The Professional Geriatric Care Manager’s Blog

A week in the Life of a Geriatric Care Manager

As a new Geriatric Care Manager at Distinctive Care of  Bergen County, I am thrilled to be here.  I am slowly becoming acclimated to my  work environment and my wonderful team of professionals.  This past week I visited 2 clients that I am very quickly learning about.  My first visit with Ms. M.  who is struggling with the challenges of her recently diagnosed CVA and the confusion and dependency it has very suddenly thrust apon her.  She has made some strides with her recent medication changes and weekly case manager visits have noted her progress. I am slowly making adaptations to her plan of care that continue to allow her to remain living at home.
