When reaching retirement age, one is often faced with many important decisions and choices, requiring decisions about Social Security, Medicare, Home Care, and many other questions. Their family members are also in a quandary, often never having dealt with these issues before. To help seniors and their families navigate the road ahead of them, Zahav is there as a resource and referral center for Lakewood seniors and their families.

Zahav aims to help seniors and their families, answer their questions, and guide them to ensure they are equipped with all the necessary information they need to access life-enhancing services and programs. Questions that the Zahav team can assist you with include ones about finding local help for seniors, finding guidance for legal and medical planning, and information about government resources to pay towards healthcare costs. In addition, they are there for you with regard to financial planning questions, such as trusts and wills, or Medicaid.

Zahav is headed by Mrs. Hadassah Waldman, MS, SBL, SDL, who most recently was the director of senior services for the Boro Park Jewish Community Council. She brings to the position a wealth of experience, which she is applying to the senior community’s needs in Lakewood.
