Facing Diminished Capacity

Podcast: Download

It’s been more than 30 years since Dennis became a financial advisor. Prout Financial Design started with just a few class offerings, one staff member and very modest office space. It’s been an incredibly rewarding career … one that he doesn’t plan on leaving anytime soon. While most of his planning focus is spent on positive, profitable outcomes for his clients, Dennis must also have candid, matter-of-fact conversations with them and their families about facing diminishing capacity. It never seems to happen all at once, but over time the family starts to notice the signs of declining cognition – repeated conversations, missed or forgotten details, and various other memory impairments.
Today’s show is for anyone who is facing the same awakening and needs to know the proper steps to move forward. We all want the best for our loved ones, which includes assembling the proper team – and family – of support.
