If you’ve got aging parents or grandparents, odds are, they’re being targeted by scammers.
The fraudsters often use databases to identify seniors. They call them posing as IRS agents, computer tech support or a family member to try to steal money.
“I can’t tell you how many cases I’ve seen where, here’s a list of 400,000 people over the age of 75, and that’s the only people they called,” explained Doug Shadel, AARP director for Washington.
We created this website to help you avoid some of the stresses we experienced during a crisis situation while caring for our grandmother. We faced urgent decisions regarding her care, but we didn’t know where to find the information to make smart choices. Our goal is to provide a starting point to help you find information, services and other resources in your search for senior care. Our hope is that this site can provide you with a first step to finding reliable care for your loved one.
