## What FinTend does for the families you serve

When a patient can’t manage their money, someone else has to find the bills and keep them paid. FinTend walks the family through every step, from day 1 to discharge and beyond.

- **Steps in the right order**: The family is already overwhelmed. FinTend serves each priority as it comes.
- **Words for the hard calls**: Call Guides help you get your questions answered – even the ones you hadn’t thought to ask yet.
- **Clean digital collaboration**: Everyone works from the same list, sees who’s doing what, and gets only the access their role needs.
- **Built-in privacy**: We never sell user data, and deleting when you’re done is hassle-free.
- **Control & safety**: FinTend draws the map. All the decisions and actions are made by the family.
- **No cost**: Our emergency tools and resources are always free to families.

## Where it fits in your work

You already know which families will need support with transitioning the financial tasks. FinTend gives you something concrete to hand them.

- **Social workers**: When a family meeting turns to bills, bank access, or power of attorney, you can point them to a free, trustworthy resource.
- **Discharge planners**: When the patient was the one who managed the household’s money, add the handout to the discharge packet. The family leaves with clear next steps.
- **Case managers**: When long-term care or Medicaid comes up, FinTend families already have their accounts, bills, and assets listed in one place.

### How does FinTend keep our data safe?

Your safety and privacy are our top priority. We'll never sell your data, and you can delete it any time. Please see our [Privacy Policy](https://fintend.com/privacy/) for details.

### Can I use FinTend for a loved one who isn't incapacitated?

FinTend is designed to help caregivers navigate the challenge of figuring out a loved one's finances when they can't communicate. If that's not true of your situation, it's not right for you.

If your loved one is currently managing their finances on their own, but wants to prepare to transition those tasks to you in the future, we have other products (coming soon!) that are a better fit.
