What to ask a geriatric care manager


Researching a Senior Care Professional 
Of course, before working with a professional in this field, you’ll want to get to know that person by asking good questions from the start. It is a good idea to ask for references and follow up by talking to those references. Start with this list of questions:
  • What are your professional credentials?
  • Are you licensed in your profession?
  • Do you have special training in aging, geriatrics, or related senior areas?
  • How long have you been providing care management services?
  • Are you available for emergencies?
  • Does your company also provide home care services?
  • How do you communicate information to me?
  • What are your fees? (Provided in writing before services begin.)
  • How do you bill – monthly, weekly?
  • How often do you re-evaluate the situation?
  • Can you provide me with references?
