Help during a stressful time
May 29, 2024

We worked with Olga from A place for Mom, which put me in contact with Yvette Alicea, to place my dad at Seaton Voorhees. Yvette couldn't have been more welcoming, helpful and informative during a rather stressful time. Time was of the essence. He was in within 3 days of touring the place. Thank you.

Finding a place for our man, was going nowhere until I sought help from a place for Mom. It opened up for us places to tour, helped us with decisions, and gave us comfort. Thank you!

My younger brother, who is 60 years old with some physical and medical issues since birth, fell very ill with COVID recently. He quickly deteriorated and developed pneumonia. The only sibling who lives nearby got him admitted to the hospital. But this sibling works full-time and has their own family to take care of. He could not be his brother's 24/7 caregiver after he came home from the hospital.
I live more than 2000 miles away...how can I provide help to my ill brother, now soon to be discharged from the hospital but unable to care for himself yet?
I found A Place for Mom online, called the number, and that same day was connected with an adviser. Within 24 hours the adviser had emailed me with the name of 4 retirement facilities in my brother's city that would accept respite care for a limited time. One of the facilities reached out to me that day with a huge amount of information about their facility, including pricing. We scheduled a tour for my ill brother and several days later upon discharge he entered The Redwoods for 2 weeks of respite care. My brother is steadily recovering but has now decided to retire early. And, he is seriously considering returning to this facility as an independent care resident when he retires!
Turning to A Place for Mom during this family crisis was the best thing we could have done! From more than 2000 miles away I was able to quickly find a wonderful facility for my brother where he could safely recover from serious illness.
My advisor has been very responsive, checking in by phone and email as our family navigates this crisis. I can say the same thing about the retirement facility. It has been such a blessing to have caring, knowledgeable people helping us during this difficult time. This helped to significantly reduce the stress our family has been going through. I would highly recommend A Place for Mom for anyone needing help in handling a loved ones' illness or pending retirement.

A Place for Mom provided lots of support and lots of options when deciding to place my parents in assisted living. Vanessa was very attentive to make sure I had answers to all of my questions and what to do next at each step.

That made a process that can seem overwhelming much easier.

My personal advisor was absolutely fantastic! From fine tuning the list of places that fit my parents criteria to following up constantly, she was a lifesaver! The "MySearch" tool is wonderful, allows you to drill down into the places that are on your list, view their websites and then schedule tours. Each step of this process was so easy. Even when I had to cancel or change dates, my personal advisor was always there to assist! I can't recommend them enough to help you through a difficult process.

I love that we were able to get a variety of listings within our preferred area. We were given options in both the home-style setting and the bigger company-run places.
Our advisor answered questions and gave advice beyond just emailing these listing locations and their contacts.
We were able to find a place for my mother-in-law that the siblings agreed on and that is comfortable and safe for her.

Just in the Nick of Time
May 16, 2024

A dear friend recommended A Place for Mom. She had a wonderful experience years ago with her mom. "It's not just for moms," she told me. That led me to Justin T., my kind-hearted adviser who went straight to work to help my dad. He was genuinely warm and efficient. The first recommendation was a perfect fit and I was grateful my father was in good hands when he passed.
