When we work with seniors and their families, we always ensure that we:

  • Assess the physical, emotional, relational and care environments

  • Evaluate the safety of living conditions

  • Develop a strategic plan for a senior’s health and well-being

  • Bring in specialized resources as appropriate to facilitate strategy

  • Consolidate personal, financial, legal and medical information

  • Advocate and act as a sounding board for senior

  • Provide regular contact with senior, family and advisory professionals

  • Respect all current family, social, and professional relationships

We begin each relationship with multiple meetings in a client’s home or community where we discuss their issues, concerns, and how they would like to live their golden years. The senior feels honored and knows that their wishes are respected. The final deliverable is a collaborative strategic plan tailored to meet the needs of our client.

We remain available on retainer should a client wish, to provide follow-on services or a family member may bring in the resources identified in the “Aging in Place” section of the plan. We also offer ongoing retainer services for clients who need additional home visits or a check-in service, or who may simply need a regular sounding board.

Our goal is to serve clients by providing strategic planning, resource optimization, and ensuring that their physical, emotional, relational and care environments are the best they can be.
