About Aging in Arizona

Our certified professional care managers help your family assess needs, discuss wishes, and find solutions to all types of aging challenges in order to help you find the options for yourself or your aging loved one. Care management is a service provided to older adults and involved family members. Goals: - Maintaining independence in activities of daily life. - Navigating medical issues such as a crisis situation or chronic illness. - Monitoring changes in memory and cognitive function, including dementia and Alzheimer’s concerns. - Watching for elder abuse or financial exploitation. - Reviewing home safety, including mobility, appliance usage, and outside structural concerns. We help you sort through the issues and provide recommendations to reduce worry, making sure that the older adult has the best care possible, and advocating for them every step of the way. Your loved one’s needs are at the center of all our work done together. Medical Care Navigation With extensive experience helping families, we organize, coordinate, and communicate within the medical system. Effective organization and communication by an advocate improves care received leading to higher quality of life. For over 25 years our Director, Shana, has been assisting families as navigate healthcare and make important care decisions. Care management includes attending physician appointments, monitoring ongoing care needs, attending to medical crises, reviewing hospital care, and coordinating specialized care, and communicating with involved family. Care decisions are made by the client and/or their medical power of attorney decision maker and we help carry them out. Memory & Dementia Care We walk with you through each step including seeking the best care, reviewing their living situation, addressing driving concerns, educating the family, finding the right care options for home, and working to meet the specific needs of the client.
