Life Care Planning

Life Care Planning is the first step toward ensuring that individuals facing chronic illness or catastrophic injury have what they need to live life to the fullest. For detailed and carefully evaluated life care planning, Pittsburgh attorneys and attorneys from surrounding areas turn to CARDINAL LifeCare Consulting.

What is a Life Care Plan?

A life care plan is a comprehensive estimate of an individual’s medical and non-medical needs throughout their lifetime that result from a catastrophic injury or chronic illness.

The experts at CARDINAL LifeCare Consulting use medical records, evidence based practice guidelines and recommendations from medical providers to create detailed life care plans. To us, all life care plans are unique and must be customized completely, though each one we create uses a specific METHODOLOGY to ensure accuracy and consistency.

Our certified consultants will carefully evaluate the individual needs and goals of the patient to create a plan that ensures he or she will be properly cared for. Our consultants have provided the credible life care planning services Pittsburgh has relied on for years.
