Help For Mom And Dad

It is very common for families that we are assisting with senior care to be unaware of the resources that are available to help their moms and dad's needs. With the growing numbers of seniors as well as chronic illnesses such as Alzheimer's Disease and Parkinson's Disease there is the growing need for families to be well informed, get the assistance they need and be prepared for the future needs of their loved ones. Southern Companions' goal is to be a helpful resource to families and direct them to their needs in addition to home care services. One of the ways that we stay informed of senior care providers and educated on senior care issues is through local senior provider networks. North Georgia Senior Resources is a senior provider group in the Gainesville area where our home office is located. It is a group of senior providers that meets monthly to support and serve our senior community through education, networking and outreach. NGSR is a member of the Hall County Chamber and participates in local events such as expos, Senior Health Day with Legacy Link and the Alzheimer's Walk. The monthly meetings allow the various senior providers the opportunity to meet and learn about other senior providers including assisted living communities, hospice, home health, senior financial services and much more. Another tool that is very helpful for families in the North Georgia Community is the North Georgia Senior Resources' website and the directory. For those families who are in need of direction and guidance in the senior care for their loved ones, please visit www.Northgeorgiaseniorresources.com for more information. If you are a senior provider, please visit our site to find out when our next meeting is and come visit us.
