For Attorneys, Fiduciaries, Guardians, and Trustees
A nurse care manager your clients can trust, and you can rely on
When a client’s situation turns on their health and care, you need a clinical partner you can count on. Our care management is led by a registered nurse, and we work for your client, and no one else.
One point of contact
Led by a board-certified gerontological nurse
In your client’s corner
For Elder Law and Estate Attorneys
Legal work built on what is actually happening
Our regular visits and written recommendations give you your client’s real condition, not the family’s account of it, so the next steps you take to the court are well founded.
What regular visits show
Memory as it presents day to day
Who is making decisions
Signs of self-neglect or undue influence
Safety risks at home
We observe and document. Determinations stay with you and the court.
Planning that matches the client
A clinical plan of care you can use for expense planning, directives, and trusts, and for the yearly reviews and updates the court asks for.
A neutral third party
When family members disagree, or their account of things cannot be relied on, we give you an independent clinical view of what your client actually needs.
Reports you can use
Dated, factual reports on visits, changes, and our recommendations, written knowing a judge may read them. Our internal clinical notes are released only under subpoena.
For Professional Guardians and Fiduciaries
A nurse on the ground between your visits
We see your client regularly in Pierce, Kitsap, and North Thurston Counties and tell you what you need to know.
Local eyes and ears
Regular visits at home or in a facility, so small changes get caught before they turn into a 2 a.m. call.
A nurse in the room
At appointments, in the hospital, and on the phone with providers, asking what a chart review cannot.
Short, objective reports
What changed, what we did, what to watch, and what we recommend planning for next, written for a fiduciary file.
Quality of life, tracked too
We watch comfort and dignity as closely as medications. If your client is safe but unhappy, we will tell you.
Why a Nurse Matters
Why a nurse changes what is possible
Most care managers come from social work. Amby Bowen is a registered nurse, board certified in gerontological nursing, and a certified case manager, with more than twenty years of clinical experience.
01
She assesses conditions directly
She evaluates conditions and medications herself, so you are not relying on secondhand accounts of what the doctor said.
02
She reads the medical record herself
Records, test results, and medication lists make sense to her, and she can explain them to you, your client, and the court in everyday terms.
03
Physicians respond to a nurse
Hospitals and physicians treat a nurse as a peer, so calls get returned and discharge plans can be challenged.
What partners say
"No matter what we reach out about, Ambient Aging is responsive, willing to help, and genuinely cares about finding a solution. Knowing that the families I refer will be treated with kindness, patience, and genuine care means a lot to me."
