Coordination

When dealing with illness or issues related to aging, our first natural step is to look to our primary care physicians for answers to questions and decisions. Physicians fundamentally validate the realities we are faced with and provide care and resources that heal and sustain us. Aging Life Care Services (Elder Care Management) is the next step.

An Aging Life Care Specialist is a non-medical provider connecting and coordinating care, offering guidance, recommendations, solutions and support to help manage the complexities and challenges of medical visits, home care, family caregiving, long-term care, hospitalization, specialists, insurance, finances, legal concerns, social/spiritual/community needs that go beyond a 15 minute physician visit or bedside consultation.
