All of our Care Managers are experts in the field of Alzheimer’s Disease and other related memory disorders, with years of specialized education and work experience.
A major component of our service model is education for adult children to reduce their own stress around caring for their parent.
We use a “check-in” protocol for symptom management and monitoring that enables our Care Managers to closely track our client’s mental state and ensure rapid response should symptoms appear.
At Senior Alternatives, we apply the same social work skills we use with our seniors to our children and adults with developmental disabilities.
We do not accept any financial consideration from the facility selected for placement. Instead, we charge an hourly fee.
