What does the mediator do for us?

The mediator will ensure that each person and viewpoint is heard. Mediators do not provide advice, make decisions, or take sides. Mediators provide a safe place for family members to discuss difficult matters, hear what is important to each family member, find common ground, and help the family craft solutions that work for everyone.

 

How can elder mediation help?

• Mediation benefits all parties involved.

• Older adults have a say in decisions.

• De-escalates conflict.

• Proactively resolve disputes.

• Gives families creative options

• Succeeds where counseling at times fails.
