Praise for The Question of When

“The Question of When is the best book on long-term care and post-acute placement I have ever read. It gives families the foundation before they need it: the vocabulary and trade-offs that almost nobody understands until a discharge planner is asking for a 72-hour decision.”Phil Fogg, President/CEO, Marquis Companies | Immediate Past Chairman, American Health Care Association (AHCA)

Industry & Professional Voices

“The Question of When addresses the most difficult decision point in the entire care journey: not what to do, but when to act. It brings clarity to a moment that is often delayed until a crisis forces the issue. What stands out is the practicality. The Question of When reflects the real patterns we see across assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing, where earlier, informed decisions consistently lead to better outcomes.”Anthony Laflen, Value-Based Care ExecutiveDirect endorsement, permission granted for website
