We remain flexible according to your needs and preferences, family wishes, and lifestyle. Comprehensive In-Home Assessments Our friendly, professional care manager will come to your home and conduct an assessment interview to get to know you, your needs, and your goals. The care manager will evaluate your living environment, medical history/medications, safety, self-care abilities, emotional and psychological functioning, and financial and legal issues.
