The Dream Team for Care Management
Facing Aging Care Challenges Are Easier With the Right Team
Building your team starts with our initial discussion followed by a meeting to review all the current care challenges, needs, and requirements.
From this meeting, we work together to develop a road map that is tailored to the specific needs and determines the level and type of services needed. One of the underlying thoughts in all planning is how to help you manage costs effectively.
Our approach includes problem-solving and actionable care options covering:
- Streamlining Healthcare Navigation, Coordination, and Monitoring
- Determining Affordability of Care Options
- Overseeing Moves & Transitions
- Supporting Benefit & Entitlement Usage (Insurance, Medicare, Medigap, Medicaid, and VA)
- Organizing Social Engagements and Events
- Facilitating External Services Including Meals, Emergency Response Systems, and Area Agency on Aging Services (these services are billed separately by the service provider)
- Monitoring Environment and Psychosocial Factors (Family Dynamics, In-Home Care Providers, Caregiver Stress, and Activities of Daily Living)
- Assisting with Advanced Care Planning
- Managing Crisis or Emergency Situations
- Reinforcing Solutions to Memory and Dementia Concerns
- Ensuring Their Safety is Maximized
- Fostering Holistic Social and Spiritual Well-Being
- Evaluating Current Systems and Suggestions for Necessary Modifications
We are committed to delivering the highest quality of care, not only for the older adult but also for family caregivers and associated professionals involved, ensuring that all needs are met.
Planning for now, the future, and the unexpected.

Testimonials
“With a combination of aging and out-of-state family, having a local care management resource is very important to me. I’ve known Kira for several years and her responsiveness, training and experience have given me confidence in her abilities and the peace of mind I was seeking. She also provides peace of mind to my family who know that there is a professional and responsible care manager with whom they can consult as the need arises. I‘m pleased to give Kira my highest recommendation.”

“I am so grateful to have had Kiralie’s expertise with my mother’s care coordination, and for your guidance transitioning that coordination to a Care Manager in her city. Thank you for all you do for your clients!”

“Kiralie has been acting as geriatric care manager for my sister, who has early-stage dementia, for approximately a year and a half. She has been enormously helpful, particularly with respect to my sister’s healthcare, but also with helping to keep her apartment organized, follow through with appointments, and find rewarding activities. Thanks to Kiralie, my sister has been able to continue to live and thrive independently.”
Esther
“When my husband was in rehab after he broke his hip, they were ready to discharge him. I could not take care of him at home and I had no idea what to do. I started looking at places where he could go after rehab and it was all so expensive. He had a long-term insurance policy, but I was worried that we wouldn’t get reimbursed. Kiralie helped guide my search and I found a really nice place that would take good care of him. She coordinated with the rehab and the assisted living to make sure he had everything he needed when he was transferred. When he got there, Kiralie helped me file the long-term care claim and coordinated the clinical interview so that it could be processed. There were so many steps and Kiralie helped make an overwhelming process less stressful because she helped me understand what was going on. I am so grateful for her.”
