Going the Extra Mile: How Concierge Care Advisors Helped a Client Find Comfort, Care, and a Loving Home for Her Beloved Pet
When seniors need assistance finding a community that meets their unique needs, personalized senior care makes all the difference. Recently, I met a client at a skilled rehabilitation facility who was seeking an assisted living community that could support her evolving needs. As we talked, I realized that, without family nearby to help, she would rely on me for every aspect of her transition. This is where Concierge Care Advisors excels in providing not just placement, but the personalized senior care our clients need to feel confident and secure.
Our Approach to Personalized Senior Care: A Case Study
To support this client, I conducted our usual intake, gathering essential details about her care requirements, preferences, and financial situation. Establishing trust was crucial; we pride ourselves on creating a connection that feels safe and supportive during every transition. She needed a community that could adjust to her potential future care needs, accommodate her finances, and welcome her beloved dog, Missy. As a provider of personalized senior care, we knew finding the perfect fit would require careful thought, negotiation, and a high level of support.
Finding the Perfect Assisted Living Community for Her Needs
Our commitment to personalized senior care means considering both immediate and future needs. After a thorough search, I found a community that met her care requirements and had the flexibility to adapt to any future changes. The Executive Director was willing to work with us on move-in fees and rent adjustments, recognizing the importance of creating a stable, supportive home for her. With her finances in mind, they even offered free storage for her extra furniture—a generous gesture that’s part of what makes personalized senior care so essential.
Guiding Seniors Through the Transition Process
With mild cognitive impairment, my client needed assistance with her finances, including understanding her bank accounts. Together, we worked through her finances in a conference call with the bank, clarifying her account balances and helping her understand the cost of her care. This level of support is integral to personalized senior care, ensuring our clients feel empowered and informed every step of the way.
Coordinating the Move and Providing Continued Support
Moving can be overwhelming, so I arranged a trusted moving company to handle her transition into the new apartment. The mover offered a discounted rate, easing her financial stress, and took great care with her belongings. I was there on move-in day to ensure everything was in place and that she was comfortable.
Not long after, she mentioned having difficulty caring for Missy, her little Shih Tzu. I assured her that we could help find a new home for Missy if needed, as part of our dedication to personalized senior care that addresses all aspects of our clients’ lives.
A Loving New Home for Missy: Part of Our Personalized Approach
One of our advisors stepped up to adopt Missy, ensuring she went to a loving home with other dogs to keep her company. I let my client know that Missy would be visiting regularly, which brought her peace and reassurance. This is the kind of dedication and support we offer through Concierge Care Advisors, providing personalized senior care that considers every detail.
