Geriatric Care Management
A Geriatric Care Manager is a health care professional with specialized knowledge and expertise regarding issues of aging.
At eldereval, our Care Managers come into the home of your loved one and evaluate their living situation. We assess medical, social, and safety needs, recommend solutions based on problematic areas, and coordinate services to be put in place. We will develop a personalized care plan that will maximize independence and well being. Our Care Managers serve as a liaison between out of state family members, physicians, care providers, and community resources.
The use of a Geriatric Care Manager will not only provide you with peace of mind, but other benefits as well. Family members may be uncomfortable w
ith elder decision making, or they may be struggling with family and career responsibilities . Navigating our healthcare system is difficult. Our Care Managers have the expertise and resources to find the best possible solutions for any eldercare issue. Our Care Managers can actually help you avoid costly choices that may have been a band-aid solution, but are no longer appropriate. Other ways we help our clients contain costs is to identify the possibility of benefit qualification, avoid duplication of services, and un-necessary hospitalizations. We have extensive experience with Long Term Care Insurance.
Our commitment to our clients is to help them remain as independent as possible, living in the setting of their choice. Our services are available as often as you deem necessary, or as needs change. We can visit routinely on a weekly or monthly basis, or when a new issue needs attention.
Our fees are billed on an hourly basis. Please call our office for a fee schedule at 860-245-0820, or fill out our contact form.
