You tell them what you're looking for and they sell your info to like 30 facilities who call you at cutthroat speeds to feed upon your sadness like a shark on an injured seal. If all communication was via email, it would have been somewhat manageable.
I found the "service" to be annoying and there was no value added. I won't be using the service again. I consider calls before 9:00am to be abusive.
My husband and I were at a loss on how to find a place for his mother. She needed to be in a place where she could socialize instead of being isolated. On a whim on a Sunday morning, I completed a form on my phone for 'A Place for Mom". Within minutes, I received a phone call from this service and was connected with my advisor! Kellie was a godsend! We established a great connection and set up two places to tour. The resources sent to us were very informative. Kellie kept in contact through the whole experience. So, in about less than two months, my mother in law is settled and very happy. Thus my husband and I are very pleased with the assistance from A Place for Mom.
My mother was falling all too frequently in her home and I knew that I had to do something quickly for her or risk her being seriously injured. I started looking with A Place for Mom, and I needed to find assisted living in the general vicinity of her present home, but not so far away that my sister and I would be inconvenienced as we both live an hour away in opposite directions. I was given a list of three possible facilities in the Lawrence County, IN area and I decided to check out two of them. Both of the recommendations were great, but I realized that Mother needed assistance with bathing and also therapy for strength. I settled my mom into the second facility this week, and all my stress is alleviated due to the great team at Cedar Creek. When she went in, she was ready to stay, the climate was that conducive to her mental and physical health and she felt it there.
I initially connected with A Place for Mom after my mom had fallen twice in two weeks and it was looking like my dad couldn't care for her. Natalie was so credible I giving me advice and setting up the initial visits. My need for placing mom became urgent when my dad also fell and spent the day at the hospital. We also had some difficulties with some of the places. Natalie was the calm in my storm and helped us get mom placed within 4 days. I will always be grateful for her and I highly recommend her and A Place for Mom!
Acute situation led us to expert caring professionals help in incredible ways. Our mom & family are very grateful. Highly recommended
Very helpful and personable. Individualized attention. A Place For Mom doesn't always have resources and information on all local senior housing.
Laura from a Place from Mom was so helpful. She checked in on me often to make sure that I did not need help getting a hold of the places that she suggested. She also made sure once we found a place that we had everything and even contacted the home my mom was moving into. Amazing help!
I am so grateful to Sara S., who provided support and understanding during this difficult time in trying to find a place for my dad. Sara went above and beyond, walked me through the process, provided reassurance, and was able to find a place for my dad.
There is so much to handle with a parent suffering from a debilitating illness, especially in old age. When the social worker recommended A Place for Mom, I didn't know what to expect. After a lengthy, but thorough conversation, APM identified caregiving agencies local to my parents' home. I didn't have to spend additional hours online researching what and who to speak with. We talked to a couple of firms given by APM, interviewed one at the home, and not long after had a caregiver schedule setup within 24 hrs of a crisis period that resulted in surgery and a discharge from the hospital. My stepmother was on the verge of burnout and now has the support she needs.
Everything is perfect. Great experience so far. Feel happiness coming on.
My brother had a stroke in 2021. Since then he's resided in assisted living. He has improved over the years and we now are in the market for a nice independent living facility.
Once the application was filled out Tamara Miller called in 10 minutes. Within 24 hours we had a list of local places within 10 miles of my house.
By the end of the week we had a signed contract with his dream place.
In 2 weeks he was moved.
We appreciate all the help we and the quick response. I would not hesitate to use A Place for Mom again. Tamara was the best!
This was a seamless and easy process. Katherine was responsive and very helpful! Have a great place for our loved one!
After providing parameters and budget Natalie provided the number of Assisted Living homes for me to tour for my husband with dementia and other health issues. Natalie always followed up with me not only providing best matches for our needs but also with continued support through this very emotional time. Place for Mom provided excellent help and guidance I wouldn't hesitate to use it if you were looking for a place for a loved one.
Michelle was extremely helpful throughout my search for a good placement for my husband who developed memory issues! She was easy to work with, responsive and flexible! She stuck with me and was tremendously helpful throughout the process. She was always quick and willing to answer any questions!
Very easy to work with Laura Berg. She gave me several types options for different levels of care. Mom's situation changed so when that happened she was able to give me new options. I'm going with Elmbrook in Bozrah ct. Amazing staff there and go beyond to mank this transition go well. Definitely a 5 star establishment.
Lynn Moore provided excellent service! Would highly recommend Lynn to anyone needing help understanding the options available to senior care.
I was looking for a place to be comfortable and safe as I grow old. A place for mom did a fantastic job giving me help with places in my area. Names of places, phone numbers- everything I needed.
I did not use this service, only dialed by accident looking for assisted living in my area. The person who answered kept asking questions I did not want to answer, only wanted direct line, which your website is very deceiving about.
I had to move my dad quickly and I didn't know where to start. I looked on line and I saw a link to A Place for Mom, since I had heard of them before, I clicked on the link and was matched with my wonderful consultant Jeremy. He listened to my concerns and asked relevant questions, and helped me sort out what kind of facility would be best for my dad. Within about half an hour I had a list of facilities near me and Jeremy had made an appointment for me at one of them. Two days after I first talked to Jeremy I visited several of the places on the list. One of them was a perfect fit for my dad (and me), since they had an opening and it was within our budget, we moved him in ten days after I first made the decision to move him. It's taking me longer to empty out his old home than it did to find the new home and move him! I wouldn't have thought that was possible and indeed it wouldn't have been without Jeremy's help. If you're not sure about contacting them just click on the link. It won't cost you anything (the service is free) and it might make your search a whole lot easier.

Answer: In the Greater Louisville (Kentuckianna) metro area there are several I can recommend you consider based on our tour of recommended facilities in Southern Indiana. As residents of Southern Indiana, just across the river from Louisville, we chose Silvercrest in New Albany Indiana. They offer independent living in freestanding apartments as well as assisted living and also more complete care for those needing it. We also really liked Traditions at Hunters' Station in Sellersburg which has identical options, and Bennett House in Clarksville, which offers assisted living and additional services but does not have independent living. Some of these do have limited Medicaid beds in their nursing facilities.
