Why Long Distance Care Providers Can Afford $$$ Long Term Care

May 9, 2022

long-distance care providers flying to aging parent emergency

Long-Distance Care Providers Are in Top 10 % – Can Afford Private Pay Long Term Care.

An excellent article in the New York Times about long-distance care providers shows that the majority of long-distance care providers are in the top 10% and can afford care managers and home care. Family caregivers in the lower 90% of the economy who live very close to aging loved ones – can render direct parent care but have less income to afford home care or care management. Why- family care providers who live near their aging parents statistically have only a high school education and thus cannot afford private pay long-term care.

Families at a Distance Highly Educated, Have Higher Incomes

The reason adult children at a distance, can afford private pay long-term care, cited by the NYT article, is long-distance care providers,  remain devoted to being their parent’s family caregivers, even at a large cost to them mentally and physically because of distance. But they are in the top 10% economically because they have college and professional degrees and thus are much more likely to live much farther from their parents because of their professional employment.

They are a highly educated group with 70% reporting a college degree or graduate school. They are quite affluent: 50% reported an income of $75,000 or much higher. Eighty-five percent owned their own home. The majority were working: 62% full-time and 18% part-time.

This means they can afford to private pay for long-term care, compared to those with high school education, in part because they have more job opportunities in faraway big cities or states. The high school graduate’s income is less than a college-educated caregiver therefore they can rarely afford home care or care management or private pay long-term care.

Long-Distance Care Providers Become Desperate to Get Help From Private Pay Long Term Care

Long-distance care providers are flying or driving to both visit and care for an aging family member. But these far-away family caregivers become exhausted as care needs increase and become desperate for a solution, which is a care management and home care. These long-distance providers adult children usually understand that their parents are deteriorating with age and are savvy enough that they have researched options and already found you on the web ( a reason to have a great website).

Families at a Distance Pay up to $8000 a year or more Traveling to Aging Parents

Those caregivers who live between 1 and 3 hours from the care recipient report spend an average of $386 per month; those who live more than 3 hours away report a monthly expenditure of $674.So Long Distance care providers spend between an additional $4632 and $ 8088 a year in care . A care manager can do a caregiver assessment of the long-distance caregiver, allowing you to help them with the stress and expense of constant emergency travel, (Read Assessing and Supporting the Family Caregiver in Handbook of Geriatric Care Management, 4th edition.)

Marketing Phrases for Concierge Care ClientsWhat Can Care Managers and Private Duty Home Care Do for Long Distance Care Providers?

Care Managers can bring them vital tools for better sibling and family communication like technology that they can use, to help aging families from a distance . Recommending Family dashboards and communication platforms like Slack, Google Chat, and Microsoft Teams, among others, allow their family care team to work in a cohesive way. You as the care manager can arrange private duty homecare so when the long-distance care provider visits they can be ” Just Family”.

When emergencies occur the care manager can be at the home or hospital immediately, and judge whether the hospitalization warrants an emergency trip to family or friend emergency flight, by keeping long-distance caregivers informed, thus reducing stress, unnecessary travel, and loss of time at work or actually losing jobs ( Working With Long Distance Families: Tools the Care Manager Can use) Care Managers Working With the Aging Family

Find the VIP Concierge Client-Sign Up New Webinar-Sales and Marketing

April 18, 2022

Sign up for my New Webinar Sales and Marketing to Find the Concierge Client

Find the VIP Concierge Client. The target market for a private geriatric care management business is not the 65 million families who need care management services. Find the VIP Concierge Client in the much smaller subset of those families who can afford to hire a GCM or aging life care manager who can pay the $4000-6000 a month for home care and are willing to pay for the services that GCMs and can actually find their way to you.

How Do you Find the Concierge Client to sign up new VIP Clients Who Can Afford You?

Your marketing message must say your business:

  • offers concierge solutions to the grueling aging care decisions families and clients must make.
  •  offers expert professional assistance with the tough choices aging family members must make about elder housing, medical care, personal care, finances, end of life, and the myriad mind-boggling decisions they face.
  •  offers support to the aging client and the whole aging family and can transform the family to get care for the client 
  • offers support and care  to the caregiver to keep them from burnout
  • offers the exact product they will need to solve their problem like dementia care, moving an elder, quality of life, VIP care 
Find the VIP Concierge Client

But is this really the message to which VIPs or the upper 10% respond- add this?

  • you respond immediately to their needs as they expect
  • you offer community resources like private drivers, personal chefs 
  • you can make sure that they will be in a top-rated hospital with a VIP program that offers all the amenities they expect
  • You will arrange concierge services like massages and spa visits for family caregivers who are stressed by caregiving for their elder parents

April 4, 2022

 

Geriatric Care Managers need VIP Private Pay Home Care Clients because they can afford you.

But you must find them and that takes utilizing the 4 P’s of marketing

 Check Out My Newest Webinar on Signing Up VIP  Concierge Clients 

Geriatric Care Managers need VIP Clients. To find them the classic four Ps of marketing (product, price, place, and promotion) As as well as the four A’s and 4 C’s to find  these VIP Clients 

  • Marketing 4 A’s

  •  Accountability: to find VIP clients your marketing must prove its contribution to the business and be accountable for measurable results; which is you are getting new VIP clients.

    · 

    Analysis: to find VIP clients, your marketing requires analysis, which must no longer be an afterthought. Instead, measurable results will drive strategy; are you picking up VIP clients and, if your marketing to find them works, do more of it.

     Accuracy: to find VIP clients your performance metrics must be consistently and accurately measured across all marketing initiatives; that is, tracking results across all social media, speaker’s bureau, blogs, meetings with 3rd parties in other words through your entire marketing plan.

    Action: to find VIP clients your optimization is only successful when it’s an ongoing process of leveraging your analysis to take decisive actions toward improving results; that is, change tactics to do more of what is working to sign up VIP clients. 

        

    Geriatric Care Managers need VIP Clients & must also  know Marketing 3 C’s

  • Conversation: Use Social media channels that have created the need for a two-way conversation that draws VIP clients seeking services to those discussing those services.     

  • Collaboration: Success in marketing comes from collaboration through ALCA referrals through marketing meeting with third parties as there are simply too many needs for one entity to meet.

    ·

    Culture: Plays an important role now that organizations are seeking partners to extend their capabilities like ALCA.
