Long-term care is one of those topics many families know they should think about, but often put off until a crisis happens.
In the latest Citrus Insights, Richard Harris is joined by Roberta Svile, Founder of Local Care Adviser, for a clear, compassionate and practical conversation about later-life care.
Roberta helps families, financial advisers and private client solicitors navigate the care system, from understanding care options and finding suitable support, to ongoing monitoring and professional Health and Welfare Attorney work where needed.
Key points from the episode include:
- what long-term care actually means
- why conversations should ideally start in your mid-50s or early 60s
- the different options available, from care at home to residential care
- why care costs can vary so widely
- what to look for when choosing a care home
- the red flags families should watch out for
- how care advisers and financial advisers can work together
- why having a Plan A, Plan B and Plan C can make difficult moments easier

Roberta’s message is simple but important: care planning is about dignity, choice and control. The earlier families start the conversation, the more options they are likely to have.
