May is finally here! A little cold and a little hot but I guess we are used to it…
May brings us warmer weather, longer days, and a nice reminder to slow down and enjoy the little things. It’s also a great time to think about the people who’ve always been there for us—our aging loved ones—and how we can show up for them in simple, meaningful ways.
Sometimes it’s a quick phone call or a quick visit that can make a difference. But sometimes they are looking for your “expertise” in elder law, downsizing, physical therapy, or even adult day programs geared towards seniors with cognitive decline.
With so many questions, it’s almost impossible to be fully informed, but here at TASS, we have a wealth of knowledge and would LOVE to share it with you!!
Please take a look at our website www.tassgroup.org to see if any of our TASS skilled professionals could have the answers you are looking for!

Navigating Through The Local Healthcare System
Confused about Medicare, care options, and out-of-pocket costs? You’re not alone! Trying to make sense of the healthcare system can feel overwhelming—especially when caring for yourself or a loved one. Join a panel of local health care experts from The Alliance for Senior Services of New Jersey (TASS) as they break down what services are covered under Medicare, what expenses are typically private pay, and how to plan ahead to avoid unexpected costs. Participants will also learn about care planning, rehabilitation services, housing options, and trusted local resources. Learn how to access the right care, avoid costly surprises, and tap into trusted local resources. Walk away informed, empowered, and better prepared to make confident healthcare decisions for yourself or a loved one-without feeling like they have to do it alone. A light lunch will be provided to those who register.
