Planned Aging: A community resource aimed toward those who will be or are dealing with aging parents
Kline Galland Organization board chair, Bob Simon, will present to Rotarians a talk entitled, "Planning for Aging: A Community Resource Guide." This presentation provides valuable information about navigating senior care options, understanding available resources, and planning for the future. It’s designed to be a resource for the community and to spark discussions about a topic that impacts all families at some point,and is not a commercial for Kline Galland.
Throughout the years, Kline Galland has expanded its services, always with an eye to holding true to our mission to provide exceptional senior care. A century ago, palliative care, home care, and home health were senior care concepts of the future. Kline Galland serves thousands of people each year from throughout the Northwest, from skilled nursing care and rehabilitation at the Kline Galland Home, independent living, assisted living and memory support at the Mary Schwartz Summit, to an evolving and wide variety of Benaroya Community Services.
