Chicagoland Caregivers' National Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers Membership
Geriatric care managers work privately with older adults and their families to create a plan of care that meets the needs of the older adult. They will meet with you to help you understand your loved one's needs and to learn what resources and options are available to meet those needs.

If you are asking yourself the following questions, a geriatric care manager is the answer:

  • Are my parents safe at home?
  • Are bills being paid on time?
  • Are my parents health concerns taking me away from my family?
  • What kind of help would increase safety while maintaining my parent's dignity and independence?

The National Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers (GCM) is a non-profit association of professional practitioners whose purpose is the development, advancement, and promotion of humane and dignified social, psychological, and health care for the elderly and their families through counseling, treatment, and the delivery of concrete services by qualified, certified providers. GCM is committed to working towards the highest quality of care for the elderly and their families through education, advocacy, and high standards of professional practice.
