"I would like to thank you for all your help. I still cannot believe so much was accomplished in such little time. After three weeks of banging my head against a wall, thanks to your help, it all suddenly fell into place."

"A Place for Mom is a real life saver; mother had fallen in excess of 15 times in the past year and when we took them on vacation with us Dad fell twice (that makes 3 times within 3 weeks) and Mom fell once. In the past year she has broken both wrists, one at a time. If it wasn't for A Place for Mom, I would still be at their beckon call, 24/7. I can't believe what two weeks of meals three times a day has made in their appearance. They both have pink cheeks and look much healthier. It's wonderful to know that you are there if I need you, your an angel!"

"Thanks for the information, and also for your help finding Commons on Marice. What a difference a positive attitude makes when facing any of life’s most difficult transitions. I couldn’t be more pleased with the way the staff welcomed my mom and helped her through the first day!"
