The Morning Show airs each Tuesday and Thursday at 8 a.m., and its most recent recorded interviews are subsequently available here as podcasts. I assist in preventing evictions or other circumstances which may lead to moving clients unnecessarily from a familiar environment to a more costly or more restrictive setting due to at-risk behaviors.These Community Conversations are recorded interviews that air during KRFY’s live-broadcast Morning Show. MAINTAINING HOUSING BY PREVENTING EVICTIONS I have long-term experience working with housing for seniors and disabled adults of all income levels throughout the Bay Area, the State of California, and outside of California. I am available to discuss relocation of family members to other areas of the Country where there is low income senior and disabled housing resources available and caring relatives near by who can provide monitoring and support for their family members. I specialize in problem solving for moderate or low income seniors who need daily care and can't afford to hire care at home and cannot afford to go to Board and Care or Assisted Living settings. Due to the AB 241 California Domestic Workers Bill of Rights passed on September 26, 2013, licensed caregiver agencies charge on an average of $950.00 for 24 hour care.ĭue to severe fire-related risks of evacuation and housing loss, the extreme costs of care in Sonoma County related to post fire residential care cost skyrocket and AB 241 causing caregiver cost jumps, more and more seniors are at risk for inadequate care in their homes and lack of appropriate levels of housing to address their increasing needs over time. Many seniors do not have anywhere near the amount of resources necessary for care in their own home as their needs increase over time. Many seniors do not have anywhere near the resources for residential care placement in Sonoma County. Recently I worked with a placement specialist, and we placed an elder woman with moderate dementia and behavior concerns in a Board and Care and the initial cost was $9,000.00 a month.
