Caregiving often arrives without warning, and for many families, the weight of responsibility is compounded by not knowing where to turn. In this episode, we sit down with Lance A Slatton, whose plan to help his father recover from a fall turned into a nearly three‑year caregiving journey. His experience revealed just how many resources go undiscovered—and how isolating caregiving can feel when you don’t know what support exists.
Lance shares how that journey inspired him and his wife to build a business called Enriched Life Home Care Services dedicated to guiding caregivers toward the services, tools, and information that can make the road easier.
We also explore the importance of making decisions before circumstances make them for you, and how conversations about future care don’t have to be heavy or ominous—they can be empowering, practical, and rooted in love.
Lance A. Slatton is a Senior Case Manager at Enriched Life Home Care Services in Livonia, MI. He is also host of the award-winning podcast & YouTube channel All Home Care Matters & President of AlzAuthors. Through AlzAuthors Lance is helping expand access to a rich library of resources for families navigating dementia. This episode offers clarity, encouragement, and a reminder that no caregiver should have to walk this path alone and they can learn about the resources they may need during their caregiving journey.
