Los Angeles resident Jacob Graff is the CEO of an eldercare company also based in LA. In this role, Jacob Graff is with the acquisition, development, and management of senior centers. In recent years, businesses have cropped up in the last few years that support larger healthcare facilities with assisting seniors’ needs.
Start-up companies that directly assist facilities provide a range of support. One type of business focuses on providing seniors with a coordinator that can help them with getting the resources they need. Referred to as a life-care manager, this person is more than a caregiver and acts as an advocate for the senior. Some companies focus on helping seniors improve their memory. To help seniors retain their mental acuity, companies have devised games and brain fitness exercises.
Finally, some businesses support those who care for senior citizens. One online site provides a community for those who are caring for their elderly relatives. This site is a place where caregivers can find resources, including a list of assisted living facilities, and get emotional support from others.
