Why I Love Geriatric Care Managers!!

Why I love Geriatric Care Managers

Recently, a friend of ours told us that she couldn’t keep her cat, “Ms. Go,” anymore. Ms. Go loves to be held and to give love. So, I thought about who should get this wonderful cat and I realized that this sweet kitty would be great for a senior. Right then, I knew who to ask for help — My friend, geriatric care manager, Sylvia Thompson from LivHome.com.

I asked her if she could help me find a great person who would appreciate this cat. Sylvia found a dementia care community that was thrilled to have a community cat and she delivered the cat personally. Ms. Go is fitting in beautifully and is bring joy and comfort to both the staff and residents. Nobody paid her to help this kitty, she just did it because this is the kind of person she is.

This is why I love geriatric care managers. They are wonderful problem solvers and have the biggest hearts. Sylvia took the time and knew who to contact. She went the extra mile to make sure that the solution was a good fit for everyone involved. If you would like to hire a geriatric care manager in your town to help you find the right solutions for your loved one, go to the National Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers at www.caremanagers.org

If you are in the Southern California area, you can call Sylvia at 323-933-5880 or go to http://www.livhome.com/losangeles_seniorcare/c310/About_LivHOME/Regional_Locations/Los_Angeles_Senior_Care_.html..
