| "The most valuable service
provided by PrimeCare was the knowledge I had
somewhere to turn for informed help. It gave me a great sense
of relief”.
“I was aware that there were elder services available,
but with the help of PrimeCare I was assured that I would be working with
reputable ones. They provided helpful suggestions
and options that I had not considered.”
"Did my father qualify for in-home care and/or skilled care from
the Visiting Nurses Association (VNA)? Would Medicare and/or Medicaid
pay for some or all of the long-term skilled care he needed? The managers
at his assisted living community and at the rehabilitation hospital said,
“No, he would have to pay out-of-pocket.” I contacted the
PrimeCare care manager, and she began to research the issues for me.
As a result of her efforts, the VNA is now providing
the skilled service my father needs…and Medicare is paying
for the care "
“I was totally clueless about this whole process.
The care manager made it all seem simple. Her
ability to interact with my uncle was terrific.”
“The most valuable service provided by PrimeCare was
the personal attention and support they provided.”
“I cannot list the most valuable service because all
the help the care manager gave me was valuable. I had no one but her to
assist me with my husband. You name it – doctor’s appointment,
insurance problems, nursing home issues, care guidance and support, etc.
She was always available. I tried for months to do it by myself, but I
finally realized I needed help. Because of PrimeCare, I now feel stronger
and can cope with the day-to-day problems. She is able to calm me down
when problems arise and she is my voice at the nursing home. They listen
to my PrimeCare care manager. This service is
really a MUST for anyone in my situation.”
“For months I felt the walls were caving in and I had such large
problems to resolve. My whole body would shake due to the pressure of
my situation. Since the care manager started
to assist me, I no longer feel totally alone in taking care of my sick
husband. I stopped shaking and can now function like a normal
person. She probably saved me from getting sick, too.”
“Thank you so much for all you’ve done for us
- it was such an incredible decision to try and make (move my mother to
an assisted living facility). It was far more complex and emotional than
one could imagine. It was a relief to be able to talk to the care manager
through this. I’m happy to recommend you
to all my friends and colleagues. You’re an absolute angel….”
“I want to thank you so much for taking the
time to meet with us. It was so good for us (together) to hear your suggestions
to address our situation. You were so kind and
caring."
