I am willing to pay a private geriatric care manager to plan care for my mother. How do I find the nearest geriatric care manager in my county?
A geriatric care manager helps coordinate and manage the care of a frail older adult. He or she will conduct an assessment to identify problems, and then determine eligibility for needed services, coordinate medical needs — physician contacts, home health, other necessary screening and monitoring of in-home help — review financial or legal issues to provide appropriate referrals, community resources, crisis intervention, assistance with relocation, etc. Contact your local AAA for information.
