The program provides families with the appropriate resources and support which ensure quality care for loved ones while providing caregivers peace of mind.
“Athens Community Council on Aging is always trying to be proactive in gaining services that the Northeast Georgia area may need and this is a great asset to the community. Mattee has worked extremely hard and will be one of only two certified Geriatric Care Managers in our area. We are so proud to have her on staff and to be able to see the work that she is doing helping people navigate as they age,” stated Jennie Deese, CEO of Athens Community Council on Aging. She went on to say, “We get calls from children or neighbors with aging adults in their lives and just don’t know which direction to turn. There are so many options and every single person’s needs are different. Mattee helps guide them.”
