Your loved ones will need increasing support as they age.
Sometimes it takes a catalyst like a fall or a stroke. Sometimes their mental capacity slowly declines. It happens to the best of us, and you have more options than you think.
LET ME HELP
First of all, I know this is hard.
Your loved one doesn’t want to lose their independence.
You need to keep them safe and happy.
Serious medical events (like a broken hip) can trigger a domino effect on your loved one’s lifestyle. Dementia and Alzheimer's can make you feel like you're trying to navigate a maze when the walls keep rearranging.
Good news for you, I have the map.
I’ll walk this maze with you.
LET'S MAKE A MAP
Let's find the perfect solutions for your family.
No one prepares you for senior care. There's no training manual, they don't teach this in school. The good news is, there are brilliant products and strategies that would never cross your mind until you talk to an elder care advisor like myself that change everything.
Let's talk about your loved one's...
- Heath and Immediate Needs
- Roadmap of Medical Care
- Home Safety Evaluation and Tools
- Communication and Support Networks
- Insurance, Legal and Financial Planning
- Rehabilitation and Long-Term Care Planning
- Emotional Support and Well-Being (for you and them)
It's not what you know, it's who you know.
And I know some truly incredible East Valley resources.

Hi, I’m Terri Izard.
I'm the Founder of Aging Agendas and Senior Care Advisor.
This work is personal to me. I’ve been through this process four times with my own parents and in-laws. Dementia, cancer, home care, mental health concerns...I felt like I was drowning.
More than a decade later, I've helped so many families find the right professionals, tools, and solutions in even the most stressful cases. My favorite moments are when I visibly see the weight lift off my clients' shoulders.
My goal is to hold your hand through it all. You are not alone, even though you may feel that way right now. I'll cry with you and cheer you up with the occasional homemade cookie.
You can do this. I can help you.

I found an incredible brand for you. MAGNA-READY makes dressing easier for seniors with fine motor skill concerns. Check out all the awesome styles they offer – I hope you love them as much as I do.
TRY MAGNA-READYI have an affiliate relationship with MAGNA-READY, so I may receive a small commission at zero cost to you. That said, know that I would never recommend a product that I'm not absolutely ecstatic about.
Caregiving responsibilities affect everything. Your time, finances, and mental health as a start.
But with the right support, strategies, and resources...
I promise you can survive it.
Our first hour is 100% free and I love to help.
Let me give you all the resources I can pack into 60 minutes as well as a roadmap for next steps. After that, my rate is $125/hr for as long as you need.
