Care is There Geriatric Care Management is excited to offer our referral partners a new way to introduce seniors and their families to Care is There. We have created custom referral forms, conveniently bound in a small pad.
The forms are intended to improve the process when recommending Care is There to a potential client. Other companies already working with a senior may identify a need that we could possibly meet. They fill out the form, send a fax or scanned copy to us, and give the original form to the senior and their family. With the form in hand, the potential client has all the information they need to contact Care is There and find out more.
This form can be used in three ways.
- If potential clients would like us to contact them, the referral partner checks a box and provides contact information.
- If potential clients would like to contact us themselves, the referral partner leaves the box unchecked.
- If potential clients do not want their information passed on to Care is There, that is fine, too. They can keep the referral sheet for reference. It has our contact information on it, and they can reach out to us when they are ready.
Kim Volker, Manager of the Charlottesville location, adds: “The form lists five categories of services that help many of our clients. If the form comes to us with one or more services checked, we will be better prepared for a conversation with a potential client and their family.”
Additionally, a senior’s unique needs can be written in the form. Care is There offers a such broad range of support and services to help seniors live independently, it’s difficult to list them all. However, by listing a few general categories and allowing space for write-in details, referral partners and families will be able to request assistance specifically for their needs.
We created a downloadable version of the form on our website for both the Virginia location and the Kansas location. You can download the form at careisthere.com/refer (we suggest you bookmark it so you can access it whenever you need it).
