This new article from Forbes.com has a frightening headline, but actually provides some meaningful advice:
​

"... document EVERYTHING. Do your best to keep important conversations restricted to email but, if you do have an in-person discussion, you can always follow-up with that person and recap everything that was said. Again, this provides you with a paper trail."

Choosing the Right Assisted Living Community

5/4/2018

0 Comments

 
Consumer Reports​​ recently published "5 Steps for Choosing the Right Assisted Living Community", featuring the important role of Life Care Professionals like those employed by SCMA:

#5: Will Your Family Member Have an Advocate?
"​If you or your family are not able to visit regularly, consider hiring an aging-life-care expert or asking a friend living nearby to check in on your family member. Spotting issues early may help prevent more costly problems later. And if the assisted living management knows you’re keeping a close eye on your loved one, that can help ensure the quality of care."

Senior Care Management Associates is your family's advocate!  Our professional care management services can help you with all 5-steps:
  • Initial assessment - What kind of help do you need?
  • Independent, personalized facility recommendations - What is the quality of care?
  • Financial counseling & budgeting - What are the real costs of care?
  • Developing your plan of care - Can your loved one age in place?
  • Ongoing advocacy - Will your family member have an advocate?
