Q: When should I contact Helping Hands?
A: Our CEO Matthew Permuth always says, “If you have to ask the question you usually know the answer.” We recommend that our clients take a proactive approach when it comes being informed when it comes to a decision to move to an Independent or Assisted Living Facility. Most seniors aren’t familiar with the different levels of care associated with ALF’s, Memory Cares, Skilled Nursing Facilities etc and a quick conversation can help layout the entire range of living options available. Our expertise can really come in handy when there are concerns over safety. It is important that you reach out to us if your senior is in the hospital or rehabilitation facility so that we help you navigate the immediate next health care and housing steps that are available.
Q:How much does this service cost?
A: The service is free to the end user because we are paid only when we help you make a decision about your senior’s living location and we are paid by the location you choose.
After an interview we work to narrow down options for the senior based upon their care needs, desired location, personality, and budget. This reduces the workload and stress on the senior and family during a time they are already overwhelmed. I then present those options to the family and personally guide them through the process of determining which community will be the best fit for their loved one.
Q: How can we help you or your loved one?
A: Our care team takes a multi-pronged approach to guiding you through the process of finding the best senior living option for you or your family with an effective personalized process:
