Diamond Geriatrics'
goal is to help you find relief from the emotions, stress and practical problems involved in
caregiving by providing information, counseling and support. Care
management is one part of that solution. It picks up where you need help so that
you can concentrate on doing the part you do best: being the family
member.
The second part of that solution is is direct service to family members
or caregivers themselves. These services incl ude the following:
-
Individual and family counseling and mediation
-
Conducting family meetings
-
Crisis management
-
Access to benefits and services
-
Preparation and support in the move to a care facility
-
Education about aging, illness, care giving and stress management
-
Assistance with all aspects of daily life, including home help, finances and appointments
-
Help in steering through "the system"
-
Legal representatives for health, finances or personal care
Family members who live out of town, or are away on holidays
have unique challenges—who can be there for you, and do what you would do?
Diamond Geriatrics will help you figure that out and set up a
system that will allow you to feel more comfortable about being far away. We can
do that for your loved one whether they are in the community, or in seniors
housing or a nursing home. For more information on this, please see our
“Geriatric Care Management.”
