Agewise is an incredible agency that truly helps advocate for their clients and their clients' family members. They offer a ton of different resources to help loved ones care for family members that are unable to fully care for themselves. Would highly recommend their services and would use again in the future if needed!
I had a very good experience with AgeWise. I am the POA for my uncle, and as he started experiencing mild cognitive impairment, I needed a local agency who could assist him. AgeWise helped with a myriad of needs, practical and social. They assisted with home organization so that he could sell his house. They helped him find an independent living situation that was a great next step for him. They helped find a companion care giver for him. They gave him the security of regular visits, and they gave our family members sound advice in various transitions. Ultimately, they helped prepare him for a move from Kansas City to Chicago, where he is now in memory care near family members. I am so thankful for all of their care and help!
Agewise provides absolutely the most professional, kind and caring resources for our Mother. They visit her and are our other set of eyes and ears in her assisted living situation. Being out of town, they give me great comfort knowing they see her and she loves their visits and interactions. They provide an extra layer of support and have helped us know when we needed to reach out to her care team at the facility with specific questions. They are a integral and valued part of our team and we navigate care for our Mother and her dementia.
When we received the phone call that our loved one had fallen and suffered a stroke, we were stunned. She was alone and 700 miles away. It was a complicated situation, and she needed help. We spent many days with her but could not move her to our city or travel to be with her all the time.We began networking in Kansas City and were told that we needed to investigate Age Wise Advocacy. We found Barb. She is compassionate, caring, and truly acts as a strong advocate. Her nursing background and experience is extremely helpful in navigating the medical challenges. Lee and I look at ourselves frequently and say, "Where would we be without her?" Her communication with us is excellent, she visits our loved one weekly and has those tough conversations with healthcare professionals and our loved one as needed.We are so thankful that she was put in the path of our journey. Most importantly, we value her as a strong member of our care team. Likewise, she has direct conversations with us to guide our interaction with our loved one. Barb Chamblin is such a blessing, and we are thankful for her support each and every day. We honestly don't know where we would be without her.
I have referred to clients to AgeWise now for years, as have many of my colleagues. I am constantly amazed by the professionalism, empathy and knowledge of everyone I have worked with. I can definitely attest that the Courts in Johnson County, and those of us working with the Courts, hold AgeWise in the highest esteem. We are all so fortunate to have them in our community and I can't say enough good things about what they do for families and their clients.
My Agewise Advocate has been a HUGE support over the last 5 years as I have traveled the emotional and frustrating road with my Dad in his LTC life. When I was lost ...she helped me find the way.
Our care manager from Agewise has been a priceless and highly valued part of my Mom’s care for the past two years!Skilled, conscientious and extremely thoughtful!!
We have seen these guys help several different people. They act with so much care and compassion. They are an amazing team and we love what they do. They take great care of seniors at all stage of their lives.
During what has been (so far) the worst time of my life, we relied on Agewise/Dana for guidance, information and support. I think they made the awful situation better with reliable and timely counseling, direction and information. Always a quick call or time for a conference call. Responsive, knowledgeable and compassionate. I do not know how we would have managed without them.
We have been with Agewise for more than 10 years now! They have helped us through many phases of our mother's slow journey with dementia... from offering support when she was in independent living, to helping with the transition to memory care, and now continuing with regular visits and reports to my sister and I who live out of state and are not able to visit our mom as often as we would like. Wonderful, caring people who make a huge difference in our mom's life and in our peace of mind.
The care and compassion that Agewise shows its clientele is amazing. I have the honor of working alongside of them with several of their clients and I am always amazed at their expertise and knowledge of working with the elderly...advocating for them every step of the way! You or your loved ones will definitely benefit from their services.
