LifeStages’ Elder Mediation

LifeStages’ Elder Mediation services can turn conflicts into constructive solutions

VNA's LifeStages Elder Mediators work with elders, their families, friends or other supporters to create a workable, constructive plan for aging. Our experienced mediators help the parties involved communicate about difficult topics that might be impeding important decisions.

There are many situations that can benefit from a mediation session, including:

  • When the elder or family member is in denial about the elder’s situation
  • When issues around the elder’s financial matters need to be addressed
  • When one family member feels he or she is shouldering all of the responsibility
  • When one family member wants to move the elder but others disagree
  • When one family member has removed things from the home against another’s wishes

Our Elder Mediators will help determine who needs to be at the meeting and will work to identify the mediation goals conferring with each person in advance – all the while keeping the elder in mind. This process enables everyone to be heard and results in a workable solution that respects the elder and preserves relationships.
