About Us

Generational Management Resources specializes in case management for individuals with disabilities, we assist with trust management, guardianship, medical malpractice life care planning, social service benefits applications, property management and attorneys.

Marie has learned that medical or nursing care is not enough to truly heal the ill or properly care for any individual – there must also be a strong spirit of love, attention, smiles, hugs, and sincere care and devotion for an individual, regardless of age, to surpass life’s physical, emotional and environmental challenges.

Marie shares he personal philosophy on elderly care with us, a philosophy she carries into GMR’s care and management of patients of all ages.

As a nurse with many years experience in the care of both pediatric and geriatric patients, I have comforted those that are new to life as well as those that have lived a full life, and I have learned that humans, at all ages, can flourish only when they can experience love and care and spend time doing what they enjoy.

Unfortunately, so many elderly individuals are left alone with only their basic needs attended to, but they require so much more to enjoy their remaining years. They need attention, they need someone to love (such as a companion, a grandchild or a pet), they need hobbies and interests, they need intellectual and emotional stimulation, they need to breathe fresh air outside, they need to stretch and move and walk to maintain flexibility. Physical ailments may limit them but these needs can be met within the parameters of their physical limitations. And as I have experienced, once these higher needs are met many of these physical limitations are no longer as limited as they once were and often times, they even miraculously disappear. The spirit and the mind are God’s gifts to us and only when we feed that spirit can humans truly enjoy their lives, at any age.

It is this philosophy I and my employees carry with us into our practice at Generational Management Resources. I personally evaluate every new case and direct the actions required to improve that individual’s life. I evaluate and assess the individual to determine their medical and physical situation, as daily routines. Does he get outdoors everyday for fresh air? Does he or she need physical therapy to improve mobility? Has she been to the hairdresser lately? (It’s amazing what a manicure and hair styling can do to cheer the spirit.) What does she like to do to pass the time and is she provided with the means to do that? Is she able to garden, or hear music or read books, if that is what she likes? Is she able to use the phone to call family and friends? Do family and friends keep in touch with her? If there is household staff, are they competent? Are they honest and trustworthy? How does he get around medical appointments and other places? Are his legal affairs in order or do we need to get him legal counsel to handle his estate planning?

At GMR, we do not just provide the minimal nursing a person may need. We look to “manage” the life of that individual and ascertain all their needs, no just their medical needs, but also their personal needs. Life is precious at all stages.
