"I am writing to express mine and my sister's and brother's thanks to A Place for Mom, in particular Jessica, Eldercare Advisor of the recent move of our mom into Atria assisted living community. Jessica with her exhaustive knowledge of the New York health care industry, caring personality and tireless work ethic, is an invaluable asset to A Place for Mom. My initial conversation with Jessica involved her getting a feel for our Mom's then living conditions and what was going on in her life that was necessitating the search for assisted living. At the end of our hour long conversation, there was a consensus between us of which facilities would potentially be a good fit for our Mom. Jessica made the initial introductions, asking that they contact me to set up appointments for a visit and provide me with informational packets. Thank you A Place for Mom for affording my siblings and me an avenue and valuable resources that we so greatly needed in finding our Mom a safe, warm and caring home, for what we hope are many years to come."

"Thank you so much for your assistance and advice helping locate an appropriate facility for my mom. Your service is invaluable. It helped me tremendously. I went from a social worker at the hospice telling me on Monday they wanted my mom out by Wed and handing me a list of 60 – 80 names to evaluate on my own, to being able to tell you about my mom’s needs and getting a small list of known good places in about 15 minutes. I appreciate you referring me to a list of 3 – 6 that you knew may be appropriate, with good ratings by someone like you and families. What a relief it was to have someone with your knowledge share information to help steer me in the right direction and help me make an informed decision. It was helpful for me to be able to report back to you what I found and get additional names to evaluate. You are amazing. Thank you for your initial efforts and your continuous feedback and follow-up. The world is a better place because of people like you (and Kim) and your service. I definitely will recommend you and your service to anyone that I know that has to go through the difficult task of finding an appropriate place from mom (or family members). In a time of such stress and uncertainty it is incredibly helpful to be able to filter through the numerous facilities so quickly. I feel much more secure in my decision after being able to take the week to tour facilities, question the staff and take my mom to see several of the top contenders. "

"I just wanted to take a moment to say thank for helping me to find a new home for my father. I am so glad that you encouraged me to visit Fair Oaks Assisted Living community because it turned out to be not only a lovely campus but so far, the entire staff seems a great fit for my father's unique needs. Nancy was just tremendous and I cannot say enough about her professional, caring and empathetic manner. I feel that this is a perfect fit for my dad and our family. Thank you again"
