EDUCATION SESSIONS
If you, a family member, friend or co-worker would like to find out more about long-term care, the costs related to it, how to plan for long-term care needs, what Medicare and Medicaid will cover and how the Long-Term Care Partnership Program can help you, now is your chance.
Since September 2007, the State of South Dakota has worked to educate and inform citizens through FREE education sessions open to the public. These sessions provide the information you need today so you can prepare and decide what is best for you and your family tomorrow.
Below is a listing of the educational sessions for this spring. Several more meetings are still being scheduled and will be posted as soon as possible. Please continue to check the website as updates are made.
