3 Aging in Place | Prepare, Even If You Never Need It

Meghan Phelan joins Suzanne Newman on the Answers for Elders podcast to talk about making an aging in place plan, even if you never need to use it. Meghan says, "Everybody needs an age-in-place plan. Whether you activate that age-in-place plan, we don't know, but at least you have it in place. One is, to get your physical space ready. Number two is A.I., and what are we doing with technology? And number three is the human part of it: Do you have your team place, a CPA, an attorney, living wills, and all that, home care teams. And do you know your market? You need to know your market. So when I talk aging in place plan, those are the three things that I focus on."In this segment, Meghan and Suzanne go in depth at improving the safety of our home environment – "I look at bathroom, kitchen, hallways. Those are my first three... I usually recommend local safety experts that come in, and they'll do free safety inspections, and then they'll know where to get [whatever products are needed]." Then they tie it in with the addition of the Electronic Caregiver, an AI-powered virtual caregiver for a senior loved one designed to provide 24/7 care and safety support. ✨ Call Meghan to set up a demo of the Electronic Caregiver, featuring Addison and Pocket M.D., at 786.759.1676.Mentioned in this episode:Chateau RetirementChateau Retirement
