Elder Care Overload:  The Latest Threat to Workplace Productivity

After 15 years of outstanding performance, your best employee starts showing up late.  When she makes it to work, she misses deadlines and seems preoccupied.  Is she having personal problems?

As your employees age, so do their parents.  This creates new challenges.  How do you support valued employees without adding costly benefit programs, overloading co-workers or standing by helplessly as they leave to become full-time caregivers?  What can you do?

Refer your employees to Sandoval Legacy Group, A Professional Law Corporation. We specialize in helping families respond to all of the challenges of long-term illness and disability, including caregiving challenges that tax families long before nursing home care is needed.

Better yet, you can have one of our attorneys or care coordinators give a presentation to your employees about life care planning. Employees will learn about resources available to them to relieve the stress of caring for a loved one as well as strategies to preserve the elder’s income and assets, and how it can reduce the stress of caring for a loved one.

Hosting an educational seminar for employees or having your HR Department refer an employee who is dividing his or her attention between his or her duties as an employee and caring for a elderly parent will cost your firm little to nothing, but it can result in big dividends. Call Mr. Sandoval today at (951) 787-7711 to learn more.
