Michael Berliant, Owner of Gentle Home Services was the Guest Speaker at the first meeting of the year of the Midwest Unit of the Aging Life Care Professional Association. The topic Michael was asked to address was entitled Changes in Homecare.
As Michael explained, private-duty homecare is going through historic changes nationally as well as in Illinois. Some of the topics he discussed were US Department of Labor and Illinois Department of Labor Law Changes, Minimum Wage Increases, Affordable Care Act and the Misclassification of Homecare Workers.
The meeting was well attended by mostly Geriatric Care Managers from as far away as Peoria, IL. The meeting was held at the Weinberg Community Gidwitz Place for Assisted Living in Deerfield, IL.
