As we approach that “certain age,” we begin to panic about the care of our adult with a disability once we’re gone. Our initial response is generally one of denial. Sometimes, that works for a while. Then we realize the years don’t stand still. One of the things to consider that you may begin with is to begin to compile a person-centered support plan – a blueprint, if you will, about what’s important to, what’s important for, how best to support, and how best to help this person you love to live the life they want to lead.
Please join Trudy Marsh Grable, Credentialed Person-Centered Thinking & Planning Consultant and wise parent who walks the walk and talks the talk, as she provides an overview of how to work on your “exit plan,” and hopefully helps to provide you with some peace of mind.
At this webinar, you will learn:
- What a Person Centered One-Page Description (OPD) is – and how having multiple OPDs may be beneficial
- How to begin a person-centered support plan and why it’s important to have one
- How to introduce the topic of “the inevitable” to your loved one (and yourself)
This is the first in a 3-part series focusing on your exit plan.
