AGING LIFE MANAGEMENT

As your loved one ages, you may feel overwhelmed by how many questions you have. Aging Life Care Management® includes healthcare advocacy, crisis management, health and wellness visits, specialized individual referrals (elder law and advanced directives, grief counseling, home therapy, etc.), and a personalized care plan. It’s never too early or late to begin planning. Learn more

FALL PREVENTION & EDUCATION

Each year, approximately one-third of adults 65+ will fall in their home. Half of older adults 80+ fall annually, resulting in injury, long-term disability, and premature loss of independence. This is a preventable epidemic. Contact Passionate Healthcare for tips, strategies, and care planning to prevent falls. Learn more

AGING IN PLACE VS TRANSITIONING

So, now you’re a family caregiver. What does this mean? It’s okay to have more questions than answers. You may feel like you have no time to yourself anymore in this new role, and you need solutions now. We offer education and training for both caregivers and professional caregiving companies.

“My wife of 52 years had a stroke in February of 2021. It was serious and left her right side paralyzed. She handled all the aspects of running our household. I was devastated, overwhelmed and deeply grieved by this event.
I thank God that Melissa came into my life in March and has been my guiding light through many difficult circumstances.”
