Health and Disability
From physical problems to mental health and dementia-related problems, we can interact with the health care system effectively to ensure the best client outcome. We often attend doctor appointments and act as a liaison to facilitate communication between the doctor, client, and family. Our professional staff is trained to help determine types of services – such as home health, rehabilitation, or housing – that are right for a client. We are available to assist and monitor those services.
Financial
Services may include reviewing or overseeing bill paying or consulting with a client’s accountant or Power of Attorney. Aging Life Care Professionals provide information on federal and state entitlements, connecting families to local programs when appropriate. They also help clients and families with insurance concerns, claims, and applications.
Housing
Our staff is able to help families and clients evaluate and select the appropriate level of housing or residential options.
Families
Our expert Care Managers are able to help families adjust, cope and problem-solve around long-distance and in-home caregiving, addressing care concerns, internal conflicts, and differences of opinion about long-term care planning.
Local Resources
Our team has extensive knowledge about the costs, availability, and quality of local resources in Chicago and the North Shore.
Advocacy
We are strong and effective advocates for clients and their families, promoting the client’s wishes with health care and other providers, ensuring that the client’s needs are being adequately addressed.
Legal
Elite Rehabilitation and Care Management has relationships with local legal experts, like elder law attorneys, estate planners, and Powers of Attorney.
Crisis Intervention
Elite Rehabilitation and Care Management offers crisis intervention when it is needed, helping clients navigate through emergency departments and hospitalizations, rehabilitation stays and ensuring that adequate care is available to the client. For families that live at a distance, this can be a much-needed 24/7 emergency contact.
Balance and Fall Prevention
Our clinical approach is to assess balance, strength, range of motion, and gait. When deficiencies are noted, it is our commitment to address and offer training to help mitigate fall risk.
Home Safety Evaluation
Aging on your own terms, in your home, often requires simple modifications for safety. Our clinical team is able to make simple, cost-effective recommendations at no additional cost.
