Caregiver Masterclass Part II: Financial Preparedness for Caregivers

Description

RSVP Here

Caring for a loved one often means stepping into unfamiliar territory—especially when it comes to managing their finances. Did you know financial missteps can be one of the earliest signs of cognitive decline? A 2020 study from Johns Hopkins revealed that individuals with dementia were more likely to experience financial distress and subprime credit years before a diagnosis.

Whether you’re helping your parents with their bills, managing shared finances with a partner, or planning ahead for the unknown, this masterclass will equip you with the tools and confidence to take control. Join Kay Bransford, founder of MemoryBanc Daily Money Management and a seasoned caregiver herself, as she shares her journey and best practices for organizing finances during the caregiving process. You’ll also hear from Kim Fiske, who will provide essential tips on estate planning and long-term financial security.

This session will help you:

• Recognize early warning signs of financial decline
• Gain practical steps to manage and monitor household cash flow
• Learn strategies to collaborate effectively with family members
• Start organizing important financial and legal documents

Every participant will receive a complimentary What If Kit—a simple, yet powerful resource to help you get started with financial preparedness.

Take the guesswork out of caregiving finances—join us and feel more confident in your role.
