“In 2004 I was appointed guardian of my aunt by the courts of
Texas. As part of this grant the judge recommended the services of a
Geriatric Care Manager. As a resident of Pennsylvania, the distance
to Texas soon made the wisdom of this suggestion evident. My aunt is
now in an Assisted Living facility in Dallas, Texas. I was extremely
fortunate in selecting Carol Franzen as her Geriatric Care Manager.
In the year that has passed, Carol has faithfully visited and overseen
the needs of my aunt’s physical and psychological progress and
recommended steps that could be taken to make my Aunt’s life better.
I could not possibly have served as her guardian without the assistance
of Ms. Franzen. She has truly been a gem in the performance of her duties
to both my Aunt and myself."

My father always looked forward to Carol's visits,
her wit, charm and intellect. She always thought about the kinds of
places he would enjoy visiting, and she was always right. The visits
were a real highlight for him, and Carol's involvement was a great comfort
for us.

“Carol's assistance came at a difficult and
painful time for our family, and we are very grateful for the kindness
and support she gave to Mother and the rest of us. Her knowledge of
the rules associated with Medicare and insurance, as well as her familiarity
with the procedures related to nursing facilities helped us navigate
unfamiliar territory more easily. On every visit Carol would take the
time to visit with Mother and spend quality time with her. Mother's
present memory was impaired, but not her long-term memory. Carol would
get Mother to talk about her childhood and things that happened in the
past. This gave Mother an opportunity to interact with someone other
than family. We all wanted to help Mother, but frequently felt at a
loss as to how to go about it. Carol was an invaluable resource that
helped us do just that.”
