All Aboard: Transportation Options for Getting Around
Transportation needs and abilities can change as we get older. This course is designed to outline the various forms of public transportation San Diego county can offer seniors. Metropolitan Transportation Services (MTS) isn’t the only option, and they are working on creating new and better transportation options for seniors. Several transportation services and options exist for seniors while new means of getting around are being “rolled out” by state and local organizations as well as thoughtful entrepreneurs.

Viva Mexico!:
Assisted Living, Memory Care & In-Home Care Options in Mexico
Julie Derry and Kie Copenhaver were the first placement professionals to place clients in an assisted living community in Mexico. And they want to share some of the options available to seniors south of the border. This course will explore and explain how Assisted Living and Memory Care in Mexico differs from that offered in the United States: the services that are allowed in Mexico but are not offered in the United States, the cost for assisted living and memory care in Mexico, can I use the Aid and Attendance military benefit to pay for my care in Mexico, what do the communities look like and where are they located? Assisted Living and Memory Care in Mexico is more of an option than perhaps you first thought – come find out why.
