Biography
They call it the Golden Years, a time in our lives filled with relaxation, leisure and security. But the transition to this new chapter can be difficult and full of complex decisions for families and older adults. But with proper planning and a good guide...
Welcome to Maintain Me, a professional and personal approach to navigating the aging process and 'the system'. We provide services, counsel and confidence to older adults in the Denver Metro area seeking expert resources and peace of mind. Our goal at Maintain Me is to eliminate the stress of research and the fear of making the wrong decision. Most importantly, we prioritize a personal touch to ensure that families and seniors are being cared for as if they were our own family.
Maintain Me Offers Three Types of Services:
We all have different goals for our lives in those Golden Years. Whether it is staying at home to age in place or transitioning to community living, we are always here to help!
1. Consulting
Consulting is for aging adults who would like to remain independent at home and need help identifying the resources around doing this successfully. Maintain Me would provide a medical, financial and social assessment. We offer a wide range of services, starting at a minimum of a personalized care plan through hands on assistance with any support setup and follow through.
2. Community Case Management
Case Management includes coordinating initial care and 4-12 weeks of oversight from a Case Manager (RN, MSW) after a change in condition. This program is designed for our aging population to return home with extra support for a short period of time as they recover. The goal is to ensure a successful return to home and prevent re-hospitalization.
3. Transitional/Placement Services
Transition services are for aging adults 55+ looking to transition to independent living, assisted living or memory care. Maintain Me assists with identifying and narrowing down communities based on a medical, financial and social assessment. We arrange personalized tours accompanied by a Maintain Me specialist. Our role is to ensure a smooth transition with all aspects of the process.
