Circles of Care, directed by geriatric care manager Ann Cason, is a network of professional and care associates that can help families with the challenges of caring for an aging loved one. Services include assessments, care plans, care coordination, companion services, connecting with caregivers and other sources of help, and counseling or coaching. Common challenges that Circles of Care can help with include: What to do when parents are far away Whether a loved one should remain in their own home, move to assisted living, long-term care or foster care, or move in with other family members Care for the caregiver Dealing with isolation and depression Working with dementia and other confusional disorders Working with difficult behavior Sorting out challenging family issues and dynamics surrounding the care of an elder. Working with grief, regret and fresh starts End of life issues The particular strength of the Circles of Care approach is the value placed not only on the elder, but also on the people and points of view that surround the older person: family, friends, caregivers, professionals, neighbors, and so on. This helps create a harmonious, healing and even light-hearted environment. Ann Cason is the author of Circles of Care (Shambhala), which is described as "...a unique addition to the literature of caregiving, an authoritative and deeply felt book that sheds light on an extraordinary range of elder care challenges and how to meet them."

Heart _n Home is committed to the idea that hospice isn_t about dying. It_s about living and making each journey the best it can be. It_s about living life to its fullest, up to the final moment. It_s about receiving comfort and care. It_s about surrounding yourself and your loved ones with emotional physical and spiritual support. Hospice doesn_t give the power to shorten or prolong life, just the power to live it as you choose; to be at home, if you wish; to be pain-free; to be comforted and cared for. This is the essence of hospice. This is what we want people to understand and this is why we love what we do.
