“This is “What to Expect When You're Expecting” for those navigating care for an aging loved one. A practical, compassionate guide that families will return to again and again.” — Lauren Troise, Healthcare Executive
“Don't wait to read this book when your family is in crisis mode. A great book to read now and start the conversation about what you or the people closest to you want for their future support needs as they age.” — Leslie Pedtke, LNHA, author of What Living as a Resident Can Teach Long-Term Care Staff
Built for the moment families walk in unprepared.
Every hospital discharge planner, admissions director, home health intake coordinator, geriatric care manager, and elder law attorney has had the same conversation hundreds of times. A family arrives confused about the difference between assisted living and memory care. They don't know what Medicare covers. They don't know what questions to ask on a tour. They've never been here before, and they're making a decision on a timeline that doesn't give them room to learn.
The Question of When is the book you put in their hands. It answers the questions your team spends time answering every day. It gets families to the decision point with a shared vocabulary and a clearer head. It doesn't replace your team. It makes your team's time more valuable.

“An excellent resource, and I highly recommend it. As a senior living professional, I often encounter families in crisis situations. This book would be an invaluable resource and should be considered a must-read for any family with a parent navigating aging-related decisions.”— Barbara Beake, NHA, Senior Living Professional
“One of the most clear, honest guides I've seen. You can feel Cory's 30+ years in the field on every page. This isn't theory, it's lived experience. It tackles the hardest question (when is it time?) with both compassion and practicality. Cory turns a confusing, emotional decision into something families can actually navigate. Read it before you think you need it.”— Charles De Vilmorin, Senior Living Industry Veteran
“This is exactly the kind of tool I wish every family had before they ever needed this level of care. It provides clarity, education, and confidence at a time when people often feel lost. As a long-term care administrator, I see families every day who are trying to navigate this whole new world with very little preparation. I have purchased multiple copies to share with family, friends, coworkers, and admissions coordinators, and I plan to keep copies on hand for families at admission. I genuinely believe this book can reduce stress, improve decision-making, and lead to better outcomes for families.”— Kaiya Shrader, Long-Term Care Administrator
“Hands down best book ever on the topic of when to take action towards senior care.”— Anthony Laflen, Long-Term Care Executive
Thirty-four years inside long-term care.
Cory Fosco has spent his career in the industry families turn to at the hardest moments of their lives. He started in direct service through the Jesuit Volunteer Corps Southwest and the Mesa Senior Center, trained as a social worker, and has spent more than three decades working inside skilled nursing, assisted living, post-acute, and the technology that connects them.
The Question of When was written for families because Cory has watched too many of them arrive at the decision without the guidance they needed. The book is not about any one company or any one community. It's about families — and the professionals who serve them.
