What is Grayce?

Grayce is a support solution to help families navigate needs for their loved ones.  We provide information, education, guidance, planning, and coordination.

 

Why does Grayce exist?

Grayce exists because you care.  Caring for loved ones is challenging and complicated.  It can be fulfilling while also feeling overwhelming, confusing, and isolating.  There are not enough resources to guide and support families along the way.  We’re here to make the process feel more graceful, to help guide you on your care journey.

 

 

Support

 

Who does Grayce help me to care for?

Grayce is here to help. Whether you’re helping your parent, grandparent, spouse, partner, sibling, other relative, friend, child, or neighbor, we’re here for you.  If they matter to you, they matter to us.

 

I am aging myself, and I’d like help with planning. Can Grayce help me?

Yes, we can help you.

 

Does it matter if I am located in a different place than the person about whom I’m seeking support?

Grayce is a virtual solution.  We can support you across geographies and logistical circumstances.  If needs arise for which you need additional local support, we’ll help support you on identifying local solutions.

 

What does Grayce help with?

Supporting a loved one becomes a significant life role, much like the role of becoming a parent.  Grayce helps you navigate and succeed in this role.  We offer guidance and support, information and education, research, and coordination.

 

Can you give me examples?

• Assess financial needs and identify eligibility for income-based support (Medicare, long-term care plans, estate planning, financial planning, etc.)

• Navigate both current and projected needs of a loved one

• Identify and assess living options including in-home care, assisted living, and long-term care

• Instruct on and coordinate safety modifications to remain at home safely

• Facilitate conversations about a loved one’s wishes and end-of-life preferences

• Provide support for self care and your well-being

 

Does Grayce provide home care services?

Grayce is a virtual support solution.  We can support you to find local home care services.

 

Does Grayce provide legal or financial services?

We can support you to find legal and financial services as needed.

 

How does Grayce’s process work?

The first step is to create a Grayce account.  You will then be matched to a dedicated Grayce Expert, and prompted to schedule your initial intake consult.  During the intake consult, you’ll discuss your circumstances, goals, and needs.  After the consult, your expert will prepare a personalized care plan, which they will share with you.  You can then schedule a follow up consult to discuss the plan and agree on next steps together.  In addition to partnering on your plan, your expert is always available for consults to support you.

 

 

Experts

 

Who helps me? What are their professional credentials?

What if I’m not happy with my expert?
