Speaker 1 (00:00):
And let's start out the segment with Dana. What do
you got to say, Nana?
Speaker 2 (00:06):
I wanted to ask him about the upscale assisted living
in the nursing homes. What does he have to offer
out there?
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Well, there, I mean when you say upscale, I mean,
I mean there's a lot of great communities. I mean
with upscale, I mean there are ccrcs, we call them
continuum care places where you have to you know, kick
in you know, half million dollars just to get on
the list and then you're on a you know, three
to five year wait list to get into the community.
There's a handful here that are you know, good options
(00:37):
for you know, that person that wants to do that.
You know, there's other upscale newer communities that are local
that are just as nice. I mean they may not
offer the continuum care component, but you can always have
that with skilled nursing outside of the community. So you know,
that's usually end of life. You know, the last six
months of your life is where you're going to need
a sniff or skilled nursing. So but you know, depends
(01:00):
on budget, it depends on location and levels of care.
So you know, those are the things that's the value
with care Patrol is talking with us. You know, instead
of getting on the internet and you know, doing your search,
you're just going to get a list and then all
of a sudden you're connected to these communities and you're
just gonna have a telemarketing friendsy with people chasing you.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
So, Dan, and what makes you think there's like fancier
ones is that's something I don't understand you. So are
you guys explaining that there's some that are super expensive
but you get extra extra stuff, or is there some
affordable ones?
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Or just as I was when one day I was
in I forget what store was in. There was a
chef in there and see he says, I am with
one of these upscale I sit in living and I'm
here shopping for today's meals.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Well, I mean right, I mean so, I mean that's
pretty hands on. I mean, I mean we know all
the communities that are you know, when I say upscale,
it's just there, you know, maybe run a little better,
I mean there, you know, it just depends on you
know the size of rooms at you on apartments. I
mean there's just a lot of so you know, that's
where you know, calling care Patrol Clumbus Care Patrol we
(02:11):
can actually you know, you know, dig into what your
your needs are, what your goal is, and then we
can put a plan together based on what your specific
needs are instead of going on the internet and just
doing to search all of a sudden, you know, ninety
percent of the communities that are chasing and now the
telemarketers are basically you know, aren't even a fit. So
you know, that's how care Patrol works with you know,
(02:32):
keeping your control, keeping you and maintaining your privacy. You know,
we know all the communities, so you know, that's the
expertise of what you know, Care Patrol offers.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
So yeah, because I picture like an executive from Nationwide
Insurance and invested all his money. His wife just passed away.
He doesn't want the house anymore. He sells his mc
mansion up in Mirrorfield and he doesn't want to live
in Marinover.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
So when he wants the cats, you know what.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Yeah, where's two or three good spots? I mean, and
you know, obviously again I usually don't. You know, that's
a beautiful part of Columbus Care patrols. We're neutral, you know,
we're an advocate for you. We're an advisor for you,
so you know, I'm not going to push you into anything.
When you go to a community on your own, you
have a sales and marketing person there, then they're usually
great people. I love them, I like working with them.
(03:16):
But the only thing they can sell you and promote
to you is that community. So they're gonna, you know,
kind of fashion their whole presentation just on what you
told them your needs. Are you talking with care Patrol? First,
We're gonna you know, we have a broader spectrum of options.
We're going to ask you more you know, pointed questions,
so then we know, specifically, here's the top five options
(03:36):
we feel are a good option. You know, let's go
pick out two and let's go to them, and it's.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Going to get a feel.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
I like what you're saying, and Dan, and I think
you get it too. Steve Germaine joined me sixteen years
ago on Auto Smarts and he said, as much as
I want to push Honda, there's still a lot of
other good manufacturers out there, So don't make it Honda
Honda Honda, because maybe someone does want a Toyot, or
if somebody does want one of his Cadillacs, or someone
was one of those Mercedes. So I am majority Honda,
(04:03):
but I also get if someone wants a Toyota, I'm
not going to push them towards a Honda.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
I'm going to tell you, Yeah, has.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
A lot of market share, and their tenders are because
they took away the eighth and they also downsize and
their fore runner. Uh, they took the six down and
they put a four stone under end. They're going to
do that the yeathers too, and well, I think to buy.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, let me let me tell you what's going Things
are changing now that Trump's in office because it was
going green, going green, going green. It was scaring the manufacturers.
And I think what you're going to like forward with
the stupid eco boost force cylinder. I think my opinion
when guys argue that they got as much power as
my three quarter ton.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
Diesel, No, there's nobody.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah, you know what, I can jump on a little
guy's back that's four foot tall, weighs one hundred and
twenty pounds and I weigh two thirty and he.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
Can run with me for about two feet and now
we plant.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
But if I jump on the back of a dude
it's seven foot tall and weighs three hundred pounds and
can lift three hundred pounds. Guys who can carry me
around like nothing. So it's just common sense, and it's
like care Patrol, Columbus car Patrol common sense, Dana, Thanks buddy.
You can't just get online throw mom and dad to
the wolfs. You need a personable guy like you to
(05:27):
coach you and help your parents in the life direction.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Yeah, Columbus Care Patrol has been here. We're going on
fourteen years. And you know the company or franchise, I mean,
we've existed since nineteen ninety three. So there's there's national coverage,
two hundred and fifty different care Patrol offices, but I'm
the local person. And yeah, I got a call today
from someone who heard me on Roy yesterday and you know,
I picked up and I talked to him on a
(05:50):
weekend because that's what we do. So we're very responsive.
You're gonna get a call back if and more importantly,
we're going to be on point with what your needs
are and helping just keep your family safe, coming up
with a plan if you need home care right now.
You know you get online again. There's dozens and dozens,
if not hundreds, of home care companies. You don't know
if they run them from their garage or you know,
if they're legit. We know the legit ones, So we're
(06:12):
gonna give you your top one two options face.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
When they call you, they don't have to push one
for English. I kind of like that exactly.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
So I speak clearing, Yeah, you speak clearing, and that
that's another frustration part. I tell you what I call
places like, Look, dude, I can't understand.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
But I they can understand me unless I you know.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
And I never had to deal with my parents being elderly, unfortunately,
and my dad died of brain cancer and my mom
just died of grief and old age before. But I
was getting close. She was getting to the point where
she was in her late sixties. She wasn't good on
her own. She was self medicating her medicines. And if
I wish that you were, we were had this connection,
(06:54):
I won't even radio. Back then, I could have brought
my mom and she said, oh, I know everything, and
she would have felt comfortable with you. We could have
placed her and made her Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
And that's where even if you call us today, and
I mean, most families are dealing with mom or dad
that are a loved one that's resistant, or you want
to stay at home.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
We get it.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Never contract with them that you're going to keep them
at home. You're going to keep them home until they're
no longer safe. So that's the part. And then we
have a lot of care guides that if you know,
if you call me, I can provide a good talking
point that all the siblings or children can have that
focuses on, you know, keeping them in control. But we
want to put a plan together and this is in
getting them to understand what they're doing, but just coming
(07:33):
up with a good plan. But you know our you know,
I have guides that have good talking points. I sent
one out last week to a family and the kids
are all over the country, moms here, and you know,
we were able to do a zoom call together and
talk face to face live, did that for a half hour.
And then you know we you know, have communities that
were ready to go tour. And the most important thing
is I send them a guide that just were good
(07:56):
you know good uh, you know, conversations, how to hand
to what, how to everybody be on the same page
and speak you know, emotionally with them. But you know intelligently.
So you know, we keep things calm and sure and
you may have to contract that, hey, we're going to
keep you at home, but when a crisis happens, then
we're gonna have a plan in place. And that's where
you call care Patrol six one four eighty eight save
(08:18):
or Columbus dot careportrol dot com and we put the
plan together because no one has a crystal ball of
if there's a crisis just right around the corner. And
with the winter coming, you know, there's families that we
don't like to say that their heads in the sand,
but you know, people just try to push it off
and push it off, and you know, and by the
time I'm usually talking with families or about you know,
(08:38):
a year behind when they should have made a plan
at least. So that's where the listeners today you hear
me call me because you know I'll help guide you
and there's no commitment, there's no obligation. We're free resource.
We do capture a fee if we help place at
the community, so you know, there's no charge to the family.
So call six one four eight eight eight safe.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
All right, we go to break and when we get
back on the tight exactly what Cammy's doing. I found
out from Mendy via text, and I want to share
with everybody because that's a proud moment for me. I'm
like the uncle from Afar, but she's my favorite one
on the plan man. One of the best athletes ever
been around in my life. This is raw Minia boots,
always protected by the undefeated American made Tattletale from the
hartlet Bang Studios on news radio six to ten WTV.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
In oh Boy.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
So let me give it the Cammi rundown right now.
So I thought I knew this, but I didn't want
to get it wrong. You know, I tend to do
that a lot, and I get hate meal. Let's see here,
Mindy just informed me.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
At the game, Cammi was asked to play for the
Florida Vibe, a pro softball team. They are playing expedition
game against Florida Gators.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Still short. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
It was one of the top teams in the country.
Cammy had the first hit of the game for the Vibe,
and then the second at bat they walked her.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
You know why they did that. She's playing shortstop.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
All girls on the Vibe played for top teams in
a nation Florida, Alabama, Tennessee and Clemson. It's a really
big honor for her and hopefully she's representing high stage.
Speaker 4 (10:14):
I guess she's the only one. And she got a hit,
and she got it a hit. I mean, she's a
maze balls.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But she's probably gonna go over to Italy and played
professional baseball there because why wouldn't you want her? She's positive,
she's smart, she's pretty, and she's an athlete.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
Gee, well box isn't marked.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
There's going to have an Italian son in law.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
Today that's hopefully has a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
So anyway, so Jim, when we were on break, we were,
we were, you were, I was kicking the can down.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
Retrose.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
If if if mom goes into assisted living, you place her,
but she only has two well, somebody places her, she
only has two years because in America now few years
what money.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
To Afflorida to play?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Okay, Unfortunately in America now, if you're a non working,
pot smoking method in bed but that you get the
government gives you everything. But these people have worked their
butt off their whole life. Their kids have stolen all
their equity. They already have any money, but they got
about fifty thousand dollars. What do you do with that person?
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Well, I mean you look at what their income is,
you know, if they were married or to a veteran,
if they were a veteran, or a pension for that.
So that's the value of time. So the part is
is just you know, and budget's always a concern with families.
Even if someone is affluent has funds, it's how do
you protect it? So we do have resources. I have
(11:33):
elder law attorneys. I mean, you know, Joe coming in
from peak performance or peak finances, retirement, peak retirement, he
has an older lot attorney. It can help out. But
the key is, you know, we can always put a
plan in place. How to you know, protect assets. You know,
I'm not the expert, but I have experts that can
do that.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Right.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
The other side is you know if someone you know,
typically the average cost of senior living, depending on level
of care and you know the location, in the size
of the room, can be you know, around six grand
a month. So you just do the math. You know,
that's seventy two grand a year times two. If you
have assets and income that can cover that for two years.
You know, I know of a handful of community is
that allowed?
Speaker 4 (12:12):
But asset it's the only worth what someone will pay for.
What do you mean by.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
As assets is just that you know, if you have
a home that you need to sell, where if you
have you know, income, but you have a little bit
of you know, you know, funds sitting there on the side.
I mean to get into a community. You know, we
know communes that will I don't use the word budget friendly,
but are ones that you know will help you privately
pay for two years and if you are fund you know,
(12:36):
out of funds, you can get on there's a high
Medicaid waiver where they can still stay at that community.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
So and so let me say that.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
So you're telling me that if they go online and
just say boom, they made a stick them in on
some sort of help and then two years from now it's.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
Like bye, that's what happens. And then you stop that
and they'll they'll talk to you like, hey, when we
get to that point, we'll show you options, but they
don't have options. They're going to just push you into
more of a long term care facility. You do well,
there's long term care facilities that are you know, good options,
but you're gonna have a roommate and it's more institutional feeling,
and you're gonna get care, but it's not assisted living.
(13:17):
So you know that's the part where you know the
value of care Patrol. When you call Columbus Care Patrol
six one four eighty eight eight safe, you're gonna you know,
we're going to ask you these pointed questions. We're going
to look and see if you have memory care needs
now or if someone has dementia. You know, we want
to find a community has memory care as a backup
option if you ever need to so you don't have
to pull them out and start over again.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
Why wouldn't they call you?
Speaker 1 (13:37):
That's what I mean. That drives me nuts. So we
got to get the word out there of anybody listening. Please,
if you have a friend, family, yourself, or anyone in
your world and clients, yeah, don't let Yeah you're an
investment banker, you're a banker. Let's just say you're a
teller and you see the lady coming in and she's
kind of tripping and on a walk.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
Yeah, so you know when people are going out, we.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Get families that connect with us. Yeah, that way we're
more word of mouth. I mean, if you go on
the Internet and find us great. But you know there's
the glias out there that are just to control the
Internet and they capture your information and all they're going
to do is disperse, you know, list of ten names
of communities and then you basically have everyone chasing you,
and ninety percent of them may not be a fit.
(14:18):
So we prevent that, you know, we stop that. We
maintain privacy, your control, and we work with the and
there's a lot of community that may not work with that.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
We got a heartbreak, So stick around when Joe gets
here because I want to cover that. So this is
Raw Minion Boots on news radio six ten WTVN
And let's start out the segment with Dana. What do

focuses on, you know, keeping them in control. But we
want to put a plan together and this is in
getting them to understand what they're doing, but just coming
(07:33):
up with a good plan. But you know our you know,
I have guides that have good talking points. I sent
one out last week to a family and the kids
are all over the country, moms here, and you know,
we were able to do a zoom call together and
talk face to face live, did that for a half hour.
And then you know we you know, have communities that
were ready to go tour. And the most important thing
is I send them a guide that just were good
(07:56):
you know good uh, you know, conversations, how to hand
to what, how to everybody be on the same page
and speak you know, emotionally with them. But you know intelligently.
So you know, we keep things calm and sure and
you may have to contract that, hey, we're going to
keep you at home, but when a crisis happens, then
we're gonna have a plan in place. And that's where
you call care Patrol six one four eighty eight save
(08:18):
or Columbus dot careportrol dot com and we put the
plan together because no one has a crystal ball of
if there's a crisis just right around the corner. And
with the winter coming, you know, there's families that we
don't like to say that their heads in the sand,
but you know, people just try to push it off
and push it off, and you know, and by the
time I'm usually talking with families or about you know,
(08:38):
a year behind when they should have made a plan
at least. So that's where the listeners today you hear
me call me because you know I'll help guide you
and there's no commitment, there's no obligation. We're free resource.
We do capture a fee if we help place at
the community, so you know, there's no charge to the family.
So call six one four eight eight eight safe.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
All right, we go to break and when we get
back on the tight exactly what Cammy's doing. I found
out from Mendy via text, and I want to share
with everybody because that's a proud moment for me. I'm
like the uncle from Afar, but she's my favorite one
on the plan man. One of the best athletes ever
been around in my life. This is raw Minia boots,
always protected by the undefeated American made Tattletale from the
hartlet Bang Studios on news radio six to ten WTV.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
In oh Boy.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
So let me give it the Cammi rundown right now.
So I thought I knew this, but I didn't want
to get it wrong. You know, I tend to do
that a lot, and I get hate meal. Let's see here,
Mindy just informed me.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
At the game, Cammi was asked to play for the
Florida Vibe, a pro softball team. They are playing expedition
game against Florida Gators.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Still short. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
It was one of the top teams in the country.
Cammy had the first hit of the game for the Vibe,
and then the second at bat they walked her.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
You know why they did that. She's playing shortstop.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
All girls on the Vibe played for top teams in
a nation Florida, Alabama, Tennessee and Clemson. It's a really
big honor for her and hopefully she's representing high stage.
Speaker 4 (10:14):
I guess she's the only one. And she got a hit,
and she got it a hit. I mean, she's a
maze balls.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But she's probably gonna go over to Italy and played
professional baseball there because why wouldn't you want her? She's positive,
she's smart, she's pretty, and she's an athlete.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
Gee, well box isn't marked.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
There's going to have an Italian son in law.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
Today that's hopefully has a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
So anyway, so Jim, when we were on break, we were,
we were, you were, I was kicking the can down.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
Retrose.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
If if if mom goes into assisted living, you place her,
but she only has two well, somebody places her, she
only has two years because in America now few years
what money.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
To Afflorida to play?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Okay, Unfortunately in America now, if you're a non working,
pot smoking method in bed but that you get the
government gives you everything. But these people have worked their
butt off their whole life. Their kids have stolen all
their equity. They already have any money, but they got
about fifty thousand dollars. What do you do with that person?
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Well, I mean you look at what their income is,
you know, if they were married or to a veteran,
if they were a veteran, or a pension for that.
So that's the value of time. So the part is
is just you know, and budget's always a concern with families.
Even if someone is affluent has funds, it's how do
you protect it? So we do have resources. I have
(11:33):
elder law attorneys. I mean, you know, Joe coming in
from peak performance or peak finances, retirement, peak retirement, he
has an older lot attorney. It can help out. But
the key is, you know, we can always put a
plan in place. How to you know, protect assets. You know,
I'm not the expert, but I have experts that can
do that.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Right.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
The other side is you know if someone you know,
typically the average cost of senior living, depending on level
of care and you know the location, in the size
of the room, can be you know, around six grand
a month. So you just do the math. You know,
that's seventy two grand a year times two. If you
have assets and income that can cover that for two years.
You know, I know of a handful of community is
that allowed?
Speaker 4 (12:12):
But asset it's the only worth what someone will pay for.
What do you mean by.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
As assets is just that you know, if you have
a home that you need to sell, where if you
have you know, income, but you have a little bit
of you know, you know, funds sitting there on the side.
I mean to get into a community. You know, we
know communes that will I don't use the word budget friendly,
but are ones that you know will help you privately
pay for two years and if you are fund you know,
(12:36):
out of funds, you can get on there's a high
Medicaid waiver where they can still stay at that community.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
So and so let me say that.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
So you're telling me that if they go online and
just say boom, they made a stick them in on
some sort of help and then two years from now it's.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
Like bye, that's what happens. And then you stop that
and they'll they'll talk to you like, hey, when we
get to that point, we'll show you options, but they
don't have options. They're going to just push you into
more of a long term care facility. You do well,
there's long term care facilities that are you know, good options,
but you're gonna have a roommate and it's more institutional feeling,
and you're gonna get care, but it's not assisted living.
(13:17):
So you know that's the part where you know the
value of care Patrol. When you call Columbus Care Patrol
six one four eighty eight eight safe, you're gonna you know,
we're going to ask you these pointed questions. We're going
to look and see if you have memory care needs
now or if someone has dementia. You know, we want
to find a community has memory care as a backup
option if you ever need to so you don't have
to pull them out and start over again.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
Why wouldn't they call you?
Speaker 1 (13:37):
That's what I mean. That drives me nuts. So we
got to get the word out there of anybody listening. Please,
if you have a friend, family, yourself, or anyone in
your world and clients, yeah, don't let Yeah you're an
investment banker, you're a banker. Let's just say you're a
teller and you see the lady coming in and she's
kind of tripping and on a walk.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
Yeah, so you know when people are going out, we.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Get families that connect with us. Yeah, that way we're
more word of mouth. I mean, if you go on
the Internet and find us great. But you know there's
the glias out there that are just to control the
Internet and they capture your information and all they're going
to do is disperse, you know, list of ten names
of communities and then you basically have everyone chasing you,
and ninety percent of them may not be a fit.
(14:18):
So we prevent that, you know, we stop that. We
maintain privacy, your control, and we work with the and
there's a lot of community that may not work with that.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
We got a heartbreak, So stick around when Joe gets
here because I want to cover that. So this is
