“Cheryl has been absolutely invaluable as I have been retained by clients with complex medical issues and is a tremendous advocate for our clients. I have learned a lot from her as well. Cheryl has taught me to look out for the whole person, not just the finances and investments”

Saturday work mode was activated ☕️

When you're a small business owner, the client work happens Monday through Friday. So when does the actual business of running a business happen?

Saturdays. Over lunch. Possibly with margaritas. 🍹

While everyone else is enjoying their weekend, we're over here:
- Mapping out marketing strategies
- Planning connections
- Catching up on all the behind-the-scenes work that keeps things running
- Figuring out how to reach the people who desperately need what we offer

Because here's the thing: We're offering support that genuinely helps people. And if we don't take the time to let them know we exist, how will they find us?

So yeah, I'm working on a Saturday. Not because I don't value rest (I do), but because this work matters. The people who need these services matter.

Who else does the weekend grind? Drop a 🙋‍♀️ if you get it.

If you or a loved one is living independently at home, attending a senior resource fair could be one of the most valuable things you do this year.

Discover Support You Didn't Know Existed!

Many seniors miss out on programs and services simply because they don't know about them.

Resource fairs bring together dozens of organizations under one roof, making it easy to learn about meal delivery, transportation services, home modifications, Medicare counseling, and financial assistance programs that could make daily life easier and more affordable.

Even if you don't need certain services today, knowing what's available helps you plan for the future. Meet A Nurse in the Family to learn about home health care options, emergency response systems, and caregiver support now means you'll know exactly where to turn if your needs change down the road.

Unlike searching online or making endless phone calls, resource fairs let you speak face-to-face with knowledgeable representatives who can answer your specific questions, help with applications, and provide direct referrals tailored to your unique situation.

See you there!!

Protect Our Seniors!

After decades of work, sacrifice, and careful planning, your retirement funds should be there for YOU. Yet every day, vulnerable seniors face financial exploitation—often from the very people they trust most- family.

Imagine discovering your lifelong savings have been misappropriated just when you need them most for healthcare, housing, or simply maintaining your independence.

That's where Susan Long CLPF, NCG and I come in. We offer a unique combination that's rare in elder care:

- Fiduciary services to safeguard your financial future and ensure your money lasts

- Registered Nurse expertise to advocate for the quality healthcare you deserve

We understand that financial security and proper medical care go hand in hand. When your assets are protected and your healthcare needs are properly managed, you can age with dignity and peace of mind.

Don't wait until it's too late. Financial abuse and healthcare neglect can happen quickly, but early intervention makes all the difference.

Call us today to see how we can help.

My favorite part of the business so far has been celebrating birthdays with my clients. These clients are sick, scared, some live alone.

These seniors deserve to be celebrated.

My favorite part is knowing what they like and finding something to brighten their day. Being able to bring a moment of joy and recognition to people who might otherwise feel forgotten means everything to me.
