Do you need help caring for a loved one? Berks Encore Care+ Can Help!
Dear Care+ Care Manager,
I recently visited my elderly brother and his wife at their home and was
shocked to see their current living situation. Their home has become dangerously
cluttered, and I am deeply concerned for their well-being. They are loving and kind individuals, but collectibles, clothing and sports memorabilia have
taken over their lives. There is no room to sit down to eat a meal, so they go out to eat every evening. I have tried to talk with them previously about starting
to give away or sell some of their collectables. But they just keep buying more things. I didn’t realize how bad the situation really was. I am committed
to helping them, but I know I cannot do it alone. Your guidance and support would be invaluable in creating a safe and healthy environment for my
brother and his wife.
Sincerely,
Concerned Sister
Dear Concerned Sister,
Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns. I understand how challenging and emotional this situation must be for you, and I commend your courage in seeking help for your loved ones. Berks Encore Care+ is here to help. I would like to offer my support by providing an initial complementary phone consultation to discuss your concerns in more detail. We would then schedule an appointment for me to come out to conduct an in-home visit with you and your loved ones to discuss the situation. After that visit, we would provide a detailed
assessment with recommendations for next steps in improving their situation. Together, we can create a supportive environment that will enable your brother and his wife to overcome their challenges and improve their quality of life. We can even help by finding the resources to hire to help declutter their home and address the underlying issues that have led to this situation. Thank you again for your dedication to helping your family. Please contact me to schedule a phone consultation at 484-577-4243.
Sincerely,
Care+ Care Manager
