We'll discuss the Comprehensive Assessment &Home Safety Evaluation findings, possible solutions, and recommendations.
Christy will set the meeting agenda to help participants stay focused on your loved one’s needs and minimize unpleasant family dynamics. Meeting includes you and the family members you choose to participate, and plenty of time for questions.

The Care Plan addresses all of the care needs identified in the Comprehensive Assessment, giving you a road map for both now (The Right Now Plan) and the future (The Breathing Room Plan).
After choosing the best solutions for your particular situation, we'll develop the Action Plan. Everyone present will be clear on what the next step is, who is responsible for accomplishing it, and when the action item is due.

How's the action plan working? How's the family working together? Any roadblocks? We'll work out any kinks and fine tune whatever needs it during each of your weekly training & coaching calls. We'll also get all your remaining calls scheduled during this session.

Dementia is tough enough. You shouldn't have to mess around with trial and error, too.
Life gets easier with a strategy in place--the right plan for your unique situation.

Whether you already have many pieces in place and just need a little tweak, or this is all new to you and you're feeling overwhelmed with no idea where to start, I'll guide you through the rough terrain.

If I can help you, I'll let you know. If not, I'll refer you to a resource that can.
