. In most cases we help navigate the healthcare system as the senior or as the healthcare professional. Are you new to the area and NEED A DOCTOR? We work within a provider network of multiple medical centers, we can team you up with a primary care physician group in a medical center or identify a doctor who makes HOUSE CALLS!!! We
try to connect the disabled and aging public with social service entitlements both on a state and federal basis. We plant the seeds in a seniors garden of life and identify medical services that come to their home or help lead you to independent, assisted living and memory care communities in your neighborhood.. We also can assign a Community Coordinator who will escort you when touring senior living homes and communities, so you are NOT alone in the complicated process.

Best of all we ask the questions you might not think about asking when looking for a home provider or senior housing option. We can help identify a residences or provider that fits your "culture, style and budget" and is in your familiar neighborhood. Adult Family Group Homes, Behavioral Healthcare Communities, Hospice and long and short term care communities are all under our umbrella. Accommodations are available private or shared, situated in cozy private adult family group homes, from mid sized assisted living communities to resort style independent living residences. We help PARKINSON & ALZHEIMER MEMORY CARE patients find appropriate long term care. We also can make arrangements for MEDICAL DOCTORS to visit a senior or disabled client in their home or help identify social services, hospice care, home health or a hourly to live in caregiver. We help you find the services that are needed to make your life better, you make the choices we provide options. We help eligible seniors, surviving spouse understand VA & Diversion benefits.

Nathan Greene, U.S. Marine, Circa 1941 - 1945
"My wife was back home and I was stationed in Honolulu during the bombing of Pearl Harbor.  I remember those years in the military and while it was no picnic at the time, the men I served with were proud and we defended our country with honor. We were a close unit.  Years later I got cancer and todate I suspect it had something to do with my exposure to the radiation after the bombing. My doctor told us about Florida Assisted Living Coalition and they were helpful advocating for me to fill out the Aide & Attendance application for VA benefits after my wife passed away. It took almost 8 month's but the money helps pay for a caregiver plus other medical expenses."

Thomas & Phyllis Marino, U.S. Army, Circa 1952 - 1956.  "Phyllis is very sick she has had a couple of bi pass surgeries and 2 hip replacements and a bad back that cannot be fixed. I have type 2 diabetes, and my memory is not as sharp as my combat days in Korea. I also have some anxiety issues. We were struggling to manage while living on a fixed income. During the summer month's we had to make some hard choices, go lean on our medications to cover the cost of our electric bill or skip a meal. We recently got approved for just under $1800 a month with the VA Aide & Attendance financial benefites. Thanks to the support we got by Florida Assisted Living Coalition as our advocates."

 
The Veterans Aide & Attendance benefits pays up to $1644 + $305 a month for a spouse. Combined the allowable $1949.00 a  month and the money helps offset a caregiver.  Surviving Spouse can apply for benefits and receive $1056.00. Keep in mind - If you divorce the veteran you divorce the benefits!
