An educational, supportive and coaching experience
November 12, 2024

I received information along with support along the way from obtaining the first steps, making hard decisions, choosing a place and finally finding and moving mom into an environment where she will thrive.
Considerations were made regarding financial issues, my mom's needs, along with what she wants in order to select the best place for her and her family.
The personal guidance, understanding and follow up communication made moving my mom go very smoothly.

Finding my place
November 11, 2024

When I first begin looking at alternative places to live, I had no idea of we here to find information. I knew I needed to downsize because I was tired of keeping up with a three bedroom house.
I wasn't ready for a nursing home so what else was there? Well there was independent living and the more I researched the more I knew this was for me. I am now living at Palmilla senior living with my dog and it is perfect.

Our overall experience with a place for mom has been positive. The individual assisting us with finding a location that best suited my mother-in-law was extremely helpful. She listened to our needs and did an excellent job in focusing our search to only those facilities that would suit her needs. I am though overwhelmed with emails, Sometimes up to three a day from a place for mom. This is too much outreach from the organization. Once maybe twice a week would seem to be sufficient to provide me with any updated information or reminders.

From the initial call, I felt so cared for and that I had someone who would help me with the process of moving my parents into assisted living. I received some great recommendations without any presure to choose any particular place or any place. I was contacted at least once a week by a caring, personable agent. She rejoiced with me as I finally chose a place and again as my parents made the move. It was a long process and I felt that I had a friend who cared about my parents and family and only wanted the best for all.

A Place for Mom is Always There
November 8, 2024

I have been involved with Christy Bitts for about 10 years. She helped me find a place for my mom in 2014 which worked out very well. Then in 2021 a good friend retired and needed a good place to move. Christy found the most perfect place for him and it worked out so well. Then when his status changed this recently Christy was there again to help us find another perfect place for him. I have been very satisfied with all her help and support all these years.

Quick response, lots of help
November 7, 2024

As soon as I completed the application and hit submit, I received a phone call from an agent, who then transferred me to my case manager. She did all the work for me, selecting facilities that seemed to meet our needs. She checked in on me almost every day at first.

A light for hope

Wendy Sousa was immediately on the phone helping us find a place for mom. She had knowledge of the area and options. She was central point of contact which made it easier to coordinate visits to different places for mom. Very pleasant and helpful.

Caring

Dana was very helpful and knowledgeable and I truly felt like she cared, being long-distance. I would've had a lot of work to find someone for my aunt. Dana made it easy.

Moving my Dad from out of state quickly
November 5, 2024

Becoming the parent to your parent is not easy. Especially when your parent is living 12 hours away. My father was hospitalized and I quickly learned that he would not be able to live alone anymore. Once the hospital started talking about discharge and where he would be able to go and receive 24 hour a day care I was instantly overwhelmed. Once I filled out the questionnaire from A Place for Mom it was like things quickly started falling into place.

Brooke called and listen to what my mother needed and started setting up appointments to tour retirement/ independent facilities. She was quick and efficient and I was able to settle on the Landing of Athens. My mother will be moving in next month.

They made everything so easy.
November 3, 2024

Stephanie, our advisor, has been super helpful. I started my research on my own, trying to find a place for my parents. The information was overwhelming, and calling different places wasted so much of my time but didn't get anywhere. I clicked on the link to A place for mom. They connected me with my local advisor. Stephanie listened to me and asked a lot of questions I had never thought about. Then she recommended a few places and arranged the visits. My parents just moved in to an assisted living facility. They fell in love with that place when I first took them there. Now they have more social life and enjoy all the activities.
I'm so thankful that I made that phone call to A Place for Mom.
Thank you Stephanie.
