Jay Kweskin and Connie Moore will highlight what a care manager does and how care managers can help your clients and families navigate through the many aspects of senior care.

Three Key Takeaways:
1. How a care manager can be useful for your clients and their families.
2. The methods and processes used in evaluating the client's needs.
