If you're an adult child of an aging parent, you're concerned. Is
she eating properly? Is he taking his medications? Can she maintain a
household? Can he manage on his own?
A Geriatric Assessment can assist in identifying a loved one's
needs and ways of obtaining the appropriate services in the most
cost-effective, least restrictive manner.
At Aging Concerns, Inc. we help preserve the optimum level of
independence while insuring the proper level of care and assistance is
provided for your loved one.

You're Not Alone
As life advances, those in their older years encounter subtle and not so
subtle challenges. Perhaps it's learning to deal with retirement, figuring
out how to live on a fixed income, balancing a checkbook, facing a
life-threatening health crisis or even coping with the death of a
spouse.How We Can Help
Perhaps the solution is as simple as arranging for a homemaker to
do a few weekly chores. Or a visit to the doctor to identify if apparent
mental confusion is an interaction between medications. Maybe you need
someone to help her pay her bills. Or maybe you need help figuring out how
to get Medicaid to pay for his prescriptions.Resident Advocate Program
If a loved one is residing in a care facility our resident
Advocacy Program can provide monitoring to ensure the elders needs are
being met. Please call for a FREE brochure, (phone number).
