Culturally Sensitive Senior Care Solutions: Age Better In Madison, WI
Culturally sensitive senior care is a must in our modern global world, but many Madison seniors are still missing out.
“Having that kind of care means that a person can communicate more effectively with the people taking care of them,” says Lisa Cooper, founder and director of the John Hopkins Center for Health Equity (Nania, 2023). “They feel more that they are a partner in their care, and they feel that they can trust that people have their best interests at heart.”
Multiple studies now show that the bond that forms through culturally sensitive senior care translates to better treatment and aging outcomes. For example, according to research by the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), culturally sensitive senior care improves:
- Seniors’ willingness to try preventative recommendations, like diet and exercise
- Seniors’ adherence to medication schedules
- Patient-provider communications, as seniors feel more trust and greater willingness to share with a healthcare professional who respects their beliefs and understands their background
- Self-reported satisfaction with senior care and health care services
- Self-reported mental and emotional well-being
In light of this growing body of research highlighting its benefits, and the thousands of glowing testimonials we’ve received from Madison families, we’re proud to offer inclusive senior care solutions for Wisconsin families, tailoring each plan to our clients’ specific cultural, physical, mental, and financial needs, and going the extra mile during the caregiver matchmaking process to ensure everyone is happy.
And that’s not all. We also help our clients navigate health care channels to find inclusive providers, so they can reap the rewards of culturally sensitive care in any setting. To that end, our senior care teams can:
