All types of senior services and products providers are now available for caregiving needs.  The adult child often helps make financial, health care, senior housing and legal decisions.

Caregivers: An estimated 54 million American caregivers help with elderly parents or relatives.  Often, long-distance caregivers must make all kinds of decisions with additional help from senior-servicing professionals.  These decisions may include selecting a specific senior housing choice: assisted living, continuing care communities, retirement living communities, residential health care facilities, nursing homes or other living arrangements.

Assisted Living: Over one million older Americans live in assisted living communities and facilities. Assisted living community residents may be offered personal and health care services along with housekeeping, laundry and meals.
