New Mexico Elder Care Management Services

 
Talking Mother and DaughterScenario:

You’re busy with your career, your kids, and your social engagements
and other responsibilities. Your life gets hectic at times, but you’ve fallen into a comfortable, happy rhythm. It all changes, however, when you go home for Thanksgiving.

At the end of dinner, your mom begins to leave the table when she falls and breaks her hip. You’re suddenly thrust into a world that’s entirely foreign to you: the world of complex health care, rehabilitation, Medicare, elder care management and the need for care in the home. These are all things you need to learn about and understand, and you’ll need to do it quickly. You only flew in for the brief holiday weekend, and you’ve really got to get back to work, but your mom needs you. Your dad needs you. You are not comfortable leaving them alone, but you just don’t know where to turn for help. What can you do?

Decades, LLC is an interdisciplinary group practice that understands your family’s needs and regularly receives calls about situations just like the one you may be in now. You’re unable to leave your parent alone, but you have responsibilities of your own to tend. You may not be familiar with the area, and you don’t know who to call or even trust. It can be impossible to determine how much care your mom is going to need or even if she has a power of attorney prepared.

Enter the World of Elder Care with Confidence

There’s an intense learning curve that is so fast and steep that you may be left feeling overwhelmed and under-qualified to handle everything that’s coming at you, but Decades, LLC can help. We will conduct an assessment and provide you with an integrated senior home care and management plan to guide your family as you begin to move forward.

Our Care Management services include:

You may not be able to implement all the changes included in the elder care management plan.
