"My mother's doctors have recommended an extended care facility for her. Do you have any information about facilities in NYC? I do not want a nursing home, since my mother is capable of doing many things for herself. I am looking for an extended-care facility where she can have her own apartment with assistance on an as-needed basis."
It seems to happen so fast. One day your older family member is healthy and active, and the next day you begin to notice the changes. Suddenly, your older family member needs help with everyday activities. Unfortunately, it's not always clear how to handle the medical, physical, social, emotional, and financial issues that come with caring for an older adult. Our Elder Care program can help. This professional consultation and care management service will provide you with the information and guidance you need to make the right decisions in caring for an older family member. Our program is especially beneficial for adult children in other parts of the country who have an aging family member living in the New York City area.
We can provide you with:
- Assessments, care planning and care management
- Affordable options in dealing with physical, social, financial and other issues associated with aging
- Help with preparing applications to receive Medicaid benefits, when appropriate
- Specific recommendations and a plan of care
This service is available in:
- Brooklyn
- Bronx
- Manhattan
