• Caring for local families since 2004
  • A care manager on call, day or night
  • We never accept referral fees

For many families, caring for a family member grows slowly until it no longer fits around work, family or sleep. It is tiring, and it is common to feel guilty about being tired. It is a lot for one person.

We have spent more than twenty years helping families in exactly this position.

How families end up here

Perhaps one of these sounds familiar.

Work has grown, and the care that used to fit around it does not anymore.

Your own family needs you, and so does your loved one.

You live far away, but you are still the one everyone calls.

A move is coming, and most of the work happens during the week.

How we can help

A care manager takes over the coordination. We start with a short conversation about what is landing on you. Then we ask the doctors, community, pharmacy and agency to call us first. From then on, those calls come to us instead of you.

You stay in charge, and you can take anything back whenever you want. We keep you updated on everything we handle.

What we usually take on:

  • Booking, confirming and attending medical appointments
  • The calls from the community, the agency and the pharmacy
  • Chasing test results, referrals and prescriptions
  • Insurance forms, claims, appeals and the time on hold
  • Finding, vetting and supervising in-home caregivers
  • A written update on whatever rhythm you choose
  • Watching for changes in condition before they become a crisis

When you visit, you can simply spend time together.

What you can do now

  • Change who the facility calls first.Ask the community or agency to call a different number first. It quiets your phone down quickly.
  • Separate what only you can do from what anyone could.Sitting with your loved one needs you. Confirming a ride to an appointment does not. The things only you can do are usually fewer than it feels.
  • Decide how often you want to hear, and from whom.A regular written update from one person can take a lot off your mind.
