Being prepared is one thing, but not having the correct knowledge and fortitude to make sure your loved one is getting the care they need, is another. Featured in this episode is Jeff Duffield and his sister, Susan Kuff, along with host, Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly, as they converse quite candidly the near disaster of caregiving and a NJ nursing home. This true account of Jeff and Susan’s uncle and the journey they had to consistently walk, is not new nor is it uncommon. With supplementary insurance scams and television commercials that make eldercare look easy and affordable, it’s no wonder that seniors find it so cunningly attractive.
Susan Kuff, a CIGNA professional and one who has counseled many in this Medicare/Supplemental area, found herself in the same predicament as those she counsels. She and her brother, Jeff, fought the system through countless lies and deceit. The best part of this episode is the vulnerable reality that care partnering has to be relentless, not leaving one stone uncovered.
