At some point as we grow older, we all approach a fork in the road, says Joy Loverde, author of “The Complete Eldercare Planner: Where to Start, Which Questions to Ask, and How to Find Help.”

Whether we veer toward a thriving finish to life or toward a struggling end depends on how we plan, Loverde recently told an audience of approximately 50 during a presentation at The Samarkand, a Covenant Retirement Community in Santa Barbara.

“Providing useful information to our residents and the local community is one of our main goals,” says Pam Bigelow, sales director, The Samarkand. “Covenant Retirement Communities has a wealth of resources available to assist both older adults and caregivers. Programs like this one help get that information into the hands of those who can use it.”
