Spectrum GoodLife ; helping seniors live better at home
Spectrum GoodLife is a new venture that takes the stress out of everyday living for seniors and their families by offering reliable, responsible solutions that enable elders to live independently and to their fullest, from the comfort of their own homes.
The company was formed by Directors Harin Perera, Marisha Bandaratilaka and Rohan Fernando in response to their personal experiences caring for senior parents and loved ones in Sri Lanka. Frustrated by the lack of quality services for seniors wanting to live at home independently, it was decided to create a new kind of entity – a professionally- managed enterprise that caters to the needs of elders on their own terms, treating them with compassion, respect and empathy, the company said in a media release.
Spectrum GoodLife offers a range of tiered services depending on the level of assistance required, with each tier adding on additional services. They also of f e r standalone services as add-ons to their existing packages. They provide free assessments enabling clients to choose which package suits them best, so that they always have the best possible care. Services include housekeeping, grocery provision, transport, medication manag e m e n t , household maintenance and bill payments, all handled by a dedicated, caring, highly- trained in-house team.
“Each client is assigned his or her own Client Care Manager who is trained in elder care and provides ongoing emotional support and companionship to clients through regular scheduled visits and phone calls, even engaging with clients about books, movies, current affairs, etc. They also manage client requirements including coordinating services, transport and deliveries, maintaining a calendar facilitating everything =-- be it routine follow-ups, pet vaccinations, or AC maintenance,” the company said.
Director of Spectrum GoodLife Rohan Fernando, a senior chartered accountant, said, “At
Spectrum GoodLife, we envision a world where seniors lead fulfilling lives without worrying about stressful everyday activities, while their families can rest assured knowing that their loved ones are getting the best possible care at great value for money.”
