AgeWell CEO & Founder Joel Theisen joined us in the studio this morning to show seniors and their families how to break the roller coaster of health care with a free, easy-to-use Navigation Kit.
This kit helps seniors navigate the complexities of the health care system and match services and resources to their unique needs and wishes. Its three-step design is easy to follow, and most importantly guides seniors through many of the questions and concerns they have about aging well. It can also be a great discussion starter for families.
1. Identify and prioritize your unique needs and wishes - look beyond just health care and safety issues to what puts a sparkle in your eye, what's your passion in life.
2. Select a trusted advisor to explore and match your unique needs and wishes with the best services the community has to offer.
3. Navigate those services to best fit your needs.
The goal, according to Theisen, is to empower seniors to make informed decisions and improve their lives - now, and for the future. That will enable them to focus more on aging well, and preventing the hospitalizations and emergency visits that so often compromise their well-being and quality of life.
Perfect as a holiday gift for friends and loved ones, or an anytime gift to show you care, this free tool provides seniors with the steps they can take to determine what really matters in their lives, and then outlines the steps for them to make that happen.
Just named one of the 2009 Small Business Success Stories by Twin Cities Business Magazine, AgeWell has been among the fastest growing companies in the region due to its unique Life Care Management approach which provides seniors with a trusted advisor who works with them to develop a comprehensive Life Plan that will meet and fulfill their needs and wishes. AgeWell provides the services directly through one of its divisions - AgeWell Home Care or AgeWell Housing Solutions - or coordinates the services through partnerships with the best public and private organizations in the community.
