Hiring a Geriatric Care Manager to Assist Your Family

Geriatric care managers are educated in multiple fields such as nursing, gerontology, social work, and psychology. At Alvita Care, our care managers are trained to assist in providing services for your family and your loved ones.

Not only can we help you set up home care services for your elderly parent, but we can also advocate on their behalf. We believe advocacy is extremely important at Alvita Care because, without an advocate, it can be difficult to maneuver through the home health care setting in New York City.

At Alvita Care, we want to ensure that all of our caregivers selected to work with your family are the right fit so we can ensure that a relationship will grow. Our care managers work extremely hard to select caregivers that your loved ones will enjoy and get along with. Additionally, we require reference checks and background checks on all caregivers that we hire before they are brought on board. If you ever have questions or concerns about a caregiver, please feel free to give us a call at 212-273-0490, and our team will be happy to assist you. Without the use of a geriatric care manager, it can be hard to establish a lasting relationship. At Alvita Care, we can help!

We feel that it is significant for a care manager to step in when an elderly individual may be living on their own, but a family member notices changes in their loved one’s condition or routine.

Knowing what resources are available in your neighborhood is important, and geriatric care managers can assist with where to access these resources. We can answer many questions such as how to set up home care services, the price of these services, how Medicare or Medicaid plays a role, and what insurance pays for. Our geriatric care managers are ready and waiting to help you today.

Geriatric care managers can allow more time to be spent focusing on your loved one while dealing with problems you may not be able to handle on your own. We believe our relationship between yourself and our team is imperative, and we make it our goal to stay in contact with you every step of the way. By utilizing our services in this aspect, you spend less time focused on the issues and more time with your loved ones enjoying their company.

Additionally, if you live a long distance from New York City, a geriatric care manager can be your local resource to ensure that care is being scheduled, any issues or crises are being communicated, and that someone is there to closely monitor any situations that come up. At Alvita Care, we pride ourselves on being available 24/7 in the event that you need assistance. You can always call us at 212-273-0490 or toll-free at 1-800-414-7611.

We can explain NYC- home health care for your loved one.

Our geriatric care managers can help set up an in-person assessment and make a care plan tailored to your specific needs. This will help both you and your loved ones to know what to expect when you begin to receive services. After a care plan is set up, we will begin to arrange for services to be met. Our geriatric care managers are ready to assist with any needs you may have, and we can even assist you on the weekends or overnight.
