HelpForElders. com - Launch of redesigned directory used to find help for senior citizens who live at a distance from their loved ones contains resources for over 25,000 cities in the US
Many elderly people are healthy enough to stay out of a nursing home but may still require a variety of assistance in their lives. Often, their adult children and other family members live at a distance or lead a busy life themselves and cannot provide that assistance. The HelpForElders. com web site is designed to assist people in finding that help for their loved ones.
(PRWEB) May 4, 2003
In response to the growing need for help to find assistance for the aging US population, the newly redesigned HelpForElders. com web site (http://www. helpforelders. com (http://www. helpforelders. com)) has been launched. The site is geared toward people who have aging parents or loved ones who live at a distance that may be at a point in life where they need assistance. Users of the site simply select the state, and then the city, of where their elderly loved one lives. Any available resources currently in the database are then displayed.
Many people in their 30Â’s, 40Â’s, and 50Â’s have parents and other loved ones who are in the twilight of their life but still want to live independently. These people are often living at a distance from their parents and loved ones, but they realize that some help is needed. The needs for the elderly may be medical or may often simply be the need for some help around the house, transportation help, or help with cooking and shopping. Traveling to take care of them or moving them out of their home is not always realistic for the family member.
Businesses that cater to the elderly such as geriatric care managers, care takers, home care managers, elder law attorneys, and senior care consultants are encouraged to contact HelpForElders. com to get added to the directory. To receive a profile form they simply go the web site and click on the “Get Added To Our Directory” button. The database is updated on a continuous basis.
