GuardiaCare Services

I am continually looking at the senior resources available in the area, and met with Mary Ellen Harned from GuardiaCare yesterday. I was unaware of many of the services they provide. They have an adult day care center on the premises. They can be named as the guardian by the court for people who are unable to handle their assets. They also provide payee and financial management for people who are unable to handle that aspect of their lives. They will pay the bills, apply for benefits, perform some limited investing and ensure that client's housing, utilities, medical expenses, insurance and food are provided for.

Some people cannot manage their own finances due to a cognitive impairment, others because of a mental illness or addiction they cannot control. GuardiaCare will ensure their basic necessities are taken care of so they are not exploited or made homeless. If you would like to learn more, you can call them at 502-585-9949.
