Testimonials:

"As a Geriatric Care Manager, I work with families who are often conflicted about elders who are in transition.  Family members want to do "what is best" for their relatives, but are sometimes at odds about the best means of arriving at consensus as a group when faced with difficult, emotional decisions.  I recently attended an Elder Decisions Conflict Resolution Skills for Eldercare Professionals workshop and found the valuable skills I learned to be very helpful when working with families.  I would highly recommend attending an Elder Decisions workshop to any professional who works with elders and their families." 
Michael Novack, LICSW, Geriatric Care Manager, Elder Resources

“I want to re-iterate how valuable I found the seminar. Having reviewed the notebook and my notes, I am realizing how much I gained! It was an excellent experience...I am hoping you will do more trainings for those of us who are interested.  Thank you again for a really worthwhile day!”
