I support both the family caregiver and their loved one
Karen Campbell’s Unique Approach to Aging in place
As the founder of My Age In Place Advocate, I understand that caregiving is not a “one-size-fits-all” journey. What sets me apart is how I work not only for seniors, but also alongside the caregivers who support them.
When working with caregivers of a senior loved one, I focused on:
- Relieving overwhelm: Many adult children feel unprepared to navigate healthcare systems, home safety, or care transitions. I create clear, step-by-step plans so families know what to expect.
- Bridging communication: I act as a neutral advocate between seniors, families, and medical professionals to reduce conflict and ensure everyone’s voice is heard.
- Practical solutions: From home modifications to care coordination, I emphasize realistic strategies tailored to the family’s needs and budget.
When working with caregivers themselves, I take a more holistic approach:
- Acknowledging the caregiver’s role: I recognize the stress, guilt, and exhaustion that caregivers often face and provide emotional support alongside planning.
- Empowering with resources: Caregivers are connected with local services, respite opportunities, and community programs to ensure they are not carrying the burden alone.
- Encouraging self-care: I remind caregivers that they can only provide quality care if they are also caring for themselves, and she helps them build that balance into their routines.
In short, my approach is unique because I advocate for the whole caregiving system—not just the senior, and not just the caregiver, but the well-being of both. By doing so, I ensure families can age in place with confidence, safety, and peace of mind.
At My Age In Place Advocate, the journey begins with a free 15-minute consultation—a simple yet powerful first step toward creating peace of mind for seniors and their families.
As the founder, I understand that navigating the healthcare system, community resources, and the many decisions that come with aging can feel overwhelming. That’s why my role is to simplify, guide, and advocate every step of the way.
✅ Navigating the Healthcare System
I help seniors and family caregivers understand medical instructions, communicate effectively with providers, and prepare for appointments so that care is coordinated and nothing gets overlooked.
✅ Connecting with Resources
From local support services to in-home care, transportation, and safety planning, I provide families with access to the right resources tailored to their unique needs.
✅ Managing Costs
Aging in place should be both safe and sustainable. I guide families through practical ways to manage costs—whether by evaluating options, prioritizing needs, or identifying community programs that reduce financial stress.
✅ Guiding Next Steps
After the consultation, families leave with clear recommendations and a step-by-step path forward, so they can make confident decisions without feeling alone in the process.
At My Age In Place Advocate, my mission is to ensure that seniors can remain safe, comfortable, and independent at home—while giving caregivers the support and reassurance they deserve.
