Nursing Home Crisis Planning
When a client becomes institutionalized in a Nursing Home it may cost the family up to $100,000 or more per year to cover out-of-pocket expenses. This can quickly cause financial stress for the family and creates the immediate need for Crisis Planning. Through the Crisis Planning Strategy, we demonstrate to the client how our proven strategies will alleviate and avoid the financial burden of the nursing home. Our job is to get the client approved for Medicaid benefits as quickly and efficiently as possible, regardless of the amount of assets.
Nursing Home Asset Protection Planning
Nursing Home Asset Protection Planning is essential to preserve the family's assets before transitioning into a Skilled Nursing Facility. Golden Shield Essentials utilizes our extensive knowledge base, experience, and network of Elder Law Attorneys to ensure you are getting every tax advantage to avoid liquidation of assets due to tax liability. Every family is different, so we customize each plan specifically to the individual's wants and needs.
VA Aid & Attendance
Veteran's Aid and Attendance is a little-known Pension Program designed for Qualifying Veterans, Spouses of Veterans, and Widows of Veterans to help pay long-term care costs. This benefit can pay up to $2,295 per month to a married couple, $1,936 for a single veteran, or $1,244 to a Widow of a Veteran. Consulting with a knowledgeable professional is essential to ensure you qualify for these benefits.
If you are a veteran planning on selling your home, we highly recommend consulting with our knowledgeable professionals before you make the sale. We want to ensure you do not disqualify yourself from these important valuable benefits.
Real Estate Sales & Services
Whether you're looking for your perfect property, selling a family estate or seeking a starter home, we are here to guide you with decades of experience. Our Golden Shield Real Estate Team is highly experienced and will handle your listing or auction with a commitment to protecting your best interests and those of your family.
Long-Term Care Advances
Our Long Term Care Advance is a benefit of the Rapid Relocation Program. This Product is designed to help bridge the gap between someone needing to sell their home in order to transition into a Long Term Care facility. Upon approval, we will advance funds to pay for Long Term Care expenses while waiting to sell your property.
Making the Right Choice
The multifaceted services Golden Shield Essentials has not only makes us the right choice for you and your family but the only logical choice. Within our family of companies and the services we provide, we not only offer loans and Real Estate services, but also make sure those assets are protected from the Nursing Home, qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, and either reduce or eliminate estate taxes. We make sure you and your loved ones can inherit assets efficiently while maintaining steady growth using our asset growth portfolio of products. Our network of Elder Law attorneys ensures you possess the most up-to-date and compliant documentation, such as Wills, Powers of Attorney, Advanced Directives, and any other necessary documents for this transition period.
