Elder Care/Advocacy 

Empower

 

When in doubt, ask for help! I understand how important it is for you to keep your promise to your loved one. Empowerment will make that happen. I know the options; tap into my expertise.

 

Advocate

 

As we age, your loved one is in a vulnerable situation. You are not sure of the options available for treatment or housing; I can be your advocate!

 

Support

It can be overwhelming to be responsible for someone. I am a professional who can provide you with the support you need.

 

 

What is a Geriatric Care Manager?

 

A Geriatric Care Manager is a health and human service specialist who acts as a guide and advocate for families who are caring for older relatives and disabled adults. The geriatric care manager is educated and experienced in several fields related to care management including but not limited to nursing, gerontology, social work or psychology, with a specialized focus on issues related to aging and elder care.

 

I believe everyone, regardless of age, wants to grow old in their home. Through empowerment, advocacy and support, I will work with you and your family to try to make that happen. Your hopes and dreams are my goals. Let's develop a plan together and see what makes sense. If it is not possible to keep your loved one at home, we will figure it out. As my parents used to say, "Treat people as you would want to be treated; in doing so, you will not live with regrets."
