Financial Care for Your Elderly Relatives

It is increasingly likely that the responsibility for an ageing relative, particularly a parent, will fall upon their offspring. The effects of inflation, inadequate pensions and benefits schemes, sometimes coupled with declining health, can mean that the elderly need considerable assistance. This book provides those responsible for the care of an elderly relative with practical advice and information to ensure financial, mental and physical security. It concentrates on financial matters and well being and is suitable for use by the elderly for planning and prompting their offspring. The book looks at State benefits available, gives advice on medical as well as financial matters and provides a list of key addresses and contact numbers.
