Elder Care Consulting Services
Starting the Conversation
Typically as seniors age, the people around them notice changes in their ability to function independently and often see the need for support and assistance even before the individual can acknowledge it.
Many seniors are very resistant to allowing extra help in their home, let alone the idea of moving to a senior living community. Sage Senior Care Advisors have helped numerous families begin these difficult conversations and help evaluate all options with the goal of keeping their loved one as independent as possible, while maintaining their safety and support.
In-Home Consultation
Sage Senior Care Advisors is available to come into the home and meet with you and your loved one to evaluate the “big picture” and come up with the safest plan to address all their support and care needs. The initial consultation is free and we have a very reasonable hourly charge for these services. Contact us to learn more.
