🌟 When is the Right Time to Start Looking for Assisted Living and Memory Care? 🌟 Deciding when to explore assisted living or memory care options for a loved one can be challenging. Here are a few signs that it might be time to consider these supportive environments: -Increasing Care Needs: If your loved one requires more help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and medication management, it might be time to seek additional support. -Safety Concerns: Frequent falls, wandering, or forgetting to turn off appliances can pose serious risks. A safe, monitored environment can provide peace of mind. -Declining Health: Chronic health conditions or cognitive decline may require specialized care that’s difficult to provide at home. Caregiver Stress: If you’re feeling overwhelmed, it’s okay to seek help. Professional care can relieve the burden and improve the quality of life for both you and your loved one. -Social Isolation: Assisted living and memory care communities offer social activities and companionship, combating loneliness and improving overall well-being.

Bunda Pintar- how online case teams work! In our next customer survey, you will see the results of how our teams work- receiving outstanding customer feedback around support and empathy! This is achieved through effective proactive weekly support on to-dos, and when health issues are encountered, patients engaging with our nurse/ coach team and then triage to the patients' assigned doctors and specialists, as necessary. The following is a video on engaging with our experienced midwife coaches- and as one person recently said- they were surprised at how effective and great they are! The system allows us to provide a well-priced, quality, and convenient health support for pregnant mothers (and companies to support women in the workplace)- and with less than 1% miscarriage, and none in the last four months, the results say it all!
