Elder Care & Nursing Home Mediation
Deciding how to care for an aging parent can bring siblings together — or pull them apart. Elder care mediation helps families and care facilities talk honestly about safety, money, and responsibility so your loved one receives the care they deserve.

- Old family wounds resurface during an already stressful time.
How Nursing Home Mediation Works
Listen first
We speak with each family member to understand their concerns, history, and hopes for their loved one.
Facilitated family meeting
Everyone — including the older adult when possible — discusses options with a neutral guide keeping the focus on care.
Care agreement
We document responsibilities, decisions, and a plan for revisiting the arrangement as needs change.
