Book Description
The senior years can be daunting, for spouses, children, other caregivers, and seniors themselves. Too often a sudden crisis leaves a family unprepared and feeling helpless. Chronic illnesses and limited funds can present difficult and emotional choices regarding care or housing. Rules and resources vary from state to state. Everyone can use help from experienced professionals in understanding them. Boyer and Shapiro provide Nevada-specific information\--medical, legal, and financial\--on the wide range of problems that arise during the elder years. Case studies show how a typical family copes with troubles such as failing health or financial cares and what options they have. This guide will help any Nevada resident plan for their own senior years and take care of aging parents, spouses, and other loved ones.

Book Description
From Davenport Publishing this easy to use book about Estate Planning in Nevada has ready to use legal forms to help control health care, property, money, children, funeral, and more if a person is later absent, sick, or dead. Many of the legal forms are the standard Nevada legal forms that doctors and judges prefer. Go to www.davenportpublishing.com to see books and legal forms. The Nevada legal forms provided are: - - AFTER DEATH FORMS - - Form 1. Will (Standard) - a Will (also called a "Last Will And Testament") lets person control things after their death like who gets their money and property, who is Executor, and allowing helpful legal options later. Form 2. Will (Guardian) - Will with part added to name someone as Guardian to care for a minor child under 18 if later needed (like if later no parent is available) and also manage a child's money and property. Form 3. Handwritten Will - this Will skips the usual need for 2 witnesses which saves time and work, but it must be all handwritten by person doing the Will (so no use of typing, computers, or legal forms). Form 4. Self-Proving Affidavit - form sometimes done with a Will to later prove it was properly signed. Form 5. Tangible Personal Property List - lets person easily outside Will write some more gifts to occur after death of "tangible personal property" like furniture, jewelry, vehicles, art, electronics, tools, and clothes. - - HEALTH CARE FORMS - - Form 6. Durable Power Of Attorney For Health Care - this popular form lets a person be named as Health Care Agent to if needed control health care and also lets health care instructions be written. Form 7. Living Will Declaration - lets a person do serious act of saying stop most health care if later they are incapacitated and doctors think the health situation is very bad and more care likely won't help. Form 8. Do-Not-Resuscitate - does serious act of saying from now on don't try resuscitation to help breathing or heart like C.P.R. (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation), and form is short so can be read quickly. - - GIVING POWER FORMS - - Form 9. Statutory Form Power Of Attorney - lets power over money, property, and more be given to a trusted person made Agent so they have legal power to do things, like use accounts, pay bills, and sell items. Form 10. Temporary Guardian - lets parent of a child under age 18 give someone power over the child so they can make decisions about health care, school, home, and more if needed. Form 11. Affidavit Authorizing Person To Order Burial Or Cremation - lets a person to later control their dead body give someone power over burial, cremation, and related things and write some suggestions. Also provided is the Estate Planning Helpful Information form to help pass on information to family and friends. See www.davenportpublishing.com to see books and legal forms.

Individuals or families receiving a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, dementia, or brain damage from a stroke face daunting questions: how to provide care when the patient can no longer manage his or her own affairs, how to protect their rights and property, where to go for help, and how to cope with the day-to-day challenges of fading memory and diminished cognition.
