Trauma Insurance for Vulnerable Young Drivers…

As financial planners, we play an important role in helping our clients plan for their future and it can be highly rewarding and exciting. But there’s also a darker side when we’re called on to assist families going through life changing times brought on by death, illness and accident.

Being exposed to these experiences makes us ever so more aware of the fragility of life and how important insurance can be to the beneficiaries. It can truly mean the difference between managing a situation as best as possible and being completely overwhelmed by financial and emotional stress.

We encourage all our clients to take out Trauma Insurance, which covers issues such as cancer, heart attack, stroke and bypass surgery. In fact these make up the majority of claims, industry wide. But then, the majority of people who have Trauma Cover are over the age of 35 and more likely to suffer from these health issues.

But what about younger people, aged 18 to 35? Trauma Cover policies also look after clients who suffer paralysis, major head trauma, coma and loss of limbs – all very common injuries suffered in car accidents. Unfortunately, you only need watch the local news each night to see that the most common victims of car accidents are young drivers.

If you’re a parent, you’ll be very familiar with the anguished feeling of waiting for your child to return home safely in their car… and equally familiar with the sigh of relief as their car arrives. While we can’t take away the anxiety, Trauma Cover is there to assist, should your young driver suffer the unimaginable.
