Elder Care Coordinator

About the Role

Anderson Elder Law is seeking an experienced aging professional to join our interdisciplinary Elder Law and Life Care Planning team in Media, Pennsylvania. This is not traditional case management. Our Elder Care Coordinators work alongside elder law attorneys to help older adults and families navigate complicated decisions involving care, housing, Medicare, public benefits, long‑term care, family dynamics and transitions across the continuum of care. The relationship does not end when the immediate crisis passes: our ECCs remain involved as circumstances change and the family’s plan evolves.

Responsibilities

• Assess changing care needs, risks, support systems and living options.
• Help families evaluate and implement home care, senior living, rehabilitation, skilled nursing, memory care and hospice options.
• Advocate with healthcare providers, facilities and care communities.
• Participate in care conferences and difficult family decision‑making.
• Help clients understand Medicare coverage issues, Part D/prescription concerns and available public‑benefit resources.
• Identify Medicaid, Veterans‑benefit and related planning issues and coordinate them with our legal team.
• Support family caregivers and surrogate decision‑makers.
• Maintain an ongoing relationship with clients as needs and circumstances change.
• Build productive relationships with aging‑services and healthcare professionals in the community.

Qualifications

• At least three years of substantive professional experience with older adults and families; five or more years is strongly preferred.
• Experience in geriatric care management, social work, nursing‑home administration, senior living, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, hospice, community aging services or a related field.
• Strong knowledge of the continuum of care and how families actually navigate it.
• Excellent assessment, problem‑solving, advocacy and communication skills.
• Strong organization, documentation and follow‑through.
• Ability to work independently in the community while collaborating closely with attorneys and other professionals.
• Working knowledge of Medicare and familiarity with Medicaid or other public benefits affecting older adults.
• Local travel is required.

Why Anderson Elder Law

• Longitudinal relationships with clients and families rather than one episode of care.
• Sophisticated, interdisciplinary work with experienced elder law professionals.
• Opportunity to use judgment and professional expertise, not simply process referrals.
• Meaningful interaction with providers, senior‑living communities and professional referral sources.
• A growing practice committed to innovation, technology and high‑quality client service.

Benefits

Comprehensive employee benefits package.
