Care Management refers to consultation and planning
services provided to elders, their families, and their caregivers
in response to care needs. Professionals who render these
services are called Geriatric Care Managers. |
| Professional
Geriatric Care Managers have training and experience
in helping individuals and families meet the challenges
of aging with dignity. The geriatric care manager helps
to smooth the process of caring for the elderly family
member while maintaining trust, support, and open communication
