The Salus Starting Point is our comprehensive approach that assembles an integrated team of specialists who can address the total picture of your caregiving needs.

Learning to cope with the natural aging process is one of life's events that we all must deal with. And learning to navigate through the complexities of the healthcare industry presents a whole new set of challenges. That's where the value of The Salus Starting Point is found. We offer a consulting service that addresses the full spectrum of care, including financing options, care management and caregiving options.

To devise a program that is right for you, we begin with a complementary interview with a Salus Care Manager. Our Care Managers are experienced healthcare professionals, with backgrounds as social workers, nurses and hospital case managers. They will sit down with you and guide you through a pre-caregiving interview that pinpoints your individual needs and requirements. Upon completion, this interview will help give you a better understanding of not only the caregiving support you need now, but also the possible caregiving options you will need in the future.

Hand in hand with the determination and selection of caregiving services is the financial aspect of this stage in life. As part of the holistic approach to caregiving, Salus partners with a group of certified financial planners, who can review your current financial status and the caregiving needs you will need. Then, make recommendations on how to finance the services. There are many ways to address the financial side of caregiving and by discussing these needs with a Salus financial advisor, you will have a complete picture of your caregiving strategy.
