How does Care Management work at Anew Dawn?
At some stages in our lives, we need a little extra help. I am a registered nurse with 30 years of nursing experience, I have also been a caregiver for several of my family members for many years. I have first hand knowledge in how difficult it can be to manage health care needs of family when living at a distance and/or needing to manage my own life in the process. I would have been so grateful to have a professional with the knowledge and compassion to assist with the ins and outs of meeting my families health care needs. At Anew Dawn Care Management you can have a peace of mind knowing that I will care for your loved one as my own.
​
This is my business and I will oversee each case with dedication and compassion.
Professional services come with extensive knowledge of community resources, acute care nursing experience, home healthcare knowledge, assisted living knowledge, home health care and care management expertise to assure
you will receive the very best in care management.
With one phone call - I will arrange a home or facility visit to access the current health, lifestyle
and aging challenges, mobility issues, nutritional meals, doctors visits, medications and home safety.
​
What is Care Management?
​
Anew Dawn Care Management provides you and your family with a concierge Registered Nurse. I will attend Physician appointments with you and collaborate with your Health care team. I will attend any Emergency Room visits, keeping your family up to date on your progress. Assist in scheduling MD visits, assist in placement of health care providers and overseeing them.
The initial assessment is a face to face conversation with the patient to learn of their medical needs and lifestyle preferences along with a home safety assessment, medication assessment, and physical assessment.
After the visit, the client and family will received a written care plan proposal. Heather will schedule a phone consultation to discuss the plan implementation, and at what level of care management the client and family are in need of.
​
Care management is often not initiated by the patient but a concerned love one.
Anew Dawn Care Management is not a financial stretch as in geriatric care management.
Concierge care management may be short term after an acute incident hospitalization or new diagnosis requiring lifestyle adjustments, transitioning into a independent living facility or the medical trained communicator for adult children care giving for a parent from a distance.
These should be stress free, seamless and medically supervised situations. With Anew Dawn Care management- they are. Please feel free to call or e mail me with any questions you may have.

It is a pleasure to refer clients to Heather. She was the RN in my private practice for years - excellent observation and organizational skills - a real pro. Under her supervision, I rest assured my patients are being observed and any health changes noted while living alone. ~Fred Harvey, MD
