Free Elder Care Consultant
Service Agreement
One pissed-off heir looking for a scapegoat will drain your retirement account faster than a hospital bill. Without a signed contract, you're just a walking target for every 'financial elder abuse' lawsuit a grieving family can cook up.
Pro Contractor Tip
Include a 'Limitation of Liability' clause to cap your financial exposure at the total cost of the contract so you don't lose your house over one bad day.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Elder Care Consultant, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do I do when the family starts demanding I run errands or pick up groceries?
That's scope creep, and it'll kill your margins. A written 'Scope of Work' allows you to point to the contract and charge an 'Additional Services' fee or simply say no before you become an unpaid personal assistant.
How do I ensure I get paid if the client passes away before the project is done?
You don't work for free, dead or alive. Your agreement should specify that fees are a priority debt against the estate, ensuring you aren't left empty-handed while the kids fight over the inheritance.
What happens if they ignore my advice and then try to blame me for a fall or injury?
You use a 'Non-Guaranty of Outcome' clause. It documents that you're an advisor, not a 24/7 bodyguard, and keeps the blame—and the legal bills—where they belong when a family ignores your safety reports.
