Caring for our loved ones as they age can be both joyful and challenging. Although there is a wide range of elderly services available, you may have difficulties determining which is right for your elders. This is where a geriatric case manager proves invaluable.

A geriatric case manager is a professional who specializes in helping seniors and their families with long-term care arrangements. With their extensive knowledge about the availability, quality and cost of the elderly services, geriatric care managers can help families who are :


 * new to elder care or undetermined with elder care decision-making
 * facing with a sudden decision or major change, such as the seniors'
    health problems

 * having difficulty with any aspect of elder care
 
Professional Service, Wholehearted Support

Our newly started service named "Smart Choice for In-home Care Planning Service" is aimed at serving those needy seniors and their families. A geriatric case manager will be assigned to every service user for taking care of his/her unique needs. Adopting the case management approach, together with the 24-hour PE Link Service, our geriatric case managers help seniors and their families with long-term care arrangements by conducting needs assessment, establishing care plan, suggesting service options, arranging the most suitable services and negotiating for the reasonable prices, so as to ensure the seniors receive the best possible in-home care.
