During our lifetime we all experience transitions; times when we
journey from one stage to another. These transitions range from
chronic illnesses to unexpected health concerns to the normal processes
of aging. Geriatric Care Managers can help guide families through
these transitions.
We are the South Central Chapter of the National
Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers. Members
conduct their practices within the States of Arkansas, Louisiana,
Oklahoma, and Texas.
Members
of the association are private practitioners whose purpose is the
development, advancement and promotion of humane and dignified social,
psychological, and health care for the elderly and their families.
The association is committed to working towards the highest quality
of care for the elderly and their families through education, advocacy,
and high standards of practice.
From birth we go through many stages in our lives. These stages
include childhood, adulthood, and elder years. It is in our adult
years that we experience many obstacles from raising children to
taking care of our elderly parents. Geriatric Care Managers can
assist during this time by guiding families to referrals, prioritizing
their needs, and providing solutions for those needs.

Care Manager in your area or for more information regarding Geriatric Care Management
as a resource or profession.
