Senior Life LLC, Geriatric Care Management Nurses
Getting older has gotten pretty complicated and so has figuring out what to do next. Many decisions are needed when you are under pressure due to a crisis or hospitalization. That's where we come in.
We are Geriatric Care Management Nurses. We are also Consultants and Advocates. That means we make it our business to understand all aspects of eldercare. It also means that we work only for you and your best interests. We offer you insider guidance; independent of insurance companies, health systems or creative marketing.
We listen to you first. Carefully. When we understand your needs, concerns and questions, we advise you on what's available at what quality and cost. We are your "one stop shop" for understanding every option available to meet your needs. We help at our office, your home, the hospital, assisted living or nursing homes. That's the consultant part. We are also advocates. If you wish, we will work with your professional health team for best results.
Our clients save time, energy and money. They don't "hope" they made the best choice, they know they did. Don't wait for a crisis. Call today and build a response plan for the "what ifs" that are on your mind.
Thank you for considering Senior Life. It would be our pleasure to help you.
