LTC 101: CARE MANAGEMENT (under construction)


The most important feature provided in a Long-Term Care Policy is Care Management.  A professional usually a Registered Nurse or sometimes a Social Worker.  One who assists the family in the planning and implementation of the patients care.  

Even if one does not have a policy it is so important the family seeks counseling from a professional.   

The Care Manager becomes the Coach to help the family manage the maze of services and facilities.  The help develop and implement a plan.  Counseling the family the best way to keep the patient as safe and independent as possible.
