CarePatrol's AlignedCare™ Program: A New Era in Senior Care
In a significant advancement for senior care solutions, CarePatrol has unveiled its AlignedCare™ Value-Based Care (VBC) Certification Program, marking a pivotal shift in how care is delivered to the aging population. With over 200 locations operating across 40 states and in Canada, CarePatrol, a well-established franchise, is set to elevate the standards of care through the introduction of a specialized Ambassador team.
This team, composed of seasoned advisors, is tasked with beta testing the innovative program, allowing them to shape how value-based care integrates within the senior advisory services landscape. The AlignedCare initiative reflects a comprehensive approach to care, emphasizing not just the needs of clients, but also the underlying social factors that influence health outcomes.
A Commitment to Personalized Care
At the heart of the AlignedCare Program lies the commitment to delivering individualized care plans that are deeply informed by five critical components: outcomes, social determinants of health, collaborative care, client insights, and the 8 Dimensions of Wellness. This evidence-informed model facilitates tailored recommendations that truly resonate with each family’s unique circumstances.
Wendy Harris, one of the Ambassadors and the Owner of CarePatrol of Greater Mobile and Northwest Florida, emphasized the importance of this new approach. "We believe that the best outcomes arise from a deep understanding of every client's needs. Our goal is to work collaboratively across the continuum of care," Harris noted.
The Beta Testing Phase
During the beta testing phase, the AlignedCare Ambassadors will incorporate this new model into their current practices. They will provide essential feedback regarding critical aspects like assessment tools, strategic workflows, and tracking outcomes. Effectively, this feedback loop will serve as a foundation for broad implementation across CarePatrol’s network, ensuring that valuable insights shape the final structure of the program.
Becky Bongiovanni, CarePatrol’s co-founder and brand president, shared her excitement about the initiative's early success. She stated, "The enthusiasm shown by our Ambassador team is incredibly encouraging. They are taking on leadership roles that transcend traditional advisory duties. By aligning care recommendations with value-based principles, we are pioneering a more cohesive, measurable, and compassionate model of care for seniors."
Meet the Ambassadors
The current team of AlignedCare Ambassadors includes talented advisors such as Heather Ashby, Jenn Gomer, Gina Gordon, Wendy Harris, Ashley O'Sullivan, Lacie Petsch, Nicholas Wake, and Julie Whitbeck-Lewinski. Each of these professionals plays an indispensable role in bolstering CarePatrol's commitment to enhancing senior care advisory services. Through their combined expertise, they will help foster professional development and drive meaningful community impact.
As this exciting initiative evolves, CarePatrol is set to redefine how senior care is approached, moving away from a one-size-fits-all methodology. The full rollout of the AlignedCare Certification Program is expected later this year, with great anticipation that it will transform the landscape of senior care delivery.
