Understanding Guardianship, Power of Attorney + More with Kate Lietz, MSW, LSW

Remember Me

This week we talk all about Guardianship, Power of Attorney, Long Term Care... and other "scary" and confusing terms that can come up when planning care for your loved one. All with the help of Kate, a social worker at the Penn FTD Center.

But before that, we dive into our friend Keri's personal experience getting Guardianship for her father, Mark. We recorded this interview last fall, and in February, Mark passed away after a very long journey with FTD.

We want to take a minute to acknowledge Keri for the amazing job she did caring for her dad...all while being a wife, raising her little kids and being a fierce FTD advocate. You're a superhero, Keri.
