From the outset, when I was so reluctant to truly consider placing Mom in assisted living till today when she is placed, you have been so thorough, thoughtful and respectful of not only Mom's needs but mine also. You and A Place for Mom need to be congratulated for the terrific work you do for those of us in the position of caring for, and making decisions for an elderly parent. Bravo!!!"

"We want to extend our deepest appreciation and respect to you for the total efficiency you have displayed in such a short period to resolve a lot of our immediate worries and placement concerns. I would have spent days, maybe weeks, getting to the point of where we are now in trying to place Mom in a better environment had it not been for our fortunate contact with you. Wouldn't it be nice for everyone in our shoes to have a person like Connie in their pocket!"

"Thank you for all of your support and advice. These are tough times and decisions, but I really feel that I have explored all of our options and that my parents are in the best place that they can be for now."

However I do thank you from the bottom of my heart and I thank God for you and others who do what you do."

The articles on memory loss you sent were useful and needless to say, the list of facilities you gave me was incredibly helpful. The best part though, is the sense of peace I have now knowing that the day to day struggles are over. My aunt is seems relaxed and more settled than she's been in a long time knowing she's going to be living so close to me. It's a relief for both of us. Thanks so much for making this possible!"

"You have been such comfort and help during this very difficult time. I believe God guided me to you as you surely have been a God-send for me.

You are quite special...I never thought that when I received your info from a professor that I'd ever get someone so special and interested in ""hope"" that it would inspire me to do everything I could to ensure the best for my mother -- you were truly that beacon and ray of hope that was from someone who really cared."

"It's a wonderful service you provide. It's always stressful times for families and you have such a pleasant positive manner -- sooo much appreciated!"

"Words can not express how this task was made into a joy to do. I believe we are all here to do what comes natural, for me it is taking care of children and for you it is finding A Place for Mom.

From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for being there."

"Thanks for the help and direction you provided to get Dad a good place to live."

You let me do things my way, but in the end I did exactly what you suggested, although I thought it was my idea. I laughed at myself quite often over this. You were my Angel sent from up above."

"Fortunately I never had to deal with this difficult situation before, so I didn't know too much about it and luckily a friend of mine told me about A Place for Mom. I cannot give enough praise and thanks to Bob. He was knowledgeable, extremely helpful, proactive, and professional, has great follow-up and is very compassionate. He also provided additional guidance and advice on how to handle various difficult conversations as well as the logistics and much more. I speak for my entire family and say that finding Bob and your service was a miracle for our family and I really don't know what we would have done without him."

"Mom moved into Atria and she loves it there so far. She thinks the staff is terrific, very conscientious, helpful and warm. I haven't heard her this happy in many, many years. I don't know if I would have even looked at this community if it weren't for your suggestions and help with the process, including the financial advice. I can't thank you enough."

"You were an angel in need when you answered my message about my husband. He needed quick placement and I was desperate. I cannot stress how you were there when I needed you, Maggie. I felt very alone with searching for a place for husband and you came to my rescue. You were very patient and you were the BEST!!!"

"This entire process has been one that has been beyond our expectations. You have been such a blessing to all of us. I truly don't know how we ever would have accomplished this huge task with such calm (most of the time!). You are so wonderful, kind, helpful and understanding! Thank you again for your service. I will never forget you and the impact you had on our family."

"I can’t think of anything you could have done better or different. Your support and help was so fantasticI can’t thank you enough for all you’ve done for us."

"I want you and all the staff at A Place for Mom to know that you are very much appreciated. It’s great to know that there are so many wonderful people out there to help save someone like me. I could not have done this alone."

"From above and beyond the call of duty, Rosy has talked with me during the dark hours of doubt and the paralyzing fear of doing the right or wrong thing for my Mother. I was able to speak so freely with Rosy and address issues that I didn't feel comfortable discussing with other family. Sometimes a hand that reaches out is stronger than all the armies in the world. I don't think I could have made this type of year long journey with A Place for Mom and with out the kind, warm, caring and deeply committed person of Rosy."

"I can't begin to explain to you what a relief it is to have some one like you to talk with. I'm so frazzled right now & your service has taken a huge weight off of me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I feel very comfortable dealing with you."

"I really appreciate our discussions and your support. I will continue to recommend you as I find other s in similar situations."

"I cannot thank you enough or find the words to express what your help, concern and guidance has meant to our family. Your immediate concern and referrals solved our problems and we found a facility 4 miles from my niece's home within one week."

"The information and contacts you provided were a great help and support to all the questions on how to deal with both of our parents. Without your help, I don't know where we would have been. Thanks very much and I'm sure that I'll remember you when any of my friends or colleagues ask me about this issue."

"I wanted to take a moment and share with you what a wonderful experience I have had this week with your service, but specifically with Sandra. She has been assisting me in placing my uncle in The Roosevelt Place. It has been extremely challenging. I cannot possibly say enough about Sandra, she is a truly a jewel."

"I want you to know that Carol has been one life's blessings to me. If it were not for her, I believe I never would have been able to relocate my sister to a facility near us. She gave me valuable information, unending support and encouragement to get us through this initial stage in moving my sister. It meant more to me than I can express."

"I want to thank you so much for your caring attitude and helpful information. You made this process much easier!"

"I want to send a special thank to Carol for helping me look for a place for my mom. Carol was especially helpful to me and I appreciate that very much."

"Just wanted to let you know I found a gold mine for Dad! There's a shared room open at Courtyard Plaza and his roommate is the activities director! Thank you so much for all your help. You made this so easy for me and I will reccommend you to anyone."

"Words cannot express my gratitude to A Place for Mom and more importantly, to you Tony, for your assistance in my search for a friendly and warm independent living community for my dad. Your warm friendly nature shone through about you as a person and a professional Eldercare Advisor. With our continued telephone conversations, I found your patience and concern in listening to my questions, knowing my lack of experience in doing research on these communities, to be very reassuring. Your guidance and direction helped me in finding the right community to suite my dad’s lifestyle. It has been a week now since my dad moved into Pocasset Bay Manor and he is doing amazing well."

"Thank you for your help and encouraging words. My wife and I appreciate any help you can give us."

"I just want to take this time to “THANKYOU.” We are very pleased with this service and would recommend this service to anyone."

"Thank you for sending all the information so quickly. Thanks so much for all your help. You are an angel for helping me when I had no where else to turn."

"I placed my Dad in Walnut House over the week-end. So far he is doing OK there. Thanks you so much for all of your help and support (and pushing) to get this done. I think I have been trying to make him live a life, this last year, that I wanted him to live and he was no longer capable of doing it. Being the parent for your parents is really hard. Thank God, there are people like you who can be a resource."

"I just want to take the time to thank you with all of my heart for guiding us to such a great place. The staff is so kind and you can tell there is caring ever present; which is the most important thing to me for my elder. Mrs. L is very happy with what she saw and she looks forward to a long stay. She is very social so all of the activities and the others will enable her to have a life and not be alone."

"Finding you has been such a blessing to me. I really do feel that once I talked to you the 1st time things just started to fall into place. I work in the health care environment and still have problems navigating the system. I do not understand how people without my knowledge and resources handle it."

"Many thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I don't know what I did before I found you or what I will do if I lose your number somehow. A million thanks!"

"Thank you for sharing and caring. I know in my head this is the right path and I am determined to follow my head not my heart for Dad's sake and well being. You have been a God send. It’s really sad that I am receiving more support from a stranger than my family. I am still struggling with all this quite a bit but have a plan and am moving forward. Thank you for all your input and support not sure where I would be without your assistance."

"Thank you so much for your invaluable efforts on our behalf to find a place for our mom. Your recommendations and referrals were exactly what we were looking for. You spoke to us about the 'quality of life' commitment at the different facilities. You gave us the names to ask for at the facility and included all the current information. The help you gave us about what paper work would be needed and the procedures was invaluable. You also took the time to counsel us on our feelings about placing our mom and what advantages you had seen to such a placement. You also took the time to check back with us several times to make sure everything was going smoothly. Our mom took up residence at Seasons. The first day was rough and our mom did not want to be there. She seems to be happy now. We are taking each day as it comes. She is still adjusting and we know there will be some difficult days. We also know we made the right choice for our mom and largely due to your help and the wonderful staff at Seasons. We were so fortunate to have you in our corner, screening and narrowing down our search. You seemed to know just what we were looking for and what we were going through. We know what a valuable service you provide and will surely recommend A Place for Mom to our friends and colleagues. We wanted you to know that you helped us through a difficult time in our lives and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts!"

"Thanks for all the assistance that A Place for Mom has given to my family. The last few years have been difficult, but it was reassuring to get advice from experts like your organization. Helping parents transition from care-givers to care-receivers is quite a challenge and you helped us tremendously."

"A nice lady from A Place for Mom's Family got in touch with me and is going to help guide me as to where I might be able to go. I don't think I have ever been so afraid. Everything that I know is now going to be different, and I, at this time don't even know where I will be able to go. But this nice lady named Kathy has certainly given me some hope."

"Thank you so much all of your help and advice - I now feel a bit more "on top" of what I am doing and the information you have sent is so appreciated. I most surely will let each of the places we visit know that you were the referring person. Many, many thanks!"

"! Front end steerage like you provided is invaluable particularly for someone new to the area. What you and A Place For Mom network can do is awesome!"

"I can't thank you enough for recommending Cherry Blossom Cottage. Joe really loved it and said it felt like he was at home."

"My parents are still doing VERY WELL in the assisted living place you found for us. They have been there for a year now and what a blessing the place has been. Your help was so valuable to us. Thank you again!"

"Mom was very upset, agitated, and behaving aggressively and was asking us to come to take her home. After finding A Place for Mom on the web, I was blessed to receive a note from Michelle, and later phone calls and much communication about my options for Mom's care. Without Michelle, we would have been lost, to say the least."

"Thanks so much for sending me the info and for helping to make more sound decisions for my mother-in-law. You have a heart of gold and I appreciate all your help."

"Thank you very much for your help with helping to place Mom at The Gardens of West Orange. So far she is quite happy. Her room is very adequate and we are getting her settled. She had talked to a friend of hers when she first got there and told her how nice it was, so her friend wound up moving in there also. Again, thank you for your help."

"Laura's mom seems to be loving her new life at the Gardens. We even got her a cat who lives with her in the apartment. She seems happy and has made friends. Looks like we made a good choice with your help!!!"

"I just wanted to tell you thank you so much for all of your help in finding a place for my Aunt. Keep up the good work!"

"We are delighted to have found you and A Place for Mom. You were truly sent by God to assist us and we thank you!"

"My mother-in-law is doing her best at Farmington Hills Inn. We are coming to value and love the folks that work so patiently with our loved one. We could never have made such a wise choice without your guidance."

"I can never "THANK YOU" enough for all you help, guidance and support. Without your help, I don't know where I'd beYou and your company are a true God sent."

"The assistance you provided really made mom's transition possible. You have been available every time we needed information in addition to giving us insight into some information that we would never have gained without your help. It is very obvious that what you do is so much more than a job to you, it’s a calling and you do a wonderful job."

"I am grateful for your assistance. I appreciate you taking the time to make our tour times and look forward to visiting each location."

"I don't know how to thank you enough for getting me to investigate all the possibilities for my mother's care. Your advice was right on in every regard."

"I can't tell you how thankful I am to talk to you, knowing you can understand what I've been through. There is now hope for me to not feel so frustrated with navigating everything and not knowing what to do."

"I just wanted to let you know how appreciative I am for all the work that Carla has done on my behalf as I attempt to move my mother closer to me and into an assisted living facility. From the beginning, Carla has offered solid advice."

"I want to thank you so much for your help and direction. We are going to be moving Jims' sister into the American. I want you to know that it was a HUGE help just having initial and follow up contact with you."

"I want to thank you soooo much for your help. It really made this task so much easier. Most importantly, I am really happy with the selection. I think her life will be vastly improved."

"Monica, you were absolutely great! I really appreciated your continuing to follow-up with me. At first I felt like it was too complicated trying to decide what options were best & how to navigate through everything. You were persistent with calling & checking & offering solutions or new avenues. You always followed through with what you said you would do. You helped tremendously."

"I just visited Mom today and she looks 110% better. So far she loves the new place. I think it reminds her of college days. The staff has been wonderful and prompt to any concerns I have had. She even told me she doesn't remember her old house and never wants to go back there! You were just wonderful and helpful to us and I could not have asked for anything more to be done. Thank you so much."

"Thank you for your help. It is overwhelming to try to think of where to begin when this comes up unexpectedly and after you contacted me I felt so much better knowing that someone was trying to help. Thank you again and I would definitely tell anyone in need of your services that it is a great help in trying to sort through options."

"Grace is doing fine. I can't think of any way you could have made my search easier. Keep up the good work!"

"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."

"I want to thank you for your assistance when I needed some direction with placing my Dad in a care facility. In reviewing your recommendations, we decided to move him into Summerville. It is a good fit for him and he is happy with the environment. Thanks again for your assistance."

"Just want to thank you again for all your information and assistance. You were like a light in a dark place. Armed with the info you sent, we feel pretty sure that we've covered our bases and can help Margie make her decisions as long as she's able, and have the required paperwork in place to allow us to make the ones she would want when she is not. Again, just wanted to thank you for everything. I've taken the liberty of telling everyone who will listen about your service, in the event that someone else can find the light at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes all it takes is someone who cares, will listen, and suggest answers."

"When I first contacted you, we were just beginning to think about what options were available for my father. It was a very difficult telephone call to make, but you seemed to have such a deep understanding of the issues families face when making that first call, that you helped put me somewhat at ease. The literature you sent me was also very helpfulI would highly recommend your services to others, and again, thank you for all your help."

"I just want to thank you for everything you have done for me and my family. I have had mixed emotions of going through this transition with my dad. You made me realize this is in the best interest for everyone concerned. Your sensitivity was wonderful and your guidance extremely helpful. I will tell my friends of your wonderful organization and hopefully it would benefit them as much as it did for me."

"I have been referring you and your services to several people I know that are dealing with aging parents/grandparents etc. I can not thank you enough for the support and information you provided for me at a time when I was overwhelmed."

"Thank you so much for all of your help! You got us in so quickly to so many facilities that I would never have found on my own (each facility was wonderful), you were able to answer my many questions, and you listened and understood what has been going on in our lives. We took Al to Brighton Gardens. When we first got there he was distrustful and looked at me and said "You're taking me home, right?" I said yes. He was a bit feisty for a moment, not seeming to like it there. Carolyn and I left him for a bit to talk with the nurse and get his belongings. By the time we got back to his section, he was sitting at a table drinking coffee and eating so we just left to let him get adjusted."

"I just spoke to David at the VA who was going over the application that my brother had prepared. He said all looked good; he had one question that he would call my brother about, but other than that -- it is ready to be filed. It may take 4 to 6 months, but as you said the benefits would be retroactive. I thanked him for personally walking us through this process; however, I wanted to also thank you once again for all your help and support. If it hadn't been for you, we wouldn't have known about this benefit. You are truly a godsend and we cannot thank you enough for all your help."

"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 cannot thank you enough for all your incredible help and information. I have been back and forth with the county for over 6 months, language barriers, etc, and you helped me more than anyone for all this time! I am going over to Summerville tomorrow and meeting with Samantha, I am feeling so much better about this now. With the Veterans help and Mom’s Social Security, I think we can swing it. I actually can see light! You have been so lovely explaining this maze to me, bless you. I will let you know about the visit, and of course will let her know who recommended them!"

"Cindy, your service was great, and I have told others about, including my mom's doctor. My mother loves the Palms, the people that work that are great, the food is wonderful, and my mom, who is hard to please is very happy, thanks for sending us there."

"You were absolutely a godsend. I appreciate sooo much all the help you gave me. Mom is successfully situated in her new home and I think happier than she has been in a very long time. The activities and social interaction are precisely what she needed along with the daily supervision. She occasionally talks about returning to her home, but I think this is mostly out of confusion. The visits by friendly and friends in the course of a few weeks has exceeded the last several years."

"Thank you so much for all your help and kindness. We moved Mom into Christopher Heights and she seems to be doing great. I have spoken to her daily and she sounds wonderful and I am going to visit her tomorrow. I can't tell you how wonderful it was to have someone so nice help me with such a difficult situation. Thank goodness for you."

"I am happy to report that Mother is adjusting very well to life at Hearthstone. If anything she seems to enjoy the actives and other residents. I sincerely appreciate all the help you gave to me. I feel blessed that I got you as my point of contact. Besides providing the services of helping me find a place for my mother and all the information on elder care and health issues you were willing to let me talk about concerns and vent. Being able to do that made it easier for me to make good decisions for placing my Mother. I can and will highly recommend A Place for Mom to my friends as I know many of them will face making some major decisions for the care of their elderly parents in the near future."

"I was able to place my mother with Carter House. Thank you for all of your help. The staff and owners of Carter House have been extremely nice and caring. You have been a godsend during this most difficult time. Thank you so very much!"

"Thank you! Your phone call this morning was a godsend and I can't tell you what your understanding and compassion has meant. I will certainly use the information you sent and hope you are aware that you are a guardian angel! Thanks again!"

"Your conversation, information and follow through were invaluable to us!!! Thank you so much. As a matter of fact Mom is moving into a facility in Van Nuys. Right now Mom is not happy about all of this but we all have hopes that in time she will adjust. Thanks again for all your help and information. We truly do appreciate it and I'm so glad I contacted your assistance program!"

"Thanks so much for thinking of us! Thanks to you, I think I have found the perfect apt for mom. The staff there is absolutely amazing! I have mom about 98% convinced. I am bringing her a whole bunch of pictures tomorrow to 'seal the deal'. She has promised to give me the 'official' go ahead once she sees what everything looks like. I have given the name of your organization to several people already. I refer to you as my 'guardian angel'. I would have never gotten this far so quickly without your help."

"Mom is doing great at Carestone. She's eating a lot better and enjoying all the activities they do every day. The people are great. It means a lot knowing she's being so well taken care of. Thank you for all your hard work in finding such a great place. I know that I could not have done this without you. "

"Thanks for all your help, you made a difficult proposition a lot easier! You found that needle in a haystack that would have taken me many times longer to find on my own. Kudos to your service!"

"I could not be more pleased with how mom is doing at Sunrise and their setup. When I talk with her, she sounds happier than I can ever remember. She is receiving physical therapy twice a week, has had appointments with her new doctor, is getting her hair done with out arguments and in general sounds more with it. I appreciate your help in finding Sunrise. This has turned out to be the right place for her. "

"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!"

"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."

"I appreciate all of you help in finding a caregiving service. I truly was struggling with this issue when my Mom was in the hospital. Golden Homes has been great. They are just what I needed. I cannot thank you enough for helping me through this difficult time."

"I fully appreciate all of your help with this. You were professional, yet personable. You took care of my questions and concerns right away. You were full of information and passed it all on in a timely manner. You did a thorough job and I am willing to pass this information on to anyone else. Thank you for all of your help. It is not easy to move a loved one into an environment away from home. "

"My sister and I are really pleased and think Magnolia Glen will be a wonderful place for our mother to flourish and have a better quality of life. I can't thank you enough for the tip that led us there! We would still be looking and considering options if it wasn't for you. Thank you!"

"I am so thankful for you and your services. I was so distraught when we first talked and as a result of your efforts a scary process was made easy. A Place for Mom is an incredible service and your thoughtfulness and caring manner was appreciated. Next week, my mom will be entering an assisted living facility. I am sure I am making the right decision. I could not have made an informed decision without your assistance. Thanks again for the referrals, your compassion and timely follow-up."

"Thanks for all your help and concern. You have been so wonderful and given so much information and direction. My Aunt and I would have been lost without you."

"You indeed rescued me when I was searching for a place for my Aunt. I was amazed at your efficiency, pleased that you prodded me forward by arranging all the visits and then managed to get the place at Heather Heights held until I could straighten out all the issues involved. You were indeed my rescuer."

"I was not prepared for everything that we have had to do and neither were my children, but once I talked to you and learned about "A Place for Mom" it made what had to be done much easier. I truly can't thank you enough. Your group has been a fantastic resource for us. I will always refer anyone that I hear of that is in our situation, to call "A Place for Mom"."

"Thank you for the article. It’s very informative. I also want to update you regarding my mom. She was discharged today, and moved into Oyster Bay. After feeling very anxious in the morning, she seemed to be feeling more excited about it. The staff welcomed her warmly and I feel confident we chose the right place for her. I’ll keep you posted. Thank you so very much for your help. Your guidance and support have been a blessing for me. Thank you again."

"Wow! I am so impressed with your timely and very thorough response to my inquiries about assisted living facilities for my mother. I already received a call from Lamar Court and Villa Ventura in Kansas. The info you provided gives me everything I need to begin my search for the right place for Mom!"

"Thank you so much for the information. I look forward to visiting the facilities you passed along. I appreciate your assistance and guidance. I am feeling very confident about this entire process largely due to your help!"

"My father has improved by leaps and bounds! My mother is adjusting to the change, but I think she will be fine considering how bad her dementia is. You were very thoughtful and kind and instructive. I will always recommend your service to my friends and family in times of need."

"You provided some very valuable advice and I really wanted to let you know that it meant so much to me and my family. Your organization is fantastic, and what you do - helping people help their loved ones - it is amazing. I cannot thank you enough."

"Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping my family and me in our time of crisis. I will not forget what you and A Place for Mom have done for us. "

"Evelyn is enjoying the new home a lot better. You have helped us so much with everything and I can't express enough how much I have relied on your judgment and caring for all of us. You have given both my husband and I a wonderful outlook and piece of mind while in such a trying time in our lives. "

"My brother is doing great. Elmcroft is really a wonderful place. My brother and I are working together to make his new home successful, and I have to say that Elmcroft has been very supportive. Your encouragement really helped get me through a difficult time."

"It looks like Mom and Dad are going to be moving. They made a deposit and are planning to move sometime in January. We are so excited about the idea of them being closer to us. I was really at a loss about which places to check until I contacted you. Thank you for all of your help!"

"Thank you so much for all your help in this journey that I've been on. You are truly a life saver and I think a real angel. I am so thankful that I found you."

"The combination of your expertise and kindness (not to mention your availability and fast response on a weekend) made this difficult decision so much easier for my mother! I am so grateful to you."

"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!"

"It is such a blessing and a relief to have someone with experience to help guide us through this process. I found your web-site at 1 am on a Sunday morning as I desperately sought alternatives for my 90 year old father. Immediately after making contact, I slept better. I knew immediately that you were a caring person with the background and experience necessary to help us make a good decision. Thanks so much for your help!"

"Thank you so much for your help in finding a place for my Mom. The Loyalton of Joliet had a room available and we already moved her things! She viewed the facility Wednesday during the lunch meeting that you set up. Again, thank you for your input. "

"I can't express how much my family appreciates how quickly you helped us find a place for my father and, as luck would have it, also my mother. We never could have done what you have done for us in such a timely manner. I still can't believe it! Thank you ever so much for your thoughtfulness and time. Also, my father is thrilled to be going somewhere where he will see Yale graduates. He went to law school there."

"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 you so very much for the encouraging message; truly it is a real challenge being the caregiver for a family member; especially mom. Thank you for being there to help in times when I didn't know what to do or where to turn for help. You have made my work a little easier knowing that I can call on you when I need to. It takes a very special person to be able to do the job in helping other people as you do; especially when families are experiencing traumatic times. I appreciate every minute, every hour, and every moment you took to talk with me and to help me in the manner that you did. "

"Just to let you know that my family has selected a assisted living community for my mother. You have been instrumental in this very difficult process. All my friends have aging parents and I’ve emailed them your website. I can never thank you enough. THANK YOU so very much for all your efforts."

"Thanks so much for all of the information and assistance. A Place for Mom made locating an assisted living community for my father easier than I could ever have hoped. Dad is doing very well. This transition was so smooth for my Dad that he went through the entire move with no panic attacks. Change is a difficult thing for anyone and the older we are the tougher it is. Thank God for services like yours to help us."

"Your help and support means a lot to me, because it's hard to put into words what we are going through right now. I never thought I would have to go through something like this with my mom. It really helps to know there are organizations out there that care like this one. I just want you to know that you are a great help to us. Thank you so much for caring."

"I wanted to extend a thank you from our family for your efforts to help us. You have been very helpful in guiding us through this process. You are a wealth of information. Thank you again, you were so helpful."

"Mom is starting to settle in. Thanks so much for your help. It was helpful receiving all the articles you sent and also your follow-up phone calls to check on things. I will certainly pass your name on if I meet up with anyone that needs similar assistance. Thanks again! "

"I found your service extremely helpful during a very difficult time for me. The information that you gave helped me research and find the best place for my mom due to her financial constraints. I have applied for the veterans benefits and hope that the processing of her application will not take months. Once again thank you for all your help. I will definitely recommend your service. "

"I want you to know how much I appreciate the support and guidance you have provided these past few weeks. As you well know it is not a simple matter to uproot someone from a known environment and put them into a new one. I have faith that the few small bumps we have encountered so far will be overcome pretty quickly and that she will settle in and be happy at her new home. It is a very lovely assisted living community and everyone there seems eager to be supportive and helpful. Again, thank you! "

"I just wanted to say thanks for your wonderful service! I have placed my mother in the assisted living community in Orange you passed along. I chose this community because the staff and services seemed to be so personalized and interactive. I felt comfortable that my Mother would be encouraged and included with all of the activities and that the staff would go the extra mile to ensure that she participates and has optimal care. Anyway, thanks again. We are so delighted with the outcome and you made it all come about. Have a wonderful day"

"I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the help and support that you gave to me and my mother. Because of you, the whole situation was a lot less stressful than it could have been. Again, thank you. I will never forget your care and concern. You are the best!"

"Mom is doing incredibly well. The stroke has left her with very minimal language deficits. At this point, her primary difficulty is with very mild word finding difficulties. She is aware when this occurs and just moves on with the next thing. Thanks again for all of your help. Mom is living like a "queen" and we would never have found a home for her without you."

"Thank you for all you've done to help this transition go smoothly. Your skill and expertise was so greatly appreciated. There were several times we felt helpless or powerless and your encouraging words made a difference. Thank you so much. "

"Thanks for your thoughtfulness. You were so helpful and saved us a lot of time and energy with all the information that you sent. If you had not mentioned the benefits from V.A., we would not have known that my mother-in-law would have any entitlements. Thanks for your assistance. "

"I want to thank you for the wonderful advice and assistance in helping us find the PERFECT assisted living community for our Mother. She saw the lovely room we had fixed up for her and she immediately changed her tone and mood and starting saying things like, “I feel like I'm in a fancy hotel, this is just too nice for me, I don't deserve it!” I will always be so grateful to you for the professional and personal advice and assistance."

"I want to thank you so much for all you've done to help us out. You were so responsive it was awesome! I would highly recommend "A Place for Mom" to anyone! Thanks a million! "

You helped set things in motion. You gave me the confidence and understanding that I needed to start looking around for "A Place for Mom" I will keep in touch. Thank you so much for your kindness and understanding. "

"Thank you so much for your help and care in finding my parents an assisted living apartment this week. I realize how many years I have worried about my parents care and how my life has changed in the process. I appreciate not only your information, but how much you truly cared. A Place for Mom is a valuable service and so important to care givers. Thank you so much! "

"You are the BEST! I went to one of the assisted living communities you suggested today and spent a long time with the staff members there. They're all wonderful and the place is beautiful! I reserved an apartment for Dad. I would never have found this place had it not been for you."

"It was such comfort when I contacted you and you listened to my story and gave me support and guidance through this troubled time. It was so hard to know where to turn and when someone mentioned “A Place For Mom” and I contacted you it was a relief to finally find someone that would actually help us. We have friends that are having the same issues that we are having and I will highly recommend that they contact “A Place For Mom." Thank you again for saving my sanity. This seems dramatic, but true. "

" Your service was a great help and we are very pleased with my mother's care. I would definitely recommend your service to others as it cuts time and stress from the search process!"

"Thanks so much for all your help. I really think that you have led us in the right direction. I think it is all going to work out in the end, thanks to you! Thanks a million!"

"My parents are still adjusting to the environment, but enjoying the great food and all the conveniences the assisted living community has to offer. Your help to me was invaluable. I don't think I could have done what I did without your help. You really listened and helped me to find the best place for my parents."

"I cannot begin to tell you how helpful the information and links you sent me about assisted living communities have been! My parents, brothers and I will have a lot to talk about and consider. I pray that God will bless you for this wonderful service you offer to people like my parents and my family."

"I can't thank you enough for the personal help and assistance. It's been a very tough seven weeks for me. Finding the just the right assisted living community so quickly made everything that much easier. Thank you so much! "

"You provide a wonderful service that is very much appreciated. My Mom had refused to consider such a move in the past, so when it finally became necessary, I had one week to find a place and move her in. I couldn't have done it without your help. I will recommend your service at every opportunity. Thank you again."

"I was truly impressed by how quickly you responded to my call, and your company responded to my email. I was very appreciative of the number of options you were able to get to me so quickly. Your personal concern for my “emergency” situation was very comforting, and calming for me. I was amazed at the number of facilities that contacted me so quickly. I also want to thank you for the articles you sent via email, as some I shared with my sister immediately to help her cope, and others were a comfort to me."

"I have passed the word along to anyone who will listen about A Place For Mom and how wonderful you have been. I cannot thank you enough. You were there for me when my own family was not, even though you and I have never met. And you were just doing your job. Thank you again. Your caring and kindness touched me. You have made a HUGE difference in someone's life, mine -- and Dad's too."

"You have no idea how much your calls meant to me and the help you have given me over the last few months. As you know, when I contacted "A Place for Mom," I was at a pretty desperate point in my life and didn't know where to turn. There were several places I contacted and you were the only one to actually call and speak with me. I received e-mails from the others, but no human voice. The concern and care you showed me was a blessing. I thought I was alone, but there you were telling me to relax and don't worry, you would help me with the task of finding the right place for "Dad". What a burden you lifted from me. What a gift you are to me and, I'm sure to the other families you work with."

"I remember our first conversation so well and what a relief it was to speak with someone who had answers and experience. I think "A Place For Mom" is a great find. You always had time for my questions and sent me info and articles to help us make informed decisions. Thanks again for everything. "

"A Place for Mom prompted this retired NY State worker with an extremely rare muscle condition to think about his current situation and how it could be better. Thanks for all your help."

"I want to take this time to say "thank you" for all of your help, guidance and encouragement while my Sister, Debbie, and I agonized over Mom's move. Thank you again for all your caring and hard work. Your concern comes right through the telephone. You have touched our lives. "

"I appreciate your caring words and all of the times that you just listened to what was "going on" with my Mom. The compassion and excellent "customer service" that you and all of the employees at A Place For Mom pour out to the community is a blessing. Please know that you make a difference every day, not just the day that Mom moves in to her new home. Thank you so much! "

"Words can not express how much your support has meant. I don't know how to thank you properly. How did you always know when I needed an informed ear? If only I had the resources to buy you a car or a cruise or something of that girth. Just know that I am indebted. "

"Coming from no experience whatsoever, it was wonderful to have A Place for Mom as a resource, and the responsiveness to my information needs and options was excellent. I will definitely recommend A Place for Mom! Thank you again for all of your help. "

"My mother-in-law and aunt are all snuggled into their new home. Ms. Ruth is an unbelievable person. It was like the heavens opened up and dropped her down just in time to save us. I can’t imagine what would have happened without your help."

"Mom has settled in to Skyview and seems very content. She likes having people around her and loves to talk. I consider myself a very lucky man. After about 30 minutes on the Internet I found your site and it seemed to be a good place to start. I filled in the brief questionnaire and fully expected to hear nothing for a week or two. Much to my surprise you both called & e-mailed me within a day."

"You made things so much easier for my mother and me. You just don't know how much you eased my anxiety and apprehension about finding just the right environment for my mom. I just loved Edna! The introductions that you facilitated made it so much easier for me to gain knowledge and information about each of the options of housing that were available. "

"You made our difficult job so much easier! Having a list of places to go to, and having people already know about our needs was very helpful."

"Mom has settled in very well, and I'm so pleased with Brighton Gardens. I can already see a difference in her and her care. It was a great suggestion and I appreciate you helping me find it."

"I never took the time to let you know how much our family appreciated your help in finding placement for my father-in-law with your help we found a wonderful facility with caring staff and administration. Before his passing it was not unusual to find a staff member or someone from administration in his room just checking on him. They actually cared about him as a person as well as an individual. Even when he was actively dying it seemed as though they could not do enough for him or for our family. We still miss him terribly but we take great comfort in knowing that during his final days he was well taken care of and treated as a person."

"I know there is a big journey ahead, but it will be a better one because of your help. Thank you."

"I want to thank you for your support through all of this. All the contact people you have put me in touch with have been wonderful. Just know that I am your walking talking advertiser for “A Place for Mom.”"

"We decided to move my mom to Freedome Point in Minnetonka, and the wheels are in motion to get that move done ASAP. It's a beautiful place full of the nicest people. We have little doubt that my mom will love it there once she adjusts. She'll be safe, and she'll get the care and attention needed. And you're probably tired of me repeating it, but I can't express enough appreciation for your help. You were very caring during a very stressful and sad time. You really were fabulous!"

"Thank you so much for guiding me through the process and pointing me in the right direction for my dad. You pointed out veteran's benefits that I would have not known about had it not been for you and, you found us a great place for him to be."

"I want to thank you for all of your efforts on my behalf in trying to place my husband. You were so diligent in keeping in touch with me and I do appreciate it. It was comforting to have someone I could contact and share my needs with and you fulfilled that completely."

"Thank You for your effort, knowledgebase and factual demeanor. My brother and I cannot express how much you helped us out in this process which is absolutely brutal. "

"You will be glad to hear that my sister Ruth is very happy at Springhouse. She has many people with whom to talk, and there are always interesting activities planned. Last week one of the activity directors got her involved in a bridge game. Although she had not played for many years she still had her point count card and the score card - it was a lovely afternoon for her. We can't thank you enough for all your help."

"You and the service that you supply are life savers, literally. My mom loves where she is and has a totally new out look on life. The nursing home said she would be in a wheel chair for the rest of her life because she didn’t have the will to walk again. She is now starting to use her walker and her life is becoming filled with the things she loved to do. She’s playing bridge, meeting new friends and still close to us so that we can just pop in anytime we want. She now has her privacy back which is wonderful and Spring Estates is a quiet and calming place. I tell you I will recommend you and your service to everyone and let me tell you everyone I know is having to deal with just what I have gone through. So again, thank you so much!"

I'm so grateful for your help finding his new home. You made what would have been an exhausting search so much easier. I doubt I would have found Carriage Court without you. I will continue to recommend you and your services to anyone I know that may find them useful. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!"

"My mother has settled in nicely and because of you and your services. We are all a happy family again. I think she would even like to stay there for the duration. Your kindness has been greatly appreciated. "

"Thank you for all you did for my mother and our family! The Lord answered your prayer and ours when He arranged for a place for mom services to meet our needs. We are very thankful to God and to you for help in our time of need. Yes, everything has gone well with my mom, and I hope she adjusts and that her pain and health condition will be managed so she can live and enjoy each day."

"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!"

"All the info you have sent has been wonderful and extremely helpful. We have many options to give my Mom and lots of info. Thanks for all your effort and hard work, we would not have known where to begin without you. Plus, we received valuable info that we did not know about like the veteran reimbursement."

"Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. The information and advice you gave me made the search and decision much easier. My Grandparents and I visited three places this weekend and have chosen Newseasons at Mt. Arlington. The place is great and Diana and the staff are really nice. If all goes well they should move in this Friday. "

"I want to thank you for all your help. The service you provide is such a comfort. When you have a parent that suddenly cannot care for themselves there are so many decisions to make and it is nice to know there is a place to turn for professional and compassionate help. Once again thank you and God bless you."

"We have been extremely busy working on my mother's move to Country Club Heights in Woburn where she settled in yesterday. Her new apartment is just beautiful and she and her cat are doing their best to make new friends and enjoy their new home. We all feel very good about this choice as the location and personality of the place really fulfills both her needs and those of her friends and family. I can't tell you how much your calm advice and support helped me to work on this search with enough focus and information to feel confident in the decisions that had to be made."

" Thank you again for all of your time, energy and genuine concern for the placement of my grandpa. I really wouldn't have been able to get so much accomplished in such a short time without ALL of your help."

"I can't tell you how much I appreciate your assistance with placing Ruth. We are very happy with the placement and her current residence is wonderful. The staff are excellent. Unfortunately Ruth is failing quickly and the end appears to be very near. I do want to say however your service was a blessing to our family. Ruth has many times over verbalized how appreciative she is of such a wonderful place to spend her final days. Again, I thank you so very much for the service you provide, not just for myself and my family, but for those I am sure you are assisting everyday"

"MY Mom is doing well, she loves Longmeadow and can’t say enough about the staff. I have found them to be very helpful. The decision to place mom there was the right one. I thank you for all your help. It really took a lot of the pressure off me to get a list of assisted living locations in the area. A Place for Mom came at the right time. You were very sympathetic to me and never pressured me for information. Personally I do not know what I would have done without you. "

"Thank you very much for the assistance that you are giving me and my husband in this search. I did enjoy speaking with you and feel relieved to have a knowledgeable professional to guide us. I feel more comfortable now in this endeavor and hopefully better equipped to inform and support my mother-in-law at this stage in her life."

"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"

"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."

"We moved my Mom into The Gardens at Park Balboa assisted living community this weekend. Thank you for getting us started on this whole process. It really wasn't too traumatic, in large part due to your initial guidance and helpful suggestions. Thanks very much!"

"Through your help I was able to find a facility that was affordable and one that my Mom truly likes. We moved her in a little over a week ago and she is adjusting nicely.

"Thank you once again for your wonderful help and assistance with this very difficult situation. Mom is in Merrill Gardens and appears to be very, very happy about it. She misses Dad terribly but she gets much more support from her new friends than I could have ever given her. Mom participates in every single activity without any hesitation. We are still making every effort to get Dad there too. Thanks again, I could not possibly articulate how much I deeply appreciate everything you have done. "

"Thank you for asking about my mother. She is doing well and has been enjoying her new home for two weeks now. We have seen a marked difference in her for the better. Thank you for all your information and help listening to my issues with her."
