Our clients benefit from the extensive knowledge of our professional Care Managers. With over 90 years of combined experience working with older adults, we understand the intricacies of local resources, aging processes, family dynamics and more.
The complexities of aging or coping with a disability can be overwhelming. Often our clients come to us with more questions than answers. What is really happening with my loved one’s health? Should my parent remain at home and what services would make that better? How do we pay for assisted living? Are my legal documents all up to date? What should my family do if my siblings are not all in agreement? Our Care Managers provide steps for a clear path forward in areas of well-being including health, family, finance, legal and housing.
At Embrace, we are dedicated to providing exceptional services to our clients. If you are interested in learning more about the services we offer or want to schedule a consultation appointment, we encourage you to contact us today.

Today’s medical system is often overwhelming and confusing for clients and their families Embrace provides knowledgeable and compassionate guides to support you through your healthcare experiences. With the use of specialty physicians who may only focus on a single aspect of your care, it is essential to have an advocate who understands your complete medical history. Unexpected hospitalizations and insufficient discharge planning can add to the stress of an already difficult situation, but our experts who understand the “system” can help.
Clients may be unaware of when and how to utilize beneficial services such as therapy, home health, palliative and hospice care. Our care managers understand these services and will provide specific recommendations. In addition, we understand the complexities of family dynamics that can arise when making medical decisions. Our care managers bring understanding and clarity to family discussions and decision making.
Planning for the future can be a daunting task that many put off. Our Care Managers use empathy and active listening to understand areas of well-being related to health, family, finances, legal and housing. Based on your goals and our years of experience, we create a tailored plan with specific recommendations for a road map to move forward with. If you were to build a house you likely would not do so without a contractor or a blueprint. Similarly, aging well is more likely with the help of an experienced Care Manager and a personalized plan.
Our knowledgeable Care Managers encourage clients to consider long-term outcomes when making present-day decisions. Decisions made in this context reduce avoidable stress and poor outcomes. Additionally, we understand that family members may have different opinions on the best care option for their loved one. We promote open communication, listen to fears, offer objective feedback and help bring families together towards a shared goal.
For many aging adults remaining at home is a priority. However, keeping up with home maintenance, cleaning, insurance, safety, and more, may seem a bit overwhelming. Our care team can help alleviate these stressors and instead focus on the comfort that comes from remaining in your own home.
When facing a chronic health condition such as diabetes, Parkinson’s, cancer, heart failure, etc., our care managers can help. Whether frequent assessments, vital monitoring, symptom management or more is required, our care managers are able to help lessen your stress while living with the condition.
Aging without family can be overwhelming. Embrace is here to help by being your sounding board, an emergency contact and so much more. As a solo ager, it is crucial to plan for the future while still independent and functioning well. We offer flexible support and guidance to help you prepare for the aging journey.
Our care managers take the time to get to know you, your preferences and your goals thus enabling us to be your voice when you are no longer able. Knowing that you are not alone can provide better clarity and peace of mind as you navigate this journey.
As an aging adult, it is natural to want reassurance that your goals, preferences and beliefs will be respected even if you are unable to communicate them yourself. Legal documents naming an individual to act in this role are required in Wisconsin. While some aging adults have a family member or friend who can act in this role, others may not know who to turn to.
Embrace is here to help.
Our experienced Care Managers are able to fill this role when named
as health care and/or fiscal agents. Our care managers prioritize getting to know you, your goals/beliefs, and your unique needs. This enables us to effectively advocate for you when you are no longer able to for yourself. You can rest assured that our protocols maintain professional ethics and standards of practice, providing you peace of mind.
Our Care Managers are a bit like the “wind beneath your wings”, guiding you through life’s transitions whether it is after a hospital visit, short-term rehabilitation stay, or a relocation from your home. We provide decision-making support and a thorough exploration of appropriate referrals to ensure a seamless transition. From coordinating the move to guaranteeing a smooth settling-in process, we take care of every aspect.
If your loved one is showing signs of cognitive issues (thinking, memory, judgement, etc.) or already has a related diagnosis (Alzheimer’s, dementia, Lewy Body, etc.), it is understandable to feel unprepared for what is ahead. Our team, highly trained in dementia care, is here to help. We truly believe education is the best tool to help family members cope
with their loved one’s changes.
By learning why your loved one is acting the way he/she does, as well as how to communicate and respond to him/her, we can find opportunities for meaningful engagement and even enjoyment. Our Care Managers will walk along this seemingly daunting path with you, providing recommendations related to care, solutions associated with “behaviors”, caregiver burnout prevention, general support, and more.
