Guardianship Seminar at Platte County Resource Center


Our Senior Alliance had a table at the Guardianship Conference last Thursday. Terry Edwards, the Platte County Public Administrator, organized the conference which was such a success that there are already plans to hold it again next year.

Topics included Compliance Obligation of a Conservator, Social Security Disability, Advocacy and the Role of Hospice and Bankruptcy in a Conservatorship Authority. Professionals from around both states attended. It was a treat to talk to people in person that you usually only speak with over the phone.

Keeping up with the latest changes in laws affecting seniors is so important for those of us who work with seniors and their families on a regular basis. Thank you, Terry, for putting this together! I look forward to attending the conference again next year!
