I
provide consultation and coaching to long-distance caregivers by telephone and e-mail.
Coaching sessions are beneficial to caregivers experiencing urgent caregiving difficulties.
I also help caregivers learn more about their care-planning options. My clients find that
once an appropriate caregiving solution is in place, they enjoy increased time and
personal energy, as well as a new perspective for handling the challenges of work,
family, and long-distance caregiving.
"As
an only child, with a frequent travel schedule, I found it increasingly
difficult to meet the needs of an aging parent, with declining
health, 400 miles away. Finding Jim Ferry was a true blessing.
He guided us through several steps of increased care dependence,
located resources, communicated with caregivers and medical personnel,
monitored meds, and always advised when changes were necessary.
His knowledge of government programs and requirements saved substantial
time and money and allowed my mother to live in her own home for
as long as possible. With Jim's caring support, it was like having
another member of the family available, one who could give wise
counsel and trusted advice whenever needed."

Coaching is also available to care professionals who seek professional and personal
growth.
"Jim's
expertise in the geriatric field has helped me greatly in my practice
as a Geriatric Care Manager. Through Jim's guidance and coaching
expertise, I have been able to realize that only I can direct
where I want to be both professionally and in my personal life.
Coaching has enabled me to visualize high standards and worthy
long-term goals, both professionally and personally. With Jim's
help and encouragement, I have already obtained some of my goals.
I realize that if I'm not happy in whatever it is that I am doing
or involved with, only I have the power to change that. He has
helped me to realize that I can, in the future, accomplish much
more than I have ever given myself credit for. Thank you, Jim!"
