Paying for Senior Living: Smart Strategies for a Smooth Transition

The biggest concern families have about senior living isn’t whether it’s the right choice—it’s how to pay for it without draining everything at once.

If you’re exploring independent living, assisted living, or memory care—for yourself or a loved one—this workshop will give you a clear, practical understanding of the financial options available.

You’ll learn how families on the San Mateo Peninsula are navigating this transition using a combination of income, savings, insurance, and home equity—so decisions can be made thoughtfully, not under pressure.

In this workshop, you’ll learn:

• How to use home equity strategically to support senior living

• Loan and reverse mortgage options—explained in simple terms

• Local San Mateo County programs and resources you may not know about

• Real-life examples of how families successfully fund the move

You’ll also hear insights from the Executive Director of The Trousdale Senior Living Community, who will share what they see families do every day when making this transition.

Whether you’re planning ahead or facing a more immediate decision, this session is designed to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

Who Should Attend:

• Seniors considering a move to a senior living community

• Adult children helping parents plan next steps

• Families who want to understand financial options before making a decision
