This includes coordinating medical services, making home visits, identifying legal and financial resources, advocating for elders, and providing reassurance and support to families who can be overwhelmed with caregiving or managing the care of a loved one from a distance. We develop a Care Plan with a thorough assessment of needs, including a realistic evaluation of the elder’s functioning within their environment, and an understanding of their physical, cognitive, financial, and social well-being, along with information from key providers. This Care Plan addresses both short- and long-term goals, and recommendations are made for services that will assist the elder in reaching those goals. Case Management Professionals will then arrange and coordinate all needed services in the home, community, or care facility, and monitor them on an ongoing basis. Family contacts and consultation continue as needed to provide a reliable link to local or long-distance caregivers. |

Integrated Life Services, LLC
Abby Cobb
P.O. Box 283
Forestdale, MA 02644

We provide comprehensive elder care management, advocacy, and hands-on coordination for individuals and families who need more than a referral list—they need a steady, knowledgeable partner they can trust. Services are offered on a private-pay basis and, in appropriate circumstances, through long-term care insurance as well as Medicare and Medicaid-covered services.
Integrated Life Services is led by licensed social workers with more than 30 years of combined experience in skilled nursing and post-acute care settings. This background brings a deep understanding of healthcare systems, regulatory processes, and care coordination practices, allowing us to guide families through complex situations with clarity, credibility, and practical insight. Our role is supportive and advocacy-focused rather than direct medical care.
We help families make sense of a fragmented healthcare and aging services system, coordinating across hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, assisted living communities, and home-based settings. Our services include care transitions, long-term planning, ongoing oversight, and clear communication with clients, providers and families.
Integrated Life Services also provides mobile notary services, offering convenient, reliable support for healthcare directives, estate planning documents, and other time-sensitive legal needs. In addition, we coordinate psychiatric and primary care support in conjunction with established medical providers, helping ensure continuity for individuals with complex medical and mental health needs without replacing their existing care teams.
Our mission is to bring steadiness, perspective, and compassionate expertise to moments that can otherwise feel overwhelming, ensuring families are never left to navigate care alone. |
