A few of the many areas Your Eldercare Consultants can help families:
We Manage Many Transitions Related to Health
As you or your loved one age, changes naturally occur. Your Eldercare Consultants evaluates an older person’s ability to manage activities of daily living and creates personalized care plans with recommendations.
We provide valuable advice for families on home caregiver selection and oversight. We can accompany older adults to appointments with physicians and specialists. We also coordinate rehabilitation admission or discharge--easing transitions to and from hospital and home.
We are experts at navigating complex health systems and long-term care insurance benefits. We are there to advocate on your behalf with doctors, health providers, and insurance and financial organizations.
Don’t worry about not knowing. We perform the important task of monitoring and reporting on a loved one’s well-being to families. And whenever you need them, we reach into our contacts and provide those referrals to legal, medical and other specialists, such as attorneys or estate planners.
Neurological disorders are our specialty. Your Eldercare Consultants are equipped to help families plan and manage emerging neurocognitive disorders, such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s or other related dementias.
