#240 When SCI and Aging and Being Discharged from Inpatient SCI Rehab: Options to Consider with Care Manager Ellen Platt
In this episode, we welcome Ellen Platt, founder of The Option Group and a seasoned expert in care management with over 30 years of experience. Ellen specializes in providing personalized guidance to families navigating care options for loved ones with disabilities, chronic illnesses, or aging-related needs.
Ellen shares her insights into the unique challenges faced by individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCI) as they age. While aging may not be an immediate concern for some listeners, this episode offers valuable information on planning for short-term and long-term living arrangements, especially when family support is unavailable. Ellen explains how a care manager can help develop personalized solutions, even for a short time, and the important factors to consider when adapting to changing needs.
This conversation is full of practical advice and options you may not have thought of before, making it a must-listen for anyone navigating care decisions for themselves or a loved one.
Stay tuned.
