Elder Care Announcement:

Delivering the best of the best! The Caregiver’s Resource Helpline Partners with Senior Approved Services

September 12, 2005  Atlanta, Ga. - Responding to the growing number of people caring for an aging family member, the Caregiver’s Resource Helpline (www.caregiversresource.com), a toll-free (888-791-7301) automated voice-information service, provides easy access to professional guidance, emotional reassurance and the “trusted” resources needed to help plan and manage the care of an aging family member.

Available 24-hours, callers can simply listen to information dealing with the most common concerns of caregiving, connect through the Directory of Senior Approved Services to local advertisers, receive a fax-brochure and/or consult with advertisers during normal business hours. All advertisers are independently certified to have a 90% or higher customer satisfaction rating.

This is the one call that does it all!  Often unprepared, a caregivers greatest challenge is knowing what resources are available, how to find them and what to do with them.  The Caregiver’s Resource Helpline helps to shorten the learning curve and equip caregivers with effective guidance, advice, reassurance and “trusted” resources. 

“Partnering with Senior Approved Services (www.seniorapprovedservices.com) is a match made in heaven.” says John L Webb, Jr. owner/operator of the Caregiver's Resource Helpline.  “In my experience as a medical home care social worker and hospital discharge planner, I counseled patients and family members who were anxious and unprepared for managing the circumstances and impact of a sudden illness. Creating the Caregiver's Resource Helpline was a “heart-felt” response to find a way to empower them with solution oriented information and guidance to navigate the maze of decision-making to care for an aging family member.  Working with Senior Approved Services, the industry’s first consumer-driven survey process gives the added assurance of linking callers with ‘trusted” resources who can deliver on what they say.”

Piloting in metro-Atlanta and scheduled to launch September 2005, promoting the Caregiver's Resource Helpline nationwide to doctors, hospital discharge planners, senior citizen centers, social and community services etc. is an attractive opportunity for corporations to sponsor and demonstrate support for seniors and for advertisers with direct product or services to aid seniors and their caregivers.

In the best interest of the consumer, the Caregiver’s Resource Helpline and Senior Approved Services partnership creates the opportunity to promote the “best of the best”. Corporations wishing to sponsor this initiative or advertisers willing to demonstrate worthiness should contact John L Webb, Jr. 888-791-7301 or Barbara Mascio , Senior Approved Services, 877-620-6448.
