SUGGESTION
June 19, 2018

PLACE FOR MOM SOUNDS SO IMPERSONAL
HOW ABOUT "MOM'S NEW HOME"
OR MOM'S SECOND HOME.
WOULDN'T MOM FEEL BETTER THAT WAY, SO SHE COULD STILL THINK ABOUT LEAVING HER (OLD) HOME?

I an a business that has listed my company with A Place For Mom. Some of you have hit the head on the nail with your comments. For Example:
1. No one from Aplaceformom has ever come to view my facility. They have no Idea about my place other than what I have on my website.
2. If you get information from another source such as, the Department of Aging, Office of Health Care Quality, the representatives does not get commission for you and although you are listed on their site, they may have sent you leads, they will tell you lies about the business in an effort to steer you away from them. Especially Ms. Dorfman. She has done this to me and another owner. She told a prospect that I was poorly raked and when I called her on int and asked her where, as I was a very new business, she stated she did not see my business on a bad site and attempted to skipped the subject. I asked her why she would attempt to harm my business in that way and she attempted to divert me by stating "she would love to see my facility." I reported her only to find out at a networking meeting, she did the same thing to another facility and is still there. So on some level, the executive must accept this type of behavior.
3. They do not take the information from the customer and try to line it up with the business. Thus, it makes you and the client waste time if they are looking for a place that is in a 1800 to 2500 range and you are at 3000 - 5000 range. It puts you in a bad position especially when you want to help everyone.
4. They have the opportunity to be a blessing to others, I contacted a potential client sent to me and he was not looking for a facility, he was looking for someone to live-in with his dad. He was so sick of the calls and all I could do was apologize.

I have worked with some awesome representatives and thus the reason I have not asked that my facility be removed. But you must be aware as APlaceForMom is not giving you the full picture. I hope this review helps someone.

They make money off of you. They don't care where you are placed, only that they get a commission. Shame on you Joan London.

This is not a helpful service. Just want to make a commission! You will get a better deal if you contact a home personally.

I had to tell these vultures at least 6 times in a 2 week period that my father passed away. In the two weeks since he passed, I got at least a call a day from facilities in A DIFFERENT TOWN(!), even though I was told that my info would only be given to 3 facilities that we had discussed (in the correct location). They made an appointment for me to do a walk-through, and I had an official-looking e-mail confirmation, but the place didn't even know I was coming (from out of state!) Terrible communication and a horrible experience.

Right after I put in my online request for info, I received a call from them that I couldn't answer and a message. It was followed by THREE hang-up calls from A Place For Mom. Once I was able to answer their call, I talked with someone and she built the relationship. I felt better, but then every day I got a call from a NEW person from there asking me the same terrible questions about my dad and they seemed to have NO idea that one of their colleagues was already working with me.

The people behind the calls may seem to care and may actually have empathy and insight, but the company they work for must have terrible policies and clearly no quality control. I had asked them to remove my contact information from any distribution lists and their own, and I'm still getting calls.

YOU DO NOT NEED THIS COMPANY TO FIND QUALITY CARE! CALL YOUR OPTIONS DIRECTLY, BECAUSE THEY CAN'T EVEN SET UP AN APPOINTMENT FOR YOU PROPERLY. THEY WILL HARASS YOU. THEY DON'T HAVE THE CAPACITY TO REMOVE YOU FROM DISTRIBUTED LISTS. OVERMORE, THEY JUST DON'T CARE!
