Michael Colaw reminded everyone of Elder Care's two Care Management programs: Private Duty Care Management and Elder Care’s ADvantage Case Management.
Private Duty Care Management
Elder Care’s Private Duty Care Management team connects aging adults with the care, services, and resources they need to remain safely and comfortably at home. Our professional Care Managers take the time to understand your unique needs, preferences, and priorities, then create a personalized plan designed just for you.
Based on a comprehensive assessment of your needs and resources, the Care Manager works as your advocate to help you obtain the services you need to assist in your home. Some services may come from outside of the Care Management program and assistance from family and friends is incorporated into your person-centered plan of care.
