For Professionals
A trusted daily money management partner for professionals serving older adults and their families.
The needs of older adults often extend beyond the services of any one professional. A client may have a financial advisor, attorney, CPA, care manager, and family members all playing important roles, while still needing help with the everyday financial and administrative responsibilities that happen between meetings.
Day Sensible Solutions works alongside trusted professionals throughout Greater Boston to provide practical, ongoing support that helps clients stay organized, follow through on important responsibilities, and maintain as much independence as possible.
Supporting Your Clients Beyond the Day-to-Day
You may recognize when a client is beginning to have difficulty managing everyday financial responsibilities before anyone else does.
Perhaps documents are repeatedly missing. Bills or financial paperwork are becoming disorganized. A spouse who always managed the household finances has died. An adult child is becoming increasingly involved. A move or health change has created new responsibilities. Or a client simply seems overwhelmed by tasks they once managed comfortably.
These situations do not always require a change in the professional advice the client is receiving. Sometimes they require someone who can help with the practical details between professional meetings.
Day Sensible Solutions helps fill that role.
A Collaborative Approach
Daily money management works best as part of a client's existing support system.
Day Sensible Solutions does not replace the professionals a client already knows and trusts. Instead, Rose works alongside them, helping with appropriate financial organization, administrative follow-through, recordkeeping, and communication.
Depending on the client's needs, support may include bill payment, account reconciliation, financial record organization, insurance and medical bill support, tax document organization, fraud awareness, financial summaries, and coordination with trusted advisors.
The result is an additional layer of day-to-day support for the client and a reliable point of contact for the people helping them.

Estate & Elder Law Attorneys
Older adults and families may leave an attorney's office knowing what needs to happen next but struggle with the organization and administrative follow-through required to move things forward.
Day Sensible Solutions can help clients organize financial information, gather requested records, keep important documents accessible, and coordinate appropriate details with family members and other professionals.
Rose does not provide legal advice. She provides practical financial and administrative support that can help clients follow through more effectively.

Financial Advisors
As clients age or experience major life transitions, managing everyday financial responsibilities can become more difficult even when a strong financial plan is already in place.
Day Sensible Solutions can help with the practical details between advisor meetings, including financial organization, bill management, account reconciliation, document gathering, and ongoing follow-through.
Rose does not provide investment advice or replace the financial advisor. Her role is to support the everyday financial organization that can help clients stay engaged with the larger plan.

CPAs
For some clients, the most difficult part of tax season is not the return itself. It is locating, gathering, and organizing the information their CPA needs.
Day Sensible Solutions can help clients maintain financial records throughout the year, organize tax-related documents, reconcile accounts, and gather requested information for their tax professional.
Day Sensible Solutions does not prepare tax returns or provide tax advice. The goal is to help clients arrive better organized and prepared so their CPA can focus on the work only they can provide.

Care Managers
Changes in care often bring changes in financial and administrative responsibilities.
Medical bills, insurance paperwork, household expenses, financial records, and family communication can all require attention while a care manager is focused on the client's care needs and overall well-being.
Day Sensible Solutions can provide support for those financial and administrative details while working collaboratively with the care manager and family. This allows each professional to remain focused on their appropriate role while helping the client receive more coordinated support.
When a Client May Benefit From Daily Money Management
The need for additional support is not always obvious, and a client does not need to be in crisis before a referral makes sense.
You may consider introducing daily money management when a client:
-
Is becoming overwhelmed by bills, statements, or financial paperwork
-
Regularly has difficulty locating requested documents
-
Has recently lost a spouse who managed household finances
-
Is preparing for assisted living or another major transition
-
Has an adult child increasingly managing financial responsibilities
-
Needs help staying organized between professional meetings
-
Is having difficulty managing medical bills or insurance paperwork
-
Could benefit from regular account review and greater fraud awareness
-
Wants to remain independent but would benefit from help with certain financial tasks
-
Wants to put an organized financial system in place before needs increase
Introducing support earlier can give the client time to develop a trusted relationship and establish clear routines before a more significant need arises.
A Resource for Clients and Their Families
Referring a client for daily money management requires trust.
Rose Day brings more than 30 years of experience across healthcare, technology consulting, finance, aging services, and social work. She holds an undergraduate degree from the University of Pennsylvania and an MSW with a concentration in Gerontology from Boston University.
Her approach is patient, practical, and collaborative. Rather than approaching a client's financial life as a collection of individual tasks, she works to understand how the pieces fit together and where additional organization or support would be most useful.
That can be especially valuable when multiple family members and professionals are involved.
Helping Clients Stay Independent
For many older adults, accepting financial help can feel like giving something up.
Day Sensible Solutions approaches the relationship differently.
The goal is to provide the level of assistance the client actually needs while keeping them involved in their financial life wherever appropriate. Some clients may need help with only a few responsibilities. Others may benefit from more consistent ongoing support.
As circumstances change, that support can change with them.
For professional partners, this can provide another option for clients who are still capable of participating in financial decisions but could benefit from dependable assistance with implementation, organization, and everyday administration.
Building a Stronger Support Team
Financial advisors, attorneys, CPAs, care managers, family members, and daily money managers each serve different purposes.
When those roles are clear and communication is organized, clients can benefit from a stronger overall support system.
Day Sensible Solutions provides the day-to-day financial organization and follow-through that can help connect those relationships without competing with the professionals already serving the client.
