Often, their loved one was in the hospital and the family was told to ”find a facility by noon tomorrow.” Nearly every family had NO idea what their loved one already had in place for a plan, what their resources or insurance was, if they had their medical/financial directives in place, and they had NO idea what to look for and ask about during the tour. In 2011 Annalee built Care Right to help families across the country TALK about what is in place, what is working well, what is not working well, and develop an Aging plan PROACTIVELY.
