We HELP plant seeds in a seniors garden of life and identify medical services that come to their home. We also can assign a Community Coordinator who will escort you when touring an assisted living facility so you are NOT alone in the complicated process. We can help identify an ALF that fits your style, budget and is in your familiar neighborhood from $600 - over $5,000.00 in monthly rentals. We also can make arrangements for a doctor to visit a client in their home or help identify social services for those in need. We help eligible seniors, surviving spouse understand VA & Diversion benefits.

Morton Glattsman, U.S. ARMY, Circa 1943
"We were married only a few months when my husband Mort was drafted, it was a cold wet day when he got on the bus - to go to basic training somewhere in Texas. Eight months later he was somewhere in combat and our daughter Wendy was born. It was my own boot camp, having to raise our daughter almost two and half years before the war ended by myself" -Ruthie Glattsman

After the war the couple had another child "Marc". Morty started working for an electrical company, a trade he learned while in the Army. The company changed hands at least 7 times until he retired in 1983. He later sold all of his stock (called GE) so he and wife Ruthie could enjoy their golden years. In 2007, Morty transferred what was left of his assets into his children's names and applied for VA Aid & Attendance benefits for himself and Ruthie. Since there is no look back period he figured out that his income didn't cover his living expenses including the need for round the clock care as he has stomach cancer. They are retired now living near Pembroke Pines, FL. Their 2 adult Children, are moved away & the grand children come around once in awhile.

The Veterans Aide & Attendance benefits pays Morty $1644 + $305 a month for Ruthie. Combined they receive $1949.00 a month and the money helps offset the caregiver. Mr. Glattsman, has comfort knowing that once he passes he leaves a legacy, because Ruthie will be eligible for monthly VA benefits equal to almost $1100.00.
