Here is a brief review of the most common documents to be used in elder care planning.

Most legal documents must be researched, written and signed while you are mentally capable. Do not wait for onset of illness or take a chance that a stroke or other physical trauma will render you mentally unsound. Some of the documents can be done by you and signed by a Notary Public.
