Want Narcissistic Families Who Can Afford Homecare&Care Management?

May 5, 2022

 Types of aging families who can afford Homecare &care management

Families who can afford geriatric care management and home care long-term can do so because they are VIP  clients. They are often headed by a scion with a narcissistic borderline personality. These VIP Clients have the financial resources,  to pay 4-6K for home care and long-term geriatric care management which is usually over a million dollars in assets.  Part of this is drawn from Claudia Fine and Nick Newcombe’s excellent chapter “Entitlement in the Aging Family”, Care Managers Working With the Aging Family, Jones and Bartlett)

Narcissistic-Entitled Families:

Entitlement in these VIP families usually develops from a specific kind of “not good enough parenting” in which the parents themselves have struggled with personality disorders, most typically, in this type of family, narcissistic borderline personality  ( example Former President Trump)They struggled with a borderline personality that went undiagnosed or was formally diagnosed and untreated.

Sumner Redstone’s VIP Family Struggles

Sumner Redstone is another example of this type of narcissistic borderline personality in heading a VIP family. He was a Media Magnate who founded CBS Viacom with a net worth of 500 billion. His narcissistic borderline personality created a long-term struggle with his family over inheritance and control after he developed dementia. My Redstone was conserved by his daughter

Can Truck Drivers & VIP Elders Afford Homecare & Care Management ?

April 27, 2022

 Who Can Afford Homecare and Care Management?

afford homecare and care management

Yes, both truck drivers and narcissistic, entitled elders can afford home care and care management. Older people who can pay for private homecare and care management- long-term- can do so because they have the financial resources. These resources are usually over a million dollars in assets or having a defined pension. Part of this is drawn from Claudia Fine and Nick Newcombe’s excellent chapter ” Entitlement in the Aging Family”, Care Managers Working With the Aging Family, Jones and Bartlett) 

Narcissistic-Entitled Families can afford homecare and care management:

Entitlement in these families usually develops from a specific kind of “not good enough parenting”.In these narcissistic entitled families, the parents themselves have struggled with personality disorders, most frequently narcissistic borderline personality  (example President Trump). They grappled with a borderline personality that went undiagnosed or was formally diagnosed and untreated.

The narcissistic or borderline parent essentially does not experience the child/children as separate and discreet from themselves and, moreover, uses the child/children to serve parental needs.  This parent-child relationship is characterized by severe boundary issues in which seduction and abandonment are ever-present dynamics and where emotional unpredictability and instability are constant.  ( Fine and Newcombe- Entitlement in the Aging Family, Care Managers Working With the Aging Family)

Rich and Famous-Entitled Families Can Afford Homecare and care management

These families are identified by the parents’ socioeconomic, financial, and political prominence.  ( example President Reagan)They are families in which all basic needs, services, resources, and creature comforts are obtained via income, assets, abundant discretionary cash flow, and/or come from the political position, station, or power.  Once again, the entitlement of the family is passed from the parent to the child who in turn brings these behaviors and actions to the caregiving milieu and care management relationship.  In this category, the entitlement arises from a family that is accustomed to purchasing everything.  They look to pay others to meet their needs (as opposed to families who must themselves find and orchestrate ways to meet basic and complex needs themselves or with the help of the extra-familial system).  Often these families have household staff, i.e., nannies, butlers, drivers, private pilots, cooks, and maids.  They may have available to the business and family lawyers and accountants, as well as, teams of medical professionals and concierge physicians.  Consequently, in almost all situations they are uninvolved in processes, especially those that are difficult, stressful, and time-consuming.  ( Fine and Newcombe- Entitlement in the Aging Family, Care Managers Working With the Aging Family)

afford homecare and care management

Well-heeled Seniors can Afford Homecare and Care Management,

According to the New York Times,  middle-class retirees who buy shoes from Payless but have a defined pension can afford homecare and care management when they need it. They rode the post-war economy, held jobs long term,   through that defined pension (no 401K) face a very healthy financial picture in aging.  They worked for city, county, and state governments are teachers, truck drivers, social workers, and subway drivers, or were union members in all trades. They had a career at Xerox, IBM, Campbell Soup, and big Fortune 500 companies.

 

Professionals- Physician, Attorneys, CPAs can afford homecare and care management

This group made a very healthy living during the late 20th Century, probably had a defined pension, and have very lucrative investments that allow them to afford home care and care management. They usually come from nearly iStock_000063346301_Medium-1.jpgnormal families and have been well parented although you will find a mixture of dysfunctional aging families. Their adult children tend to be supportive of their parents, although again you will find a mixture of dysfunctional families in this category.

Who Are the Entitled Concierge Clients Who Can Afford Long Term Care?

April 25, 2022

Are you aware of the entitlement of the family? Entitlement is present in five types of these rich and famous families aging families who can afford care management, home care, and long-term care because they have vast financial resources. Part of this is drawn from Claudia Fine and Nick Newcombe’s excellent chapter ” Entitlement in the Aging Family”, Care Managers Working With the Aging Family, Jones and Bartlett)

 

 Rich and Famous-Entitled Families:

These types of aging families, who can afford care management and home care, are identified by the aging parents’ socioeconomic, financial, and political prominence.  ( example President Reagan)They are families in which all basic needs, services, resources, and creature comforts are obtained via income, assets, and abundant discretionary cash flow. Or they spring from the political position, station, or power.  The entitlement of the family is passed from the parent to the child, like a virus, who in turn brings these behaviors and actions to the caregiving milieu and care management relationship. 

Entitlement of the Family That is Rich and Famous

In these rich and famous clans, the entitlement of the family arises from being accustomed to purchasing everything and anything.  They look to pay others to meet their needs (as opposed to families who must themselves find and orchestrate ways to meet basic and complex needs themselves or with the help of the extra-familial system).  Often these families have household staff, i.e., nannies, butlers, drivers, private pilots, cooks, and maids.  They may have available to the business and family lawyers and accountants, as well as, teams of medical professionals and concierge physicians.  Consequently, in almost all situations they are uninvolved in processes of serving their own needs, especially those that are difficult, stressful, and time-consuming.  ( Fine and Newcombe- Entitlement in the Aging Family, Care Managers Working With the Aging Family)

Want to Make a Profit in an Care Management Business Home Care Business ?

Do You Want to Make a Profit As a Private Care Manager?

 

Do you want to make a profit in care management or home care you have to learn how you will make money? It must be serving VIP clients. You may start it to reach seniors in need. But, the reality is making a profit comes from serving the upper 10% or Concierge and VIP clients who can afford private pay. If you have a business and you are an entrepreneur, you need to understand” profit” and how to handle money and “like it”. Many GCMs do not understand this.  They end up going out of bankrupt

Do You Know the Customers You Want to Serve?

 

a VIP or Concierge client

To make money you must choose to go after the right customers. To start a Geriatric Care Management business PLUS to write a major section of your GCM business plan,

you must describe ” that customer” you intend to serve -your market assessment or opportunity. It tells you and investors whether you will have enough customers to make money. 

The VIP or Concierge client in the upper 10% is the customer you want. Why – Medicare does not pay for Geriatric Care management or ALCA services or Home Care . Only the top 10% can afford to pay you privately at 4-6 K a month for home care

Do a GUT CHECK

To make money you must choose to go after the right customers. To start a Geriatric Care Management business PLUS to write a major section of your GCM business plan,

you must describe ” that customer” you intend to serve -your market assessment or opportunity. It tells you and investors whether you will have enough customers to make money. 

Start with a definition of your ideal client. Example: A woman, 85 years old with chronic care needs who has an income or liquid assets of $500,000 or more. In other words, you must serve the top 10% to make money and thrive. Are you comfortable with this as an entitled demographic as a social worker or RN? Do a gut check now

You want to list the customers who will reward you the most financially.

 How many of these ideal clients are in the area you wish to serve to make a profit? You

need to do an analysis of the age and income levels. Generally, geriatric care management customers are over age 85 or are disabled younger people with incomes in the range of the top 10% in your community. Your customers are also the local overstressed adult children of clients, long-distance caregivers with family members who need help and live in your community, and third parties like Trust Officers who may hire you as a GCM such as trust officers, attorneys, conservators, or guardians.

 Know how you can make money by doing market research hot mapping & the census

You need to do market research to define the size of the market in the area where your business will be located (e.g., how many people over age 85 live in, Modesto, California, how many third-party target markets such as trust departments are in the town)?

This type of demographic information may be available from U.S. Census Bureau reports local Area Agencies on Aging, local chambers of commerce, local hospitals, and even members of the local media who have done their own surveys. You can use the Internet to retrieve U.S. Census data in your area, and in addition you can Google your State Department of Aging or Department of Finance and then find all senior services that may have data on older people in your area.

What is hot mapping?

You can also do hot mapping. A zipcode heat map outlines the boundaries of each zip code in your data set and helps you see the insights buried deep inside your numbers like where people with the highest income live in an area
