Our team frequently assists families to help their loved ones move into an Assisted Living Facility in their area. This process can be stressful when trying to determine which facility will meet the needs of their loved ones. One of the most frequently asked questions we receive from families is,"How do we know what level of care they will need?"

Our team has been making holiday plans for our clients who have family out of town. Most of our clients will see family for a short visit, but they won’t have a lot going on in the weeks leading up to Christmas. During this holiday season, we are working to be sensitive to the fact that there may be pressure for people to be involved in and find joy in celebrations.

Jennifer hired us to help with her grandmother. She had hired some private pay caregivers that her friends had used in the past. Her grandmother is in her 90s and needs help around the clock. She had already decided on their pay rates and schedule but did not know where to go from there. Since the caregivers seemed kind and competent and her grandmother liked them she assumed everything would go smoothly. Since Jennifer lives out of town, she hired us to implement our "Assisted Living at Home" program.
