Crossroads Elder Advocacy Solutions And Services

Crossroads provides Geriatric Care Consulting and helps families make informed decisions, conduct planning, as well as coordinate and monitor care, make referrals, and provide advocacy on your behalf. Crossroads is ideal for a spouse, adult children, and others who manage an elder s needs when they become ill, sustain an injury resulting in compromised health, receive a distressing medical diagnosis which threatens well-being, or lose a spouse or partner who was their caregiver.
Regardless of the circumstances, families may find that they are increasingly stressed or perhaps even in a crisis, and are faced with making choices about senior care and appropriate places to live and when helping someone with diseases such as Alzheimer s, stroke, and dementia. My experience working with families has shown that family members or friends attempt to identify appropriate and affordable services, but are at a loss as to which services are needed or have the potential to be most beneficial. And it is Crossroad s objective to change that and make seeking out these services in order to get their family and friends the care that they need through the aid Geriatric Care Consultants will provide.
We stress that a Geriatric Care Consultant is especially important when a family member lives a long distance from the elderly person, and needs someone local to look after their parent(s). Timely assistance and putting the right services in place can support families, and help keep an older adult living at home for as long as possible. In the event that an older adult can no longer live at home, a Crossroads Geriatric Care Manager will access elder care services in an alternative senior residential community appropriate to their needs.

An elder care consultation is available when you are faced with making important decisions like supporting a senior s independence, selecting appropriate community-based programs, or finding an alternative senior residence.
