Attorney Maria Baler refers clients to geriatric care managers
Elder law attorney, Maria Baler, described the five way a geriatric care manager can help, and has helped, her clients. According to Maria, geriatric care managers can help by:
- Finding resources, and providers to help with daily tasks, like housekeeping, cooking, bathing, dressing, grocery shopping, and transportation.
- Providing advice on the types of housing options available, should you or your elderly loved one be ready to move from your home.
- Assisting in organizing a move from a hospital or rehabilitation center to a nursing home, short- or long-term care facility.
- Checking in on family, and reporting back to you, if you’re a child who lives far from your parents.
- Giving emotional support, as well as guiding you through the challenges that come with being a caregiver.
