What Are Your Choices in Aging Life or GCM Client Software?

June 4, 2022

 

 

What are the Four Geriatric Care Management Databases?

 

There are only four significant aging life or GCM Software Choices ?  So the options for client software are slim. Jewel Code  and  My Junna  are two choices. Care Tree    I  Health Home  are two more options. Geriatric care managers and  ALCA managers who

have home care staffing themselves are fans of  Clear Care, which offers staffing if you also have private duty home care but is not really as user-friendly for care management needs with limited space to document & no care planning at all.

What Are Your Choices in Aging Life or GCM Client Software?

August 4, 2021

 

Are you a geriatric care manager still using paper?

All Geriatric care manager or ALCA members should have the best GCM Software

choices. But Some care managers still function on paper  instead of using GCM database .That is a bad business decision. You need to give clients gold standard service to retain them and arming your care managers with the most user-friendly fully loaded client database makes their concierge care so much easier to deliver. This gives your business a more profitable a bottom line in running a business. So spending money on a client database makes your more  money.

The Book was published just when Biden pushing  rural broadband 

The Handbook of Rural Aging  comes at a lucky time for Rural Elders and those who practice in Rural Communities , like geriatric Care Managers. President Biden has highlight the huge need for broadband in Rural States. Elder have few family to care for them in their rural homes . Adult children leave their homes, leaving their elder family with care providers, to find work as there are so few jobs. Biden’s proposal will target businesses by bringing broadband to them.

Book Covers Full Range of Rural Elders Needs

The  Handbook of Rural Aging touches all phases of rural problems and solutions. Covering topics as work and voluntarism, technology, transportation, housing, the environment, social participation, and the delivery of health and community services, the book the full breadth and scope of factors impacting the lives of rural elders .It does this with contributions from recognized scholars, administrators, and researchers.

A prolific writer in the field of health care and aging, he has published more than 175 journal articles and book chapters, and 15 books on specialized topics in aging, including social isolation, home health care, men’s health, productive aging, rural practice, family caregiving, support groups for older women, and congregate housing.
