    It was so great to work with Montclair Elder Services. They were really fast to return my call, and gave our family realistic and very helpful advice for our aging loved one.

    My brother and I struggled to find help for our stepfather with dementia. He’s always been strong-willed and refused to let any strangers help him, which put a lot of strain on our mom. Finally we found Margot. She was such a godsend, guiding us through options for care and creating a realistic plan that really improved his—and our mom’s—quality of life. I can’t thank her enough and highly recommend her to other families in need.

    Our family reached out to Montclair Elder Care for guidance and support for our aging mother. Since the COVID restrictions prohibited us from visiting her for long periods of time, we contacted Margot to guide us through her care. Margot provided exceptional service, answering questions, helping us identify our mother’s individual as well as our family needs, and helping us plan for our mother’s long term care. We highly recommend Montclair Elder Care services.

    I consulted with Montclair Elder Services about how to help my mother in law, and Margot was so helpful. She had great advice about benefits, resources, legal help and basic logistics. She has a wealth of specialized knowledge and many useful contacts in Northern California. We really appreciate her help and expertise!

    When care issues became challenging for my aunt, I was overwhelmed. Working with Margot enabled me to put excellent care in place for my aunt, while reducing my own stress level as a caregiver. I would highly recommend working with her— the sooner you contact her, the better.

    Montclair Elder Care provided incredible support and guidance to my friend. My friend was diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment at the beginning of COVID and has seen a sharp decline in recent months. We contacted Margot based on several recommendations we received and were so glad we did. She provided immeasurable help in planning for my clients needs, answering her questions about what she might expect and providing her tools and resources to help her do what she could combat the decline. We are so grateful for Margot's support and would highly recommend her services to anyone who asks.

    I called Margot and she was very responsive. I was struggling with care for my elderly father. She came up with great solutions that I had not considered. I would highly recommend her services.

    I reached out to Margot and she was outstanding. She was quick to respond and came up with effective solutions for my family. Before we found Margot, we had a lot of questions---after speaking with her, we had much more clarity. Margot helped us to prioritize what to focus on - and her insights resulted in not only peace of mind, but also minimized our financial and legal risk, and ultimately led to a much better outcome for our family. I highly recommend her.

    Geriatric Care Manager’s, Experts in Senior Care

    When I tell people I am a geriatric care manager, I am often met with a confused look. They know what a nurse or social worker is but have never heard of this occupation. I understand their confusion, since most people don’t’ know there are experts like myself who specialize in the complex care needs of older adults who have challenging on-going medical issues.

    What is a geriatric care manager?

    Geriatric Care Managers are specialists for the unique care needs of older adults. They work with elderly clients and their families to guide and assist in the process of planning and coordination of care. For families that live out of the area or have limited time to provided support, a geriatric care manager can play a pivotal role in ensuring care needs are met.

    When would you hire a geriatric care manager?

    Helping an elderly family member is challenging for all involved. A geriatric care manager can help if your elderly family member needs increased care because of physical or mental decline, coordinating care givers to ensure consistent good care is in place or transitioning to a new living environment when it is no longer possible to be at home. As you consider the next steps, remember hiring an expert can help make better decisions with a trusted expert as a resource.
