GlenCare at The Glenview: Home Care Services For Every Need

In recent years, scammers have increasingly targeted seniors, preying on their trust and vulnerability to perpetrate fraudulent schemes. According to a report by the FBI, Baby Boomers alone were scammed out of more than $3.4 billion in 2023, with losses from reported scams surging by 11% from the previous year. With imposter scams on the rise, it's essential for seniors to be vigilant and informed to protect themselves from falling victim to these schemes.Imposter scams often involve criminals impersonating trusted figures, such as relationship managers or financial advisors, and setting up fraudulent websites to deceive victims. To avoid falling victim to these scams, it's crucial to recognize the warning signs, including:Unexpected phone calls or emails requesting personal information or payments.Phone calls stating you have missed Jury Duty and have to pay a fine or you will be arrested. Urgent requests to fill out forms or provide sensitive information.Poor website design quality, grammatical errors, or misspellings on fraudulent websites.Website domains that use the name of the relationship manager rather than a reputable firm. To protect themselves from imposter scams follow these best practices:Verify all anomalous communications or requests for payments by double-checking the sender information and independently confirming the source using verified contact information.Do not open emails that do not look normal - it could be a phishing email which could put a virus on your computer. Never rely solely on caller ID to determine the legitimacy of a caller. Let an unknown caller go to voicemail. Refrain from sending payments or sensitive information without independently verifying the identity of the recipient.Avoid giving out sensitive information, such as account numbers, over the phone or through a website unless certain of the recipient's identity.Cut off contact with anyone suspected of impersonating a professional and report the incident to authorities.Never give cash to a vendor, Zelle payments or meet them in a common area. Additionally, you can decrease any chances of falling victim to imposter scams by proactively establishing mutually understood defense measures with professional contacts.By remaining vigilant and informed, seniors can protect themselves from falling victim to imposter scams and safeguard their financial well-being. Education and awareness are key to empowering seniors to recognize and avoid fraudulent schemes targeting them.

(FL)Our family used SKR for my moms care for almost 5 years until her death at age 97 in July,2018. In the beginning we only needed assistance with a few daily tasks for just a few hours a week. But over time our requirements gradually increased until mom needed full time round the clock care since she had lost her vision and a good deal of her mobility. We never, ever, thought about using a different agency. SKR addressed each challenge as it arose. The team did a superb job of caring for mom- they worked so well with each other and communicated daily with staff at Atria and also with the family. They also did a great job of anticipating upcoming requirements so that we could be prepared to meet moms needs as she aged. All of the caretakers were highly skilled and so engaged with mom- they were her pals! and they became part of the family as well. (PA)My mom continues to be delighted with our caregiver and we feel so lucky to have her. (PA)On behalf of my entire family, I cant tell you how grateful we are for the support you gave us during my dads final months.

I could not have done everything she and her team did from 1500 miles away.  Her nursing team is top notch. I would recommend SKR whole heartedly. (FL)Thanks for your help. Your staff is excellent. It was a great relief to know Mom had assistance. Having the aides also served as a very positive introduction to having a live-in aide. (PA)My mother has advanced dementia, and yet her quality of life is amazing because of the exceptional care and love she receives from her aide. SKR has an incredible team of caregivers I dont know how I could manage without them. (PA)We have been utilizing SKRs services for over nine months for my father whose health is deteriorating. SKR allowed us to try multiple caregivers until we found ones who best met our needs and satisfied my father. We now have a team in place that is excellent and addresses my fathers needs without being intrusive. The administrative staff is proactive, not just reactive. (PA) Papal week was an exciting time at the Atria Senior Living facility in Philadelphia. The checkpoint was right outside the building and the crowds were enormous. SKRs ability to manage through the staffing, transportation and scheduling challenges were noteworthy. It turned out to be a very fun weekend! (PA)Absolutely fantastic!! Susan and the SKR Team were responsive, professional and went out of their way to meet our needs.
