Touching Hearts Senior Care is a privately owned company
that specializes in offering aid and assistance to seniors to help them
maintain their independence. THSC
provides in-home non-medical services to seniors and those with
disabilities. As such, THSC's caregivers
can help with anything ranging from light housekeeping and laundry to bathing
and dressing needs to incidental transportation. The caregivers may also assist with medicine
reminders and meal preparation. All THSC
caregivers are thoroughly screened before hire and are licensed, bonded, and
insured. Caregivers are available for
the above services for time frames ranging from one hour to around-the-clock
care.
THSC also specializes in Elder Care Case Management. With these services, THSC Case Managers are
able to help older adults and their loved ones with all of the following:
CARE MANAGEMENT
As Elder Care Managers, Touching Hearts Senior Care works
with older adults and their loved ones to develop a plan of care and services
that promotes autonomy and independence, and keeps them safe. We assist with Long-term Care Policy Reviews, Asset Protection Planning, Alabama
Medicaid Exempt Trust Accounts, and Medicaid/VA Eligibility.
FAMILY MEDIATION
We work with the older adult and his or her loved ones to
facilitate communication and informed decision making. This process can help avoid expensive and
emotionally taxing court involvement.
Voluntary mediation can help families confidentially settle disputes
concerning:
·
Care assessment and assignment of
responsibilities
·
Living arrangements
·
Who should be appointed power of attorney,
health care proxy, etc.
·
How finances should be managed
·
Estate and trust planning and administration
DAILY MONEY MANAGEMENT
We encourage individuals to remain in control while
receiving the right amount of support in an effort to avoid errors that could
potentially lead to both financial loss and loss of independence. We can assist you or your advisor with any of
the following:
·
Paying bills and resolving billing discrepancies
·
Identifying need to create or update important
legal documents
·
Inventorying documents and data for monthly
budget and year-end tax planning
·
Negotiating with creditors
