Aging in Place
IKOR offers numerous services to help individuals remain independent and safe while aging in the comfort of their homes. From home safety assessments to coordinating home repairs and modifications to vetting and supervising in-home care service providers, IKOR is the partner you need to help age in place safely.
Assisting Executors with Estate Administration
Serving as the estate executor/administrator for a friend or family member is an enormous undertaking and requires considerable time, knowledge, and running around. When a non-attorney first agrees to serve as a loved one’s executor, we find that most don’t fully comprehend the work involved and can quickly become daunted by the responsibility they now face. IKOR can share the work by contacting utility companies to terminate services, delivering or retrieving documents from the County/City Clerk’s office, inventorying and securing estate assets, arranging and overseeing realtors and appraisers, drafting communications to heirs, and a host of other non-legal tasks.
Care Coordination
We improve the lines of communication between primary care physicians, specialists, in-home care providers, and others who are responsible for our client’s health. By ensuring our client’s care team is on the same page, we can improve the efficiency of the delivery of their care and minimize duplicative tests, screenings, or procedures.
Our Registered Nurse Advocates can follow up on lab results, coordinate follow-up appointments or referrals to specialists, and ensure other care providers are aware of any changes in medications or treatment plans.
Concierge Services
We know life is busy and that the day-to-day tasks that absorb our time can seem never-ending. Let IKOR take some of the burdens of life’s general demands off your shoulders. Whether it’s arranging a hair appointment, dropping documents off at your attorney’s or tax preparer’s office, or shopping for the perfect outfit for your granddaughter’s wedding, our concierge services combine reliability, personalization, and ease.
Coordinating Home Repairs & Modifications
Whether your home needs repairs, renovations, or modifications, IKOR knows who the best contractors are in the area and a fair price to pay for the work you need to complete.
In addition to helping you find and hire the right contractor, we’ll also provide on-site quality assurance so you can rest assured the work you need to be done is being completed in a timely manner. The workers are being held accountable for the quality of their work.
Coordinating In-Home Services
In-home care services are becoming increasingly common and play an important role in helping individuals remain safe and independent in the comfort of their homes.
IKOR coordinates across the spectrum of home care services and can help you find the best provider based on your situation. From non-medical in-home care to hospice care, you can trust us to find and manage the best provider in the area for your needs.
Once you have selected a provider, our Registered Nurse Advocate will perform announced and unannounced visits to ensure the highest quality care is being provided and care plans are being followed
Coordinating Living Arrangements
Aging in place is popular with many seniors, but not everyone wants to grow old in the family home. Some will prefer the lifestyle offered by a retirement community, while others want to downsize to a smaller home. Perhaps a loved one needs the help provided by an assisted living community. No matter what the needs are, IKOR can help identify living arrangements that fit the preferences and needs of the individual.
Quality Assurance
From lawn care services to home repair contractors, IKOR’s Client Care Specialists can provide on-site quality assurance to ensure the service providers you’ve hired are delivering the quality you expect. Should problems arise, we will work with the provider to rectify the situation or bring in a different provider.
Our life care management team includes Registered Nurse Advocates who bring a trained eye to supervise the services provided by in-home caregivers and other medical professionals. Through our RN Advocates, IKOR can go beyond what other life care managers offer by providing oversight and quality assurance of the healthcare services being delivered.
