Know the Signs
Not sure if you need a Care Manager? Here are some signs that it might be time to seek expert guidance.
-
Difficulty managing medical appointments and medications: Keeping track of numerous doctor visits, prescriptions, and changing medications can become overwhelming, leading to missed appointments or errors in medication management.
-
Increased falls, safety concerns, or home accessibility issues: If your loved one is at risk of falling or struggling with mobility, home modifications or consistent monitoring may be needed to ensure safety and prevent accidents.
-
Struggles with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, or meal preparation: When tasks that were once routine become difficult, a care manager can assess the situation and arrange support to ensure daily living activities are managed with dignity.
-
Family caregivers feeling overwhelmed or experiencing burnout: Juggling caregiving with personal and professional responsibilities can lead to exhaustion and stress, affecting the well-being of the caregiver and the quality of care provided.

Uncertainty about healthcare options or long-term care planning: Navigating complex healthcare systems, insurance, and finding the right long-term care options can be confusing and time-consuming without expert guidance.
-
A loved one showing signs of memory loss or cognitive decline: Memory loss, confusion, or other signs of cognitive decline require a careful approach to care and decision-making, ensuring proper support and safety measures are in place.
-
A need for an advocate to ensure quality care and well-being: Families may need someone to speak on behalf of their loved one, ensuring they receive the best care, advocating for their needs, and ensuring they are treated with dignity and respect.
-
Difficulty managing emotional stress or making difficult decisions about care: Families often struggle with emotional challenges when making tough decisions, such as transitioning to assisted living or long-term care. A care manager can provide the support needed to navigate these emotionally charged situations.

Family members out of town or busy professionals struggling to help from afar: If you're a family member living far away or a busy professional with limited time, it can be difficult to coordinate care and ensure your loved one is getting the attention they need.
