JFS prides itself on offering professional, caring, and comprehensive Care Management services.

Our care managers help older adults and their families navigate the aging process. They advocate on your behalf, help solve problems, and communicate with physicians, hospitals, and family. Our goal is to support older adults to live at home independently and securely, providing assistance and peace of mind.

Care management includes:

• Intake and assessment
• Advocacy
• Supportive Counselling
• Information and referrals

Our care managers are knowledgeable about community resources such as adult day care, therapeutic lunches, recreational, social and mental stimulation programs. Care Management can also include assistance with the choice of alternative housing. The care manager can explore options, accompany to view assisted living, and work with government case managers to facilitate placement in congregate care. Care Management services may be on a short-term basis or continue for several years. The process includes ongoing home visits and assessment of physical and psychosocial changes, as well as ongoing communication with family members and other professionals.
