Our mission is to help clients maintain their quality of life, independence and personal dignity by carefully assessing need…providing the most desirable yet cost-effective solutions…and closely monitoring progress. It’s all part of Respecting Our Elders.

You want life to be as rewarding and independent as possible. Elder Care Consulting will help make sure that it is. As one senior friend put it…I am 76 and I still work full-time. I’m trying to figure out Medicaid…managed care…and the rest of my life!

Whether you’re managing your own life or that of a loved one, you’ve learned that the golden years are actually fraught with complex financial issues, worries about day-to-day living and most important, serious concerns about health and well-being.

This is precisely why more and more seniors and their families are consulting Geriatric Care Managers. And why the services of Elder Care Consulting have proved so valuable to our clients.

From the first assessment to long-term management, we become your partner in care.

The decisions you face are many, and every one is important. Your Personal Care Manager will help you find and evaluate all the options available, so you can make the choices that are best for you.
