Why Geriatric Care Management (GCM)?
Dr. David B. Samadi, a regular contributor on medical issues on The Fox News Channel, recently appeared on the subject of overseeing the care of your relatives and why it needs to be current.
His report included the need to have the nursing facility oversee nutrition, safety and fall precautions and abuse and neglect prevention. For this oversight to be truly effective one needs to employ a Geriatric Care Manager (GCM), a fairly new position.
Today’s healthcare system is complex, short doctor visits, rushed communication, and fragmented care often leave families worried about their loved one’s safety and well-being.
