“My clients said they were very happy with your

services and spoke very highly. Sometimes folks

don’t understand that to get high quality service

may cost a little, but not having the service can

cost way more. Sounds cliché but it is a

real matter.”

Attorney, Allen M

“When my father was dying, Rebecca handled

his massive insurance problems, allowing me to

days. Not having to be on the phone was a

Why call The Aging Space? To reduce stress and worry - to restore peace of mindYou call because your aging family member’s lifestyle is no longer working and none of you know the right

questions to ask and how to solve the problems. Adult children call when their parents’ health conditions,

memory problems, or who live far away make them worry. Aging adults, especially someone who is alone,

call us because they are worried about losing independence, dignity, friends and their connections in the

community. Who would call The Aging Space?

Family members, aging adults, doctors, lawyers,

trust officers, guardians, counselors, and others.

What we provideWe provide a problem-solver and a researcher with

extensive local networks and life experience. We

assess, advocate, advise and oversee all aspects

of the aging adult’s life – with an eye towards

improving it. We bring an understanding of the

physical, emotional and mental complexities of

aging and we help to solve problems to achieve

the client’s maximal functional potential. We are

paid privately, often by the adult children of the

client. One son said: “The cost of the problem was

far more expensive and consequential than the

cost of the solution.”
