• the safety of the home
• fall risk
• nutritional needs
• ability to manage Activities of Daily Living (bathing, dressing, eating)
• activities such as driving, shopping, managing finances, and more
• medical situation, history, and prognosis
• medication compliance
• client’s history and desires, background
• family and other support systems
• financial needs and insurance available
• advance care planning and legal services referral needs
• eligibility for various services

A professional geriatric assessment can benefit your family in many ways. We customize our careplan recommendations to your needs and budget and help you identify resources for caregiving and safe, healthy aging.
