Financial planning

Stress and fear often delay financial planning when Alzheimer’s or other dementia is diagnosed. You can reduce stress by planning ahead.

Putting financial plans in place now allows the person with dementia to express wishes for future care and decisions. It also gives you time to work through the issues involved in long-term care.

ADRC of Oregon staff are available to help you explore your options to meet your current needs or create a plan for the future.

These four guides are available to help plan how to manage money and property, plan for future health care needs and services, and on making decisions for someone with dementia.
