Alan G. Care Companion in Northbrook, IL 60062

I am an experienced, educated, compassionate companion who understands the unique needs of elderly persons. I bring empathy, maturity and a natural ability to connect with and see to the well-being to your family members, enabling you to experience the true peace of mind that comes with knowing that he or she is in capable, caring hands. I have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, and have a deep reservoir of patience that is essential in caring for the elderly. In addition, I am experienced in serving as a successful advocate and "go-between" between you and medical and healthcare professionals, including physicians, hospitalists, hospital administrators, nursing staff — the entire set of healthcare professionals you are likely to encounter when your family member requires hospitalization and approval for care. From experience, I know how to interact with physicians and hospital staff so that they clearly and fully understand your and your family member's medical issues and concerns and I help them arrive at the best possible decision. I drive throughout the Chicago area and would be honored to help provide the care your family members deserve.
