How Do We Work With Seniors And Their Families?

 

For most people the job of locating and choosing an affordable and responsible senior care facility is a daunting one. Where do you start? What do you look for? How do you make a selection that suits you, your elderly loved one, and your pocket book?

 

"ABOUT ELDER CARE" CAN HELP!

Our objective is to "hold the caregiver's hand" throughout the entire facility selection process. We do this in our core geographic areas of Sacramento, Placer, El Dorado, Nevada, San Joaquin, Solano and Yolo counties by referring clients to the best suited of over 400 residences that are licensed and inspected by the State and have been carefully evaluated by our staff.

Facility Evaluation

About Elder Care has developed a qualification process used to evaluate facilities in the Sacramento area for quality care. Each residence must be state licensed and is carefully inspected by one of our consultants. A care residence must meet all of our quality standards before we refer clients to it. In our Northern California service area discharge planners, social workers, physicians, hospitals, nursing homes and home care professionals are aware of our expertise and frequently refer families to us for assistance.

Consultation With Seniors And Caregivers

Initially, an About Elder Care consultant interviews family members and personally evaluates each senior client living in our core geographic area. We match an elder's care and social needs, location preference and family budget with appropriate facilities in our computer data base. All personal information provided to us by clients via e-mail, telephone or correspondence is held in strictest confidence. It is provided only to assisted care facilities for evaluation purposes and is not shared with other third parties. We require that all assisted living facilities keep client information confidential. We provide each family with a list of residences to visit based on our facility matching criteria and other factors.

Families are given a list of questions to ask facility staff and a checklist of key items to observe during a tour. Our care consultants can help reduce the time and stress in searching for an assisted care facility. Click Meet Our Consultants to learn about each care consultant's experience and expertise.

Our facility consulting and referral services are provided to seniors and their families with a no cost and no obligation guarantee.
