LifeCare Offers a Wealth of Holiday Help—from Referrals to Timely Information to Discounts and Beyond!

The holidays bring celebrations and family togetherness. But they also bring a variety of unique challenges to your people—challenges that can seriously affect your business:

Monique, your marketing manager, spent Thanksgiving with her family and learned that her father's health is failing. She's now spending an hour or more every work day on the phone with her siblings, trying to figure out the best care arrangements for her father.

David, a line worker in your busiest production facility, has a baby daughter on the way. Frankly, David's excited—but he's worried about the cost of the all of the purchases that he and his wife are going to have to make (a crib, clothes, toys, etc.).

Myles, one of your customer service reps, has gained 10 pounds from all of his holiday partying. He's now spending half the workday surfing the web in search of fitness programs and nutrition advice.

Stacy, your CFO, is … well … budget-conscious, to say the least. She's saved your company millions but now she's buying holiday gifts for nine nieces and nephews. That's going to take some seriously extended lunch breaks, as she searches all over town for the best prices.

Need Holiday Promotions? We Can Help!

The holidays are an ideal time to remind your employees about the many benefits of LifeCare. Whether you'd like to distribute a few of our creative and attention-getting promotional materials (posters, payroll inserts, table tents, flyers, e-mail reminders, etc.) or wish to create a holiday-themed piece specifically for your employees, your account manager will be happy to help you design an effective marketing campaign. So don't hesitate to call!

Fortunately, LifeCare has convenient solutions for all of these needs:

Help for Monique—Personalized Elder Care Assistance: Monique contacts LifeCare and within minutes receives an online package of educational materials, including LifeCare's guides on assessing a loved one's needs, understanding care options, and talking to elders about care needs. She also receives personalized referrals to home health care facilities and other local elder care resources in her father's area. Monique and her siblings discuss their options with a LifeCare specialist and arrange for a home health care aide to check on their father several times a week. Confident that her father is being well cared for, Monique can now focus on her job.

Help for David—Comprehensive Educational Materials: David logs onto the LifeCare web site and quickly finds A LifeCare Guide: Baby Products And Equipment, a comprehensive checklist for purchasing nursery furniture, bassinets, cradles, carriers, high chairs, strollers, infant toys and other supplies. He also comes across the LifeCare guide, Choosing Age-Appropriate Toys: Birth To Three Years. Now he knows exactly what to buy his daughter. And thanks to the LifeCare Discount Center, he also gets great deals on everything he needs!

Help for Myles—Referrals to Fitness Centers and Online Tools: Committed to losing weight, Myles calls LifeCare to request referrals to fitness clubs within five miles of his home. His LifeCare specialist also reminds him about all of the helpful nutritional information available on the LifeCare web site. Myles not only finds the perfect place to workout but he also participates in an online seminar that provides strategies for healthy meal planning. He still can't say no to a juicy turkey—but at least he knows where to go for help after indulging during the holidays.

Help for Stacy—LifeCare's Online Discount Center: Always in search of a deal, Stacy logs onto the LifeCare Discount Center, where she can find special offers on a wide range of holiday related items including computers and electronics, jewelry, toys and educational games. Within minutes finds perfect gifts for her nieces and nephews—all at discounted prices.
