"I can't tell you how relieved I am that I found a central location in "A Place for Mom" to help me narrow the search for assisted living for my mother. More importantly, my family and I are exceedingly happy that we found an individual who was caring and as interested in finding "just the right place" for our mom. Thank you so much for all your help!"

-- Jackie B.

"A Place for Mom really filled a need for my family and me. As I mentioned to you, the fact the you provided me with several locations tailored to my aunt's and cousin's needs narrowed our search considerably. Also the information you provide with suggestions on how to deal with their doubts and fears is very useful. I am so appreciative for an organization such as yours!"

-- Elsa B.

"I took my parents to Meadow Lodge in Chelmsford MA yesterday. I think this is a great place for them. They can share a apartment and my dad will get the extra care he needs. My mom will have the freedom to have an active life and know he will be cared for by the staff. You don't know how much of a relief this is not to put him in a nursing home. In May 2007 they will be married 60 years it is great that they can stay together. Thank you so much; you've been a great help to someone who didn't have a clue."

-- Kathy M.
