The cornerstone of Eldercare Mediation is understanding that one of the parties may be experiencing some diminishment of capacity, either due to the natural process of aging, or due to a lifelong or recent disability.

Our Eldercare Mediators couple the compassion and sensitivity to address the issue of a party's diminished capacity, while at the same time include that individual in the decision making process to the greatest extent possible.

Mediation can help families manage and resolve their disputes, strengthen relationships, and preserve family members’ respect and dignity.

Our Eldercare Mediators are familiar with, and capable of facilitating a variety of family conflicts common to elder mediation, including:

* Disputes Among Adult Children About their Parents

* Housing and Living Arrangements

* Quality of Life: Car Keys, Transportation, Companions, etc.

* Care giving Issues, including Caregiver Role-Reversal Disputes

* Healthcare Planning and Decision-Making

* Disability and Special Needs Planning

* Financial Management Disputes

* Estate Planning and Probate Matters

* Medical Treatment Decisions

* Guardianship / Conservatorship Issues

* Consumer Issues

* Social Life and Activities

* Family Financial Issues

* Inheritance Disputes

* End-of-Life Decisions

Mediation has the potential to help older people, their families and their caregivers make important decisions and resolve controversies in ways that create stronger relationships and a greater sense of well-being for older or disabled individuals and their families.
