  • Healthy Living - AARP's suite of web-based health tools will help individuals to stay healthy and plan ahead. Tools in the suite will help individuals calculate BMI, decode confusing Medicare summary notices, and estimate the cost of long-term care. www.aarp.org/healthtools
  • Care to Talk - Role of a family caregiver is complex and challenging. Whether caring for a parent, spouse, relative, close friend or neighbor, the number of tasks can sometimes feel overwhelming. To compound this, family caregivers often lack the skills to start or sustain vital conversations with those they care for because these discussions are often difficult and uncomfortable. That’s why AARP created Care To Talk? — a virtual platform of discussion topics meant to spark meaningful dialogue between caregivers and care recipients and address important life issues and long-term healthcare plans.
