by Joanna MillerCleveland OH: What is the most efficient method to promote advocacy for seniors and family caregivers? Barbara Mascio, founder of Seniors Approve (www.seniorsapprove.com) believes she has the solution. "We are the direct link to Certified Senior Approved Services, advocating for the right of all seniors to receive excellent care."
As family members search for resources, products and services that would be appropriate for their loved ones they must sift through multiple listings. He or she may start with local yellow page listings or utilize a key word search on the Internet. This person may also use one of the various senior service print directories. What these listings dont reveal, who do you trust with your loved one?
"What the consumer wants, according to our research, is some method to ascertain which company will in fact provide an excellent quality service," states Ms. Mascio. "The consumer of elder care resources also wants one contact person, one source to locate any and all services needed now or in the future and they want this service to advocate for the senior, not the elder care business. This is exactly what we have developed."
The network of Certified Senior Approved Services is growing. The latest additions, each accepted based on the elder care industrys first consumer-driven survey process are:
