Elder and Family Support

If you or a family member is facing difficulties while growing older, give us a call. We can guide you through the complex web of social, emotional, medical and financial issues before you.

Our licensed geriatric social workers are able to assess the situation, develop an individualized care plan, counsel and support elders and family members, help arrange in-home care or out-of-home placement and coordinate services. We can even find assistance for an out-of-town loved one.

Many spouses, partners, children, other relatives and friends do not think of themselves as "caregivers" for an elderly individual. They believe that they are simply doing the right thing to help someone they care about, whether it's in town or from a distance.
We at JSS recognize the importance of these efforts and that the challenges can be daunting. Therefore, we strive to provide concrete assistance, support and counsel to help lighten the load.
