Care Management

Our professional health and human service specialists help families who are caring for older relatives. CHEER has been in the business of serving the elderly for over 40 years. Our Care Managers are trained and experienced in gerontology, nursing, social work, and psychology with a special focus on issues related to aging and elder care.

A Care Manager is an experienced guide and resource for families of older adults and others with chronic needs, including helping those suffering from dementia. Though aging baby boomers may be a bit young for the services that a professional care manager may provide, there is a growing need for help as seniors increasingly live longer than ever before. Our care managers will help bridge the gap between independent living and more full-time care such as home health care or assisted living.

Our care managers can coordinate services such as Meals on Wheels, housekeeping, errand services, medical transportation, emergency response systems, telephone reassurance, grocery delivery, and assistance with any daily activities that may be required.

Arranging care for an elderly parent or relative from a distance can be overwhelming. While there may be numerous resources, referral lines with free advice, it can often help to chat face-to-face with an educated listener who can provide a roadmap for you or your loved one.
