Dear Savvy Senior,
My mother has several chronic health conditions and needs a home caregiver to help with daily activities. I know she wants to stay at home as long as possible, but how do I know when it’s time to consider an assisted living facility or nursing home?
Dear Savvy Senior,
I’d like to make my end-of-life arrangements, but I want to keep things simple and affordable. What are my options?

Dear Savvy Senior,
Since my dad passed away last year, my 82-year-old mother has struggled to keep up with her bills. She’s proud and insists on doing things herself, but I worry she’s falling behind. How can I help her manage her finances without upsetting her?
