Tigard families are caught between caring for aging parents and the demands of their own work and kids — often while parents continue to insist they’re fine.
When you’re trying to balance work, your own family, and a parent who’s starting to need more help than they’ll admit, having a Westside-based geriatric care manager who can be in their Tigard home today — not next week — changes the entire dynamic.
90% of seniors say they want to age in place. The challenge isn't the desire — it's the execution. Fall risks, medication accuracy, hospital discharge coordination, dementia progression, and the steady accumulation of small medical decisions are too much for most Tigard families to manage alone. As a licensed Occupational Therapist and Aging Life Care Manager®, Melissa Swiontek translates clinical expertise into a real, executable plan for your loved one's next 6, 12, and 24 months.
OT-led home safety assessments in Tigard homes — identifying fall risks, recommending modifications, and reducing the chance of the injury that changes everything.
When a Tigard loved one is hospitalized or facing a sudden decline, we coordinate the transition home — working with doctors, hospitals, and care providers to prevent costly readmissions.
Ongoing, holistic care coordination for Tigard families navigating dementia, complex medical needs, or the steady demands of aging — with a single trusted point of contact.
