The Aged Care Advice Process
​
Every aged care case is different and we use a unique approach for every client. There is no single ‘one-size-fits-all’ formula. As your aged care financial advisers I will consider the different circumstances, resources, options and emotional factors to determine the most suitable solution required to help each client.
​
Still, there are common steps in the process that remain constant for each client. This is a collaborative, transparent process that we always follow in order to provide clear, concise financial advice that delivers results for our clients:
