While demand for respite care has grown significantly over the last five years, respite care that provides interaction with peers has added to that demand. “There is more readiness on the part of Baby Boomers who are serving as primary caregivers to their aging parents to seek out ways for their loved ones to remain engaged socially during planned time away,” said Robert F. Brooks, CEO of ElderCarelink. “As today’s caregivers - and those in their care - better understand the part that social interaction plays in maintaining mental and physical health, respite care that focuses on filling social needs will be increasingly valued.”

The numbers are consistent with growing trends for elderly to be cared for in the home rather than in nursing homes and assisted living centers. Using home care providers for non-medical care can support families in their care efforts and support seniors in continuing to live independently. Utilizing home health care and personal care providers can be more cost effective as well. Elder home care services often include meal preparation, personal care services such as grooming and dressing, household services and transportation, according to the ElderCarelink survey.

Businesses that serve the elder population are welcome to inquire about the certification process by visiting www.qualityeldercare.com/providers or by phoning toll free at 877-620-6448. QCO serves seniors nationwide and so your medical and non-medical service is of interest, regardless of the location of your business.

Cleveland, OH (PRWEB) January 4, 2005 — Quality Care Options, LLC announces newly added Certified Senior Approved Services to their exclusive network of resources. Each of the businesses serving the senior citizen and his or her adult child or caregiver received the Certification based on actual feedback derived from the elder care industry’s first consumer-driven survey process.

The most popular forum topics include: how to choose an assisted living facility, what treatment and care is available for a loved one with Alzheimer's or related dementia, what resources are available to help pay for long-term care, how to select a caregiver for home care, how to qualify for Texas Medicaid, nursing home care and concerns, initiating a senior move, medical and health care legal documents, and understanding the pros and cons of a reverse mortgage.

Ashland, MA (PRWEB) February 20, 2006 — Non-medical home care tops the list of preferred options for those seeking assisted living and senior communities for seniors primarily between the ages of 75 and 84. Other choices for senior care included emergency response services, adult day care centers, group health care facilities and nursing homes.

As we continue to match quality providers from our network to our consumers, it is likely we will see elder home care providers expanding services and developing more targeted specialties to meet this growing need in elder care.

The survey was established by ElderCarelink to provide crucial information about a growing demographic in an effort to best serve families seeking elder care and services. “The trend toward caring for our seniors in the home is evident as concerns about quality of life and reluctance to turn to dependent living situations such as nursing homes or assisted living grow,” said Robert F. Brooks, Chief Executive Officer of ElderCarelink. “As we continue to match quality providers from our network to our consumers, it is likely we will see elder home care providers expanding services and developing more targeted specialties to meet this growing need in elder care.”

Families accessing the forum not only reside in Texas, but nationwide and internationally, finding themselves in the role of a long distance caregiver. The Ask a Question senior forum is helping families gain insight into their current situation, by industry experts, at no charge to them. The more knowledge one has the better decisions they can make.

Five years ago Cheryl Culbertson founded Elder Options of Texas, the leading elder care and senior housing website for the state of Texas. Recognizing the need for an employment site that concentrated specifically on job seekers and employers alike within the aging industry, Culbertson created ElderJobs.com.

Brooks, co-founder of ElderCarelink, who has an extensive background as a strategist and executive in areas of healthcare, eldercare, technology, and marketing provides a unique perspective on the latest eldercare trends. ElderCarelink, the nation’s leading internet referral service which connects consumers to providers of eldercare products and services, gathers a wealth of statistics and trend information from the families who are searching for these products and services. The demographic data, which has been compiled from nearly 150,000 needs surveys, is incredibly helpful in understanding the intersection between what people want, what they need and what is actually available.

Cutner & Associates, P.C., announces the creation of The Best Elder Law Blog to provide resources for the elderly or disabled, and for elder care professionals who care for them.

Ashland, MA (PRWEB) August 1, 2006 — Respite care – care that provides a short-term reprieve for full-time caregivers – has often been used by those in need of support with daily living, or to help care for those who suffer from chronic disabilities or illness such as Alzheimer’s disease. But as today’s population ages, respite care may be seeing a shift in focus toward social needs. Seniors, while still dependent on loved ones for care, are living longer and leading more active lives. As such, they are as likely to require companionship and recreational activities as medical care or assistance with daily living activities.

Quality Care Options (www.qualityeldercare.com) and its sister company Seniors Approve Free Web Community (www.seniorsapprove.com) advocates for the right of all seniors to receive excellent care and to most importantly, remain safe in the receiving of that care. QCO links seniors (and their family members) to elder care businesses that hold a 90% or higher ’senior’ approval rating.

Driftwood, TX (PRWEB) April 5, 2007 — In an effort to assist families facing complex questions regarding elder care, Elder Options of Texas (www.elderoptionsoftexas.com) an Internet based information and resource site for individuals 50+, announces the launching of a new senior forum moderated by industry experts. It's called simply "Ask a Question". Questions pertaining to specific legal documents required for making important health care related decisions are also addressed.

ElderJobs.com is also attracting the attention of hundreds of college graduates with degrees in fields such as Nursing Home Administration, Gerontology and Social Work, who frequent the site searching for employment opportunities, as well as many others seeking jobs in the elder care industry.

Where law and social programs focus on the needs of the elderly or disabled, it would be logical to expect and assume that regulations, applications, and forms would be simple and easy to understand. However, the opposite is frequently true. Typically, complexity, confusion, and misinformation are the standard.

Reaching the Decision Makers of the Healthcare and Elder Care Industry

(PRWEB) October 9, 2003 –There are 35 million Americans currently over the age of 65, and that number is expected to increase to 40 million elderly citizens by the year 2010. This expanding elder population is generating a dramatic increase in employment opportunities in the elder care industry, and a growing demand for qualified, experienced professionals.

For businesses marketing directly to the senior citizen, please see http://www.qualityeldercare.com/providers to review how to apply for Senior Approved Certification as no advertising is accepted for this segment of our business.

Barbara Mascio, Founder of QCO, has been inundated with requests from healthcare businesses for recommendations towards resources that would further promote an elder or healthcare related business. These requests include; ‘Who should I call for the best liability insurance coverage? ‘Who do you recommend as a resource for market analysis? ‘How do I start an elder care business? and even ‘Who can handle our maintenance and lawn care?

The numbers are consistent with growing trends for elderly to be cared for in the home rather than in nursing homes and assisted living centers. Using home care providers for non-medical care can support families in their care efforts and support seniors in continuing to live independently. Utilizing home health care and personal care providers can be more cost effective as well.

Home remodeling is yet another emerging solution which families are considering, as they cope with aging parents who are not interested in moving to an assisted living facility or to a nursing home. This option joins non-medical homecare and adult daycare as some of the fastest growing provider businesses in eldercare as more and more seniors prefer to “age-in-place” as long as possible.
