We are prepared to explain various options such as the ramifications of continuing care at home; circumstances in which a senior might need, or wish, to move; offer education and resources on planning; discuss pertinent home safety measures; and offer tips on how best to coordinate with other family members, especially during a trying time.

The care plan can only be as good as the degree to which it becomes a reality. Once there is consensus on the plan by all the involved parties, making the care plan a reality becomes our primary concern. Our care professionals coordinate the activities of the team, monitor the team’s progress, modify the care plan as necessary, and provide continual feedback to the client and involved loved ones.

We hope that you come to understand that you are not alone with the challenges of aging. Most people face these same concerns as they get older. There are ways to make the adjustment easier through drawing upon your strengths and allowing others to assist you. That is a part of the grace of aging.

We hope to give you a sense of the issues your older loved ones are facing. By helping you understand the profound need for older adults to retain control over their own lives, we strive to point the way so you can work together as a team with empathy and respect. After all, you too will be making this journey one day.
