Send Me An Angel(TM) Pairs Senior Citizens With Their Peers in Alternative Care

New program provides concierges companionship that goes beyond caretaking

SAN FRANCISCO, April 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Send Me An Angel(TM) Inc., a new
company that provides individualized care services customized for ailing
parents and grandparents today announced it will launch its most innovative
service for providing care to senior citizens. The new service will offer
concierges who will provide engaging one-on-one experiences for seniors on an
ongoing basis. Additionally, the concierges will facilitate helping their
clients participate in special occasions, which under normal circumstance they
wouldn't be able to do.
"Our objective is to be an adjunct to the regular care options that
already exist for ailing seniors: we go beyond care. Our clients will be
paired with their own peers or people with similar backgrounds and experiences
who have a desire and the sensitivity to spend quality time with seniors who
are withdrawing because of their physical maladies. Our concierges are not
just hourly workers who look at this as a job they are true professionals,
focused on creating experiences that will become the highlight of our client's
day," said Saunders, CEO of Send Me an Angel, Inc.
To celebrate the launch of Send Me An Angel(TM) Sunrise Senior Services
Living will hold a reception at their community on Saturday, April 12th from
1:30 to 3:30 PM in the afternoon at 2175 Ygnacio Valley Rd., Walnut Creek, CA
94998. Saunder's will share her story and that of Send Me an Angel(TM) in
person. Hors d'oeuvres and wine will be served in an atmosphere of healing,
gratitude and celebration.
Saunders' journey and the founding of Send Me An Angel(TM) were personal.
It began when her mother started experiencing fainting spells. The rapid
decline in her health was overwhelming. "One day I dropped her off after a
busy day of shopping, and the next day, she was lost in her own garage, having
trouble finding her way to the stairs. Soon she was spending all her time in
her bedroom, her health and vitality started crumbling before me. I was
determined to rescue my mother, normally as busy self reliant go getter from
the misery of what had become a lonely existence. I was determined she would
not become a prisoner in her own home. In fact, we designed Send Me An
Angel(TM) to work with very ill people, people suffering from dementia or
Alzheimer's, like my mother, but also for older people who are just tired,
suffering from milder maladies, simply depressed or just basically alone."
"In all my fifteen years now of long term care experience, especially in
my involvement as activities and care director, I always looked for something
new, something that would turn the tables on the conventional aging
experience," said Pepper Bell, director of Sunrise Senior Living. "Alexandra
Saunders' Send Me An Angel(TM) was like being thirsty and getting a little,
unexpected shower. We wanted to be part of the launch of this amazing
project."
"What makes us unique is that our concierges are educated professionals
whose background, education and interests matches our client's," said
Saunders. "Our services are relationship, not hourly, based. Our strategy is
to enable our clients to stay connected with their family and friends,
irrespective of the distance or physical challenges. All of the minutiae are
arranged on behalf of the clients and their adult children, keeping at the
forefront the quality of the experience," Saunders added.
