EXPANDING MENTAL HEALTH BENEFITS

• An expansion of access to in-network mental health providers

• Reduced cost sharing for mental healthcare visits

In the past couple years, many employers have expanded their company’s mental health benefits as a show of support for potential jobseekers, employees and their families. The intention is to help promote employee wellbeing through better access and improved benefit levels for those feeling stressed about personal or work-life matters.

Workers seem to appreciate the efforts and are taking advantage of the services. Some of the changes business owners are making include:

• Increasing access to mental health services through methods like telehealth

• The addition or expansion of employee assistance programs for mental health services

• Access to yoga, meditation and mindfulness sessions at the workplace or home

• Providing apps that support wellness, focusing on fitness, sleep and relaxation

By addressing issues like stress and anxiety in a more proactive fashion, employers can reduce or even eliminate costly treatment for conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, and cardiac problems. The small financial investment the employer makes now can often save substantial costs in the future.

The Central Bucks Chamber of Commerce offers its members access to My Benefit Advisor as a solution for employee benefits, including voluntary offerings. For more information about My Benefit Advisor, visit our website at cbcc.mybenefitadvisor.com or contact Christopher Sloane at (610) 684-6933.

AMADA SENIOR CARE was started by a caregiver with a focus on providing the highest quality care! Our founder and first caregiver spoke Spanish; Amada is the Spanish word for Beloved. In 2015, Amada opened in Dresher, Pennsylvania covering Bucks and Montgomery Counties in the Philadelphia suburbs. Matt & Ashley Ushler are proud owners of Amada Senior Care. We had personal experiences with home care that drew us to helping other families. Both of Ashley’s grandmothers needed care. One was local and one was in upstate New York with dementia. Matt’s, grandmother, memaw, was in York, PA. Each grandmother faced different challenges and it was difficult to find the right home care agency for each of them. They started in home care to focus on 3 things

for the families – to make it safe, affordable, and flexible.

We all want our loved ones to be safe. Amada Senior Care takes it very seriously to offer a safe and qualified caregiver. You are having someone come into your home that you don’t know, so our philosophy is that they won’t send someone to your home that we wouldn’t send to our own grandmother. We will be flexible with scheduling care around your loved one and family’s availability. We can help step in where you need us.

Every client will have an individualized plan of care to help them meet their Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) safely and age in place as long as possible. We even help some clients when they transition into an Independent Living facility or Assisted Living facility.

Amada is very proud to serve Veterans and we thank them for their service to our great country! Amada is also a Long-Term Care Insurance expert and can help you maximize the benefit of your LTC Insurance. Amada does work with private pay clients too, and this is where the flexibility is so valuable again. We will work with you at your needs. We do not require you to have any minimum hours per week.

It is important to note again, Amada is a Long-Term Care Insurance Expert. If your premiums are going up, CALL US.

DON’T CANCEL your policy!

Call or text (215) 422-3095 for a FREE Care Needs Consultation. Let the experienced and compassionate team at Amada Senior Care help you with the best possible care. As owner Matt Ushler says, “Let our family care for yours!” Visit AmadaBucksMontgomery.com for more information.
