Professional Practices for Seniors

seniors receiving adviceTransitioning to a senior lifestyle presents both opportunities and challenges; the mission of OurSeniors.net is to help seniors and their loved ones enjoy the opportunities and meet the challenges of a successful senior life transition. Unfortunately, the truth is that most people do not go about the transition process in a well-planned, orderly way. Instead, they just let it happen, meaning that a lot can go wrong.
This is understandable. A successful transition to a senior lifestyle involves making decisions in multiple areas, subjects with which the senior may have little or no experience.  There are decisions to be made about medical issues, legal affairs, residences, real estate, care giving, finance and tax matters, and the list goes on. These choices are critical to the future health and happiness of the senior involved, and no one person has the skills to handle them all. Sometimes, it may seem as that it hardly pays to be retired.
Meeting these challenges is the core purpose of the Senior Transition Pro Team, an important part of the OurSeniors.net family. The Senior Transition Pro Team is a network of independent professionals in medicine, law, finance, taxation, estate planning and real estate. Each of these professionals has a special sensitivity to the unique needs and requirements of OurSeniors, the senior population. Together, the Pro Team can accomplish tasks that no one individual could successfully undertake. By turning to the Senior Transition Pro Team, seniors and their loved ones can find the highly competent advice and professional guidance needed to make a safe, satisfying, secure and happy move to senior life.
Each one of these pros has the insight into senior needs required to practice their profession in a way that best serves seniors. To a realtor, this might mean knowledge of wheelchair accessibility in a given building, easy access to public transportation, handicap parking or security issues. What about the 55+ communities in Florida, the exciting retirement communities in Florida, the availability of memory care and dozens of other issues that a senior may have.
OURSENIORS.NET Senior Transition Pro Team LogoAn attorney who serves the senior population should be an expert in the legal issues that seniors face and the essential documents every senior should have. Medical directives (a living will), a will, a healthcare power of attorney, and a financial power of attorney should all be included. But how does a senior or their family go about finding a qualified Florida attorney who is absolutely an expert in these matters?
Finance and tax matters can be equally complicated for seniors. How does your earned income affect Social Security benefits? When is the best time to start taking Social Security benefits? What about taxes paid on annuity or trust income, how can you move your assets to probate-free states? All of these are questions that a Florida CPA or financial advisor who specializes in senior-related issues can answer.
