CarePatrol the nation's largest senior placement organization is partnering with healthcare providers to counsel families on options for moving loved ones to safer environments in order to make room for COVID-19 patients

When it comes to our vulnerable senior population being discharged from a hospital or healthcare facility and going somewhere safe comes with incredible responsibilities said Becky Bongiovanni Certified Senior Advisor and Brand President of CarePatrol There are important added measures we are taking to still get care for loved ones while our population at-large is also being told to shelter-in-place

The franchise network has introduced virtual consultations with families offering online tours of senior communities at the same time that those facilities are taking added precautionary measures to keep their residents safe

During this time of uncertainty our locations are continuing to work closely with our network of over 32000 senior living communities across the nation and we are supporting families making difficult care decisions in order to prevent a worse situation for a loved one said Bongiovanni It is also our desire to support our healthcare workers who are the heroes on the front line  Recently CarePatrol locations have started donating hand sanitizers face masks and meals to local healthcare workers We will continue to support case managers with timely and safer discharges We want to do what we can to relieve their burden by counseling families to find safer care options expeditiously

And for families hesitant to move a loved one into a community during the pandemic CarePatrol owners are working closely with ComForCare franchisees across the country to arrange for in-home care as an alternative
