Today at my mom’s ALF I saw a flyer that said a company called RIPPL will be there in a few days. It didn’t describe the company but just stated something like “helping to care for you”. The gals at the nurses station said it was a new thing; they didn’t know about it, so I looked it up. Apparently RIPPL does Senior mental health. Has anyone put them in touch w your LO? How good are they?
As an ad copywriter for decades in the medtech sector, the word that is absent from their website is "affordable".
One can find care if one can pay for it. The main problem is paying for it. The most broken part of our system is the cost.
It is basically a geriatric care management company. Who knows how much it costs. I guess if you have to ask, you can't afford it.
It's basically a bunch of rich people who are feeling bruised by their own experience of dementia care (I sympathise), which evidently fell far short of their customer service expectations, and who reckon that with enough venture capital money they can cherry pick geriatricians, psychiatrists, psychologists, behavioural experts and so on to create a workable model of dementia care that will meet the needs of the impending baby boomer cohort.
Good luck to them.
Meanwhile, I should focus on how competent any provider you consider is to do the work now, today.
It looks like a behavioral health company.
