Family Centered Assistance

Ask older people what they want most as they age and they will say "to live in

my own home for as long as possible and to avoid becoming a burden to my family."

We are committed to meeting the day-to-day problems that older adults, and the families

responsible for their care, face as they strive to maintain independent living.

September Services establishes a care team for each client which consists of a supervising Registered

Nurse (RN), a Gerontologist and the client's hourly care giver(s). This same caring team stays

together with the client and family throughout our time together. After carefully working with the client

and family to find the right care giver(s), we ensure that the same care giver(s) remain with the client

everyday (except for the rare occasions when the care giver cannot be present). All of the professional

and care giving staff are our employees. We do not use contract labor. We carry insurance and

bonding on all employees.

Each September Services client is assigned to a CareTeam consisting of a registered nurse,

a gerontologist and hourly caregivers. Based on the care required, caregivers may be

registered nurses (RN), licensed vocational nurses (LVN), or home health aides (HHA).

The caregivers hours are based on the needs and convenience of the client and family.

Caregivers may be employed for a minimum of four (4) hours per visit to a maximum of

twenty-four (24) hours per day. The CareTeam RN and gerontologist visit the client’s home

on a regular basis. Their visits allow them to reassess and evaluate the client, supervise

the caregivers and make progress reports to the client, the family and the client’s

primary physician.

September Services goes beyond the restrictions set for medicare to offer aging adults

long-term custodial nursing care. We are able to tailor all services to meet the specific

needs and requests of the client and client family. Whatever is the best medicine –

whether it is an outing to a concert or walking the beloved family dog – we see that our

client  receives just that.
