Alder, formerly LifeCare Advocates

Alder, formerly known as LifeCare Advocates, was founded in 1993 by Emily B. Saltz, LICSW, and is recognized as a leader in aging life care on both a local and national level. For over 30 years, the organization has guided more than 5,000 families across Greater Boston through the challenges of aging with compassionate and expert care. Their team consists of experienced Life Care Managers, including seasoned social workers and nurses, who provide both strategic guidance and direct support. This can range from coordinating medical and home care services to conducting home safety assessments, attending appointments, and helping families have important conversations about care. A key aspect of Alder's approach is their deep integration within the local community. They utilize an extensive professional network to connect families with reliable resources and encourage collaboration among different disciplines to ensure comprehensive care. The services offered are highly personalized, with a focus on acting as a vital connection between their clients and the necessary services. This includes evaluating physical and mental health through in-home assessments, assisting in the selection of appropriate care and housing options, and reviewing legal and financial situations with referrals to specialists when needed.
