On one of her last trips to the hospital, my mother’s care team gave me a small brochure on Oasis Senior Advisors. It proved to be invaluable—ultimately helping our family lay the groundwork for moving our father to an assisted living facility, setting up a trust, and applying for Medicaid.
I think of Oasis as a resource center set up to help individuals and families navigate a multitude of elder issues: care options, coordinating transition of care, elder law, dementia/Alzheimer’s care, hospice/palliative care, family conflict mediation, mobility issues, veterans benefits, and advocacy. Through their vast network of service providers, Oasis can connect individuals with the options, resources, and information needed to care for elders.
In our case, Oasis recommended Attorney Stacy Vogeltanz, who practices estate planning and elder law. With her first phone call and from then on, Stacy has had our father’s and our family’s best interests at heart. Better still, she’s an expert in what she does. I’ll talk more about her in a future post; for now, I just want it known we wouldn’t have connected with Stacy had it not been for Oasis.
And Kaitlyn Day, one of the Oasis Senior Advisors, has always been so helpful whenever I’ve called needing information. Friendly and quick to reply, she’s the one who put me in touch with Stacy Vogeltanz and, more recently, provided me the name of a financial advisor regarding long-term care policies.
Oasis has a huge knowledge base to draw upon and staff that knows how to access it effectively. What’s more, they offer FREE assistance. If you need any help whatsoever with elder issues, I strongly suggest that you call Oasis first. Of course, I’d recommend you start with Kaitlyn. The phone number is (262) 777-0462.
