Elder Care for Families Separated by Long Distances

In many circumstances, seniors and their family members live hundreds and even thousands of miles apart. When seniors are at their best, communication by phone and video chat can help overcome these distances. However, when an older adult suddenly requires elder care, the physical presence of a caregiver is often mandatory for their safety and personal well-being. If you’re unsure of how to arrange care for a loved one in Jacksonville NC when you live in another city or state, our local care agency is here for you.
