What exactly does an aging life care manager do—and when should families consider one? In this episode, host Karen Summey, ACAPcommunity and Ms. Tracy Johnson, RN, CCM, CDAL; Registered Nurse Care Consultant, Aging Life Care Professional, Certified Dementia Care Practitioner, and CEO of Premier Care Management of Georgia, break down the care management process, how it differs from home care, warning signs that care management may be needed, and how these services support caregivers, including those at a distance. You’ll also learn what care management assessments look like, what these services cost, and how care managers help families navigate complex aging challenges with confidence.
