Life Transition benefit expands to all members

The unexpected can happen at any moment, and in that moment, one’s life can change dramatically – particularly for older adults. A sudden fall can mean a move to a new living facility. A spousal illness may require support services that are difficult to find.

TRAIL’s Life Transition Service was created to help our Full members cope with these kinds of situations and more. Because we recognize that the unexpected can happen to any of us, at any time, we are pleased to announce that this valuable service is now available to all TRAIL members. Affiliate members may now receive two one-hour Life Transition consultations per household each year. (Full members receive unlimited sessions.)

At the member’s request, a TRAIL Life Transition volunteer will meet with to learn about your current circumstances and identify concerns, possible solutions, and resources to alleviate existing or anticipated problems. Common life transition issues include a health or family emergency, a change in living conditions, or a desire to make a personal care plan. The Life Transition volunteer may assist you in putting an agreed-upon transition plan into place.

Our Affiliate members’ experience with the Life Transition Service will be reevaluated after one year to ensure this new benefit is well utilized and valued.
