Geriatric Care Managers
A geriatric care manager is a professional who specializes in assisting older people and their families with long-term care arrangements at home or in institutions. GCMs have extensive knowledge about the cost, quality, and availability of services in their community and are available 24/7. They usually transport to medical appointments, do regular home visits, advocate, coordinate service providers as well as communicate with family. They can also provide guardianship services. They are especially helpful when family members live at a distance. They charge a fee for their services. For help locating a Geriatric Care Manager outside Central NJ:

SENIOR LIVING ADVISORS
There is an emerging niche for “senior living advisors.” Some provide concierge services or linkage services while others only do residential placement. Some have no fee, because they get paid by the residential community for the placement. Some are independent, some are franchised, fee-for-service. Staff may have varying credentials — not necessarily nursing or social work; there is no regulating agency or experience requirements.
