What Members Have to Say ...
“My most urgent piece of advice for those taking care of parents or themselves: Start early.”
“I enrolled some 20 years ago … this [Friends Life Care Plan] allows me to still live in my own house and have the service of a nurse’s aide 12 hours a day. The aide takes care of my wife, does shopping, and drives me to the doctor’s office. We feel at ease in our own home and recommend this to seniors who do not like the confinement of a retirement facility.”
Robert C. Melzi, member
Excerpt, letter to the editor, “U.S. News & World Report,” December 17, 2007 |
“They make me feel good! Friends Life Care is the greatest thing there is!”
“When you need help, you make just one phone call to the Care Coordinator and they help you. And they provide high-quality people to take care of you. The people are the greatest. I can’t say enough about Friends Life Care and the people who have taken care of my husband and me.”
Betty Hallowell, member |
“We really didn’t want to burden our children with caring for us. This was an important part of our thinking when we joined Friends Life Care.”
Miriam Finkel, member
“I was really pleased with Miriam’s care last year and so knew what to expect when it was my turn. The Care Coordinator took care of all the details. I’m not back to work yet, but hope to return in the next couple of weeks. We cherish our independence and are looking forward to things getting back to normal.”

“Friends Life Care has that added quality that long-term-care insurance doesn’t have: the Care Coordinator to supervise my care.”
“As executive director of a county office on aging for a number of years, I know the health-care field … I became a Friends member to achieve my goal of living in my own home indefinitely. My home has memories, pictures, keepsakes … it means so much more to me than just a house.”
Peggy O’Neill, member |
“One phone call to Friends Life Care, and they respond faster than my own family can!”
“We wanted to stay independent and never be a burden to our family, so we decided to join. A few years later my wife had several strokes. We could never have handled it without Friends Life Care. We had an excellent nurse, Annette. She provided wonderful care to my wife.”
Norman Breyer, member |
“We were cautious about nursing facilities and really wanted to be living together in a comfortable situation. Staying at home was the ideal setting for us.”
“We walk everywhere. We can enjoy the opera, the theater, libraries and museums because we chose to stay in our Center City Philadelphia home when we retired. Friends Life Care has provided my husband and me with long-term care and financial protection to live a self-sufficient life.”
Harriette Behringer, member |
