8.22.2003 Caregiver Directory
hits new highs
The National
Caregiver Directory has hit all expectations and continues to
grow according to SeniorMag.com
web stats.
Over 30,000 searches per month
are performed looking for senior caregivers and the pattern
continues to grow. Adult family caregivers are looking for
professional services to fill this growing need and it's not easy
for local providers to make contact with seniors' adult children
who don't live nearby, about 70% according to recent surveys in
this target market. Even those that live nearby often don't
even know what to look under. Yellow pages don't carry this
category yet and that often leaves homecare providers to list
under home health which isn't even an accurate description.
The Directory
fills this need both for local searchers as well as those that
don't live near their parents.
3.25.2003 SeniorMag Launches
New Section
Family caregivers have always
had a problem connecting with remote businesses to take care of
senior parents in their homes.
SeniorMag helps solve this
problem with the National Directory of Home Care
Providers,
listing companies that provide personal and health related
services to seniors at home. Prior to this, no such
directory exists on the web where more than 60% of family
caregivers must go to find services when their parents don't live
in the same town.
Conversely, most home care
providers are small companies that can only afford to get the word
out locally at most. SeniorMag intends to keep the pricing
very reasonable for these companies and provide long-term value to
both our readers and Home Care companies.
7.15.2002 SeniorMag Legal
Corner Launch
Due to high demand, from
readers, SeniorMag officially launches Legal Corner, a section
dedicated solely to the legal needs of seniors and
caregivers. SeniorMag welcomes it's over 100 Charter Sponsors and
thanks them for their support.
We at SeniorMag believe that
seniors have many similar but other very unique legal needs and
concerns. It is the intention of SeniorMag to take some of
the mystery out of the legal process, facilitate communication
between the legal profession and seniors and caregivers, and
develop a high level of awareness of those needs within the community.
