The New 'Female Problem'
Geriatric care managers can assess, facilitate and
coordinate placement while providing family members the
education they need to make informed decisions. This
education not only gives individuals a better
understanding of the process, but it enables them to
overcome the guilt and stress they may be carrying.
Professional geriatric care managers consult with the
family members and take into consideration their
psycho-social and clinical needs, financial concerns and
geographical desires.
Focus on Funding
Gaining an understanding of the finances associated with
eldercare can cause a caregiver’s stress to reach an
all- time high level. Working with a geriatric care
manager can put the funding solution you were looking
for right at your fingertips. Aging specialists are
experts on the VA Aid and Attendance bill as well as
astute in Medicare and Medicaid issues. Certified
geriatric care managers can dispel any funding myth you
may have heard and give you an indication of your
eligibility for assistance.
