Lifecare is a program that aids in the protection of financial assets. It answers the most asked question of retired individuals: "Will my assets last as long as I do?" By purchasing lifecare for a set fee, individuals have the assurance of knowing that the remainder of their income will be protected in the event of the need for assisted living or long-term skilled nursing care. Imagine if you could buy a new car this year and pay sticker price from 20 years ago! You would jump at the opportunity. Purchasing lifecare guarantees you will have care in the future when you need it. You will have already paid for that future care with an investment made in today's dollars. Even as prices for skilled nursing care and healthcare increase, you have already locked in your investment. Lifecare answers the question of whether a person will be able to afford long-term care in the future. The price of lifecare at Shell Point includes long-term care for life. Rarely do both spouse's in a marriage remain equally healthy for an equally long period of time. By purchasing lifecare, couples ensure that the appropriate levels of amenities and services will be available to both spouses simultaneously, for life. This allows the couple to main their independence for much longer periods of time. Lifecare provides a safety net of services that allows the couple to maintain a close, loving relationship while either spouse receives the care he or she needs and deserves.Lifecare provides the opportunity to maintain quality of life as we progress through the continuum of life. The services provided by a lifecare community, and a contract for care, assure the details that provide meaningful quality of life will be available as the years pass. At a certain point in our experience, we may desire to exchange the full-time maintenance of a home for the added benefit of amenities and an upscale lifestyle afforded by a resort-like setting. Decades later, our health may dictate the need for skilled nursing care. As energy levels decline, the need for services increases. Ultimately, lifecare is designed to meet the needs of the individual at every level of the retirement experience.Important Concerns
