What is IKOR?
IKOR? is different from other businesses that serve the needs of
the elderly and disabled.
- No Direct Care
- Act as Advocates for the Client
- Create & Oversee Client's Medical, Environmental, Legal and
Financial Life Plans
With this approach in mind IKOR? provides a wide range of care
management services; advocacy, guardianship, care planning and
coordination, financial management and routine bill-payment
services. IKOR? is a unique business opportunity allowing motivated
franchise owners to provide a range of badly needed services - with
the support of an established organization -making a positive
impact on the lives of individuals and families in their
communities.
Our in-house team of highly experienced Registered Nurse Patient
Advocates and Personal Needs Coordinators provide custom services.
Each client's Strategic Plan is based on the unique needs of that
individual. The IKOR? Approach helps families manage both
short-term health crises and long-term care issues for seniors and
disabled adults and children.
Our Services
Advocacy in all important life aspects:
Whether medical, environmental, or psychosocial, IKOR takes an
integrated approach and provides an initial assessment,
recommendations and referrals for care options, coordinated
communications among care providers, ongoing quality assurance, and
periodic reports and meetings with all parties involved (client,
family, caregivers, etc.).
Guardian of person or estate:
From complete guardianship to a simple power of attorney,
clients' best interests are always the primary focus when selecting
the right solution for issues that require guardianship or other
legal arrangements.
Together, your dedicated team can analyze and monitor all
important aspects of the client's life, such as configuration of
the living environment, assuring availability of necessary items,
and the coordination of all prior, current, and future financial
demands. The overall benefits you provide - and that make IKOR
different from other service providers - include the fact that
information and guidance are provided by a highly-skilled, single
source, within a cost-conscious platform, and by a neutral party
with whom both client and family members can feel comfortable.
What has IKOR? meant to its clients?
Everything we've done from the day we started IKOR was with the
idea of expanding and offering our important advocacy services
across the country. Franchising just always seemed to be a natural
part of the overall plan. But now we need people like you to
complete the picture. When you join IKOR? as a franchise owner, you
will provide greatly needed advocacy and oversight services to meet
the needs of clients in your own protected territory. But it's
about much more than owning a business - it's about making an
impact and creating a legacy. It's about having a passion and
putting that passion to good use, by becoming a "voice" for the
elderly and disabled. We hope you'll share our vision and
dedication to providing critical advocacy services to people who
need them most.
