About
For many Australian families, aged care begins with an unexpected health scare -but quickly becomes a financial, legal, and emotional minefield.
Almost overnight, families can find themselves forced into complex decisions about the family home, accommodation payments, pensions, cash flow, powers of attorney, and future care arrangements - all during periods of stress, grief, and uncertainty.
What most Australians don't realise is that aged care can fundamentally reshape an estate long before death ever occurs.
Homes are sold. Assets are splintered. Pension entitlements can change. Carefully prepared estate plans can unravel under the pressure of aged care costs, urgency, and lack of knowledge. In many cases, family expectations and inheritance outcomes are altered forever.
Splintered Assets exposes the hidden collision between aged care, estate planning, Centrelink, and accumulated family wealth - a collision leaving hundreds of thousands of Australian families financially and emotionally shocked.
Within these pages, you will discover why preparation is no longer optional. The earlier families understand the risks, the greater their ability to protect assets, reduce stress, preserve family relationships, and make informed decisions before crisis strikes.
Because when aged care arrives without a plan, the consequences can be far greater than most people ever imagined.
