Caring from a distance
Often, family members find themselves having to deal with a parent's deteriorating health from a distance. So, how do you do that, especially when you have no idea of what your loved one might need? Independence is the key. A geriatric care manager specializes in assessing an elder persons needs and making recommendations for their health, finances and legal needs. As a licensed in-home care agency we are more than happy to evaluate your loved one for in-home care, but sometimes the bigger picture needs to be addressed to. In these cases we will quite often advise a geriatric care manager be brought in. In the Hood River area we recommend "Age with G.R.A.C.E".
