A Place For Mom Saves Me Time
October 23, 2024

We were faced with finding a assisted living place for my friend. Not knowing where to turn, an add appeared for A Place For Mom. They gave us many choices from which to choose, making our selection much easier...we didn't have a good idea of where to turn. They kept on top of our search, letting us make a final decision that worked out best for our friend.

I needed to find a place for my brother to go after he was discharged from the hospital. The gal I talked to listened to my situation and within about an hour I had multiple locations to review & she even set the appointments for me. She addressed all my questions & followed up several times to make sure everything was going well.

My advisor Mandy is extremely competent and professional, yet she brings personal and caring touches into play. Working with her is like having a trusted friend who happens to have great resources at her disposal.
During my search for an Independent Living community for my mom, she understood that I needed time to do interviews and take tours of the different communities.She called or texted me frequently to get our impressions, but was never pesky or intrusive.
Please take advantage of this valuable, caring and trustworthy group of advisors! Read the wonderful tutorials, and perhaps sign up for the weekly emails.Their published works are easy to read and provide information on all the considerations and phases of elderly life and residential communities in your area. They truly care and want you and your loved one to be content.

Caring, Concerned, Compassionate
October 21, 2024

I am very pleased with the advice I have received from A Place for Mom. Karen Marlatt, Senior Living Advisor, kept in contact with me while I was searching for an assisted living facility. She had excellent advice and was very caring in every conversation I had with her - not just in regard to my MIL, but always extended encouragement to me, too.

Overall Wonderful Experience
October 21, 2024

I loved working with A Place for Mom. They respected me and my budget. They were polite, professional and understanding. Most importantly they let go at my own pace. I never felt rushed and respected my decisions to take a breather from time to time. They would periodically check in on me and resumed the search when I was ready.

Excellent experience
October 21, 2024

After 3yrs of sharing care of my 98yr old mom with two sisters, we decided it was time to stop shuffling her around and get her a place of her own. I contacted A Place for Mom and they immediately responded with recommendations for places to tour. We did and found an ideal and very affordable independent living facility only 5min from my home! Move-in day is a week away and everyone...especially mom...is excited about it! Thanks Mandy and the experts at A Place for Mom!

Excellent Service and Resource
October 21, 2024

I worked with Annelle and she did an excellent job. I knew nothing about the process of finding a place for my mom to live. Annelle talked me through the process and re-assured me that everything would work out. She found places that were within our budget and scheduled all the tours. We picked a place from the list and she is all set to move in. I highly recommend using this service, especially since it is free.

I'm still able to think for myself so I didn't require a lot of assistance. I have chosen The Ackerly at Reed's Crossing.

Great resource
October 17, 2024

We weren't happy with my mother's current living situation. "A place for mom" was recommended to me by a friend who had a great experience with them placing their mother last year from a big memory care facility to a private home care- so I called and spoke with Mary. She listened to my concerns and suggested 2 places to visit that she thought would be great fits for my mother. After 2 visits we decided on a place that Mary recommended and we are very happy with the choice. Mary also continued to follow up a few times to help with questions and any concerns. Great referral!

When faced with a need to quickly move my mother to a new assisted living setting I came across "A Place for Mom" online and entered my contact information. I quickly received a call back and was transferred to an advisor in the geographic area of interest. After discussing our care and financial situation, the advisor emailed me a list of seven potential facilities that same morning. Using that list and "A Place for Mom's" scheduling tool, my brother was able to schedule site visits promptly with ongoing follow up by our advisor and the involved sssisted living facilities. We ended up selecting and moving our mother into the facility, which was the top recommendation by our advisor. So far the choice has worked out extremely well.
