Premier Care Solutions

WHAT CLIENTS HAVE SAID:
 
The silver lining has a name, and her name is Miriam seliktar. .....my husband quickly became a quadraplalegic and then on a respirator for life support...one of the biggest challenges was to find caregivers for 24hour care.....When I first met Miriam, I was still in denial that I could do it myself. Her approach to offering help on the many challenges UI faced was sympathetic and gentle. Yet her caring nature did not obscure the fact that she was very capable, determined woman who understood and cared about the patients and families....as the length of my husband's illness grew and my stamina declined, I encountered not only staffing difficulties but also insurance reimbursement issues....
 
I learned that Miriam's standards of care were high; accepting not only excellence and competence, but compassion as well. As the weeks went by my stress became less and less as I realized that I did not have to do it all alone, Miriam was my safety net and I could take time to care of myself so I could continue on and be there for my family.

When our Grandmother wanted to stay in her home of more than 60 years, Miriam Seliktar helped us keep her there. At first Miriam was just like a special friend to our Grandmother, checking up on her at home, taking her out to lunch, bringing her dinners, helping her with small things around the house she could no longer do on her own. As our Grandmothers needs grew, Miriam was there...she was there when an emergency hospitalization stay became necessary, she looked into drugs that would help, and dealt with the doctors when we could not, she hired a live in nurse when our Grandmother could no longer be on her own. Miriam is professional, compassionate, persistent, and very knowledgeable on Geriatric care and the issues surrounding it. My husband and I, and our Grandmother Adele are certainly lucky to have found her. We would recommend PCS to anyone in need of this type of assistance.
 
If you were able to mold Florence Nightingale, Sigmund Freud and Golda Meir into one person you would have Miriam Seliktar. When my daughter called Miriam for help for ME when my wife was dying she quickly became intimately part of our family helping us all through the last leg of her long journey. Miriam is a compassionate woman who guided us through uncharted waters, got things done and most all cared.

When my father suffered a stroke in June, 2010, I was suddenly overwhelmed by the hospitalization and the expectations of his future care. His life had changed, and so had mine. Miriam Seliktar of Premier Care Solutions came to my rescue. She was able to evaluate the quality of care, find alternative and better hospitals and the best rehabilitation facilities, and the best match for extended care facilities, through her knowledge, persistence and contacts in the field. You could say Miriam moves mountains for you. She provides excellent care-givers, and is immediately attentive to any change in staff to accommodate her client. Miriam is a total health-care package provider. She manages care-giving staff, medication purchase and dispensing, billing issues, Medicare issues, the social well-being of her client-patient, the calm support to her client-family, and a myriad of other issues involved in the health care of a loved one who is failing. She provides expert and hands-on attention necessary so that her client will not fall through the cracks of the "system", and so the family will not be burdened with the time-consuming and stressful effort to meet the needs of a loved one who requires end-of-life or elder-care support.

This is to express my appreciation for what has been done for me most recently. Ms. Seliktar and her family have been residing in my neighborhood in Wynnewood for over twenty years; our acquaintance in the past was casual and friendly, until the time that Ms. Seliktar introduced me to her company: “Premier Care Solutions”. I would highly recommend Miriam to all of my friends who need the kind of personable, reliable, and friendly service her Company offers. I found her not only reliable, personable but compassionate as well. Miriam develops a personal relationship with her clients. I feel that Miriam not only takes care of my home safety issues, but she is looking out for my best interest, with the highest dedication and integrity, I know I can trust her in every aspect. After hiring her services, I feel that I am in good hands, and could trust that she will make all the right decisions for me. In short, Miriam does some of the duties a daughter would do.

PCS helped me with the relocation of my parents who now need extra care. I relied on PCS’s extended research on existing Nursing Homes in the Delaware Valley. Thru this personalized service I understood that the existing care facilities are not going to work out for my parents, since each one of them has a different level of required care, emotionally and physically. It was important to me that we do not separate my parents to different living quarters, in a new found living arrangement. We have reached the conclusion that my parents will have a better quality of care and overall better quality of life, if they are to move to an apartment near my home. PCS facilitated the move to a safe and comfortable apartment for my parents. All aspects of the service were done professionally, intelligently, and we ended up providing better care than otherwise would have been possible. The service was tailored to our specific needs, for that I am thankful and would highly recommend PCS to anyone who needs care and consultation concerning their elder relatives.

“Miriam is an answer to prayer. She knows how to help families dealing with catastrophic illness. Where doctors and insurance companies fall short, Miriam brings reassurance, and answers. She will quickly determine a family's immediate concerns, as well as future needs. She keeps in direct contact with the family as much as or as little as they desire. . . . . . . . For my sister, with no immediate family nearby, and whose husband has been stricken with ALS, Miriam is proving to be an invaluable resource, a friend, and giver of hope.

Miri, You are fantastic. I would definitely recommend your service to anyone needing quality care, invaluable knowledge and compassion. I only wish that I knew you in the beginning of this journey. Since I have begun to take advantage of your expertise and dedication to finding solutions you have helped to ease the stress. I can hardly believe how you have extended yourself to help my husband and I. From getting us a special telephone to helping us sell the handicap van. I remember when you came to actually take the van to the garage for repair - I said to myself - can someone be this good of a person. There are times when it has been impossible to think because of the stress - I have sat back and said what can I do - I have thought that I cannot make another decision but there is Miri - you have thought about solutions - made phone calls, investigated and given us comfort. You are smart, compassionate and determined to provide an excellent service. love to you, are an angel.

Our family was referred to Miriam at a time of great crisis. My husband, a 48 year-old father of two preschool-aged children, had been diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease) in late 2005, and within one year had become ventilator-dependent. The demands of caring for him at home became overwhelming after about one year on the ventilator, despite the strong support of extended family and friends. Miriam entered the picture and literally “rescued” our family from one of its darkest times. She took ownership of all aspects of my husband’s care, and within weeks had interviewed, trained, and organized a matrix of committed caregivers who now provide 24/7 coverage. She took it upon herself to learn all aspects of my husband’s extremely complex medical care, and her commitment to us is evident in the fact that she herself cares for my husband when there is a gap in coverage. Her commitment to quality, compassion and professionalism is evident in every task she performs, and no task is too big or too small. My only regret is that we did not discover Miriam sooner.
