We were daunted by the over 1100 group family homes in King County and did not know where to begin in finding the right home for Mom's needs.

It wasn't a week gone by that we didn't hear from you by e-mail or cell phone. You are such a blessing to your organization and to each and every family that contact you will be blessed."

"Your service was very valuable. It is human to view a new and strange situation with some trepidation, ?where do I begin, where is information about options available.' One can get caught in inaction mode while wrestling with the starting point. Although I knew what kind of facility I wanted to place my mom, your service gave me a sense of security that the information you provided had already been vetted and culled from the long list I had accumulated by going to the 'net'. A lot of trial and error was removed from my working equation."

"Donna is the closest thing to an angel that I will ever come across in my lifetime. She can cut through the red tape and confusion like a hot knife through better. I can't say enough good about her. She is truly a caring person. I just hope that when the time comes for me to be in the situation of my father-in-law, someone like Donna is around. If she had wings, St. Peter would have a sister."

"In my past experiences, I have never received this kind of help and I am still in awe. Now, my issue is 'which wonderful home should I place Auntie Dora in?' I have met some beautiful people in this industry (thanks to you and Diana), and I'm so encouraged."

"I'd like to express my sincerest thanks for all you have done for me and my family to place Mom. 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!!!"

"Thank you so much for your call and the information you sent! Contact with you has reenergized me and helped me to refocus and see some hope in a world that seemed to be closing in with no options."

"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."

"I thank God for your warm spirit and your concern. I just want you know that I truly appreciate your time and your service and the advice you have giving to me and my sister."

"Thanks ever so much for your help. After I talked to you on the phone on Friday, I felt a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. Now, it is out of my hands."

"I don't believe we could have done this without you. I relied on you very heavily for everything and you never disappointed me. I was so overwhelmed that I don't believe I would have made much progress on my own. I think you realized my frustrations and you were able to get me through the process with compassion, kindness and the utmost professionalism. Thanking you just seems too inadequate. However I do thank you from the bottom of my heart and I thank God for you and others who do what you do."

"Thanks to you, this is all going well. When you called me that evening the first time, you were truly like an angel from heaven, bringing me valuable information at a time when I was lost. You and a Place For Mom do a wonderful job."

"Thank you for the information provided and the time you took to talk to me on the phone. At a time like this it's nice to know that there are people out there like you to hold our hands."

"Thank you so much for your help. If it were not for you and your assistance I would not have a place for my mother. You too are one of God's blessings."

"I really appreciate your help. You've been so kind and gentle, two qualities that make you very good at your job. Thank you."

"I couldn't have done this without your assistance and I want to thank you SO much!!!! You have made a stressful time a lot easier by providing me all the great information. I loved all the facilities I looked at. I will let you know how things go after Mama has had time to settle in and will certainly give anyone I know a great referral for A Place for Mom."

"Your organization does fantastic work. Thank you for your quick response to my online inquiry. 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. The information has been timely and your guidance to a local assisted care facility has given everyone peace of mind. Thank you, thank you, thank you ... you made all the difference in the world."

"Thank you very much for all of your help. I only had 1 month with my Aunt in Ohio but it was well worth it. You made the experience of locating a place for her to stay very easy. You provide an important service for people like me."

"I want to personally thank you for all you ongoing concern and support. 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."

"Margaret, thank you so much for all your assistance - I can't tell you how priceless your help has been. Because of your recommendations, I stopped worrying about dad every minute of everyday because I know he is being taken care of."

"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!"

"Thank you for the help that you have given my mother, my family and I these past several days. I will recommend your services to anyone that I know, should they be in a similar need. Thank you from my heart"

"I want to thank you for everything you've done to help me through this ordeal. At times I didn't think this would happen, even though I knew it was the best thing for her. Your advice was always welcome and needed. Your keeping in touch let me know there was someone to turn to -- Thank you!"

"I have to tell you that we were beside ourselves worrying about finding a place for my father-in-law once he was discharged from Rehab after suffering his second stroke. We wanted to find some place for him that would meet all of his needs and thanks to your organization we found the perfect location. Not only will it meet his needs, but it's lovely. I can't tell you how well we sleep at night, knowing that our Dad will have the perfect place to spend the remainder of his years with us."

"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. You are an amazing person who does their job with the utmost professionalism and listened to me rant and rave and when all was said in done in a week Ma has a place to call home. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for being there."

"I want to thank you for all the hard work you have put into finding my Aunt a place to live. I have dealt with many services but have never had the attentiveness you have shown to my Aunt.

You gave me a road map to get me to as many places as humanly possible in one day."

"I have spoken highly of you to anyone I have met who is interested. You helped a great deal in making a difficult choice easier by narrowing down and explaining the differences and benefits of each place. Thanks for sticking with me through the process"

"I want to thank you, especially Rick, for helping me find a place for my sister. It was rather difficult because there are so few homes in the Atlanta area which take Medicaid recipients, and the ones I have visited have been ?grim.' Rick was very helpful in helping me find one that was just opening up, and it is the most humane one she has been in the past eight years."

"Thanks, again, for your help and concern. It really did make the process less worrisome and intimidating, and gave us confidence that we were checking out 'all the right places.'"

"Not incidentally, neither of the person referrals came close to your organization's standards. I have already told many friends about A Place for Mom and given them your name. Thank you for your assistance in bringing peace of mind to my sister and me through the high caliber of properties you represent."

"There are no words that can express our appreciation to you for all your time and effort you have put into helping our family."

"Just a big thank you. You have helped make our lives so much better. Your patience and support are truly appreciated."

"To be honest, the most valuable component of your services was pointing us in the right direction. We haven't lived in Cincinnati all that long and weren't aware of many of the places to consider. Your continued interest also was appreciated."

"Thanks so much for your help. I know that when we spoke I truly had the deer in headlights look, but the information you shared was very helpful in finding the right direction to take with my mom. I appreciated your patience and calmness."

"I want you to know how much I have appreciated all your support and expertise through out a very stressful time in my family's lives. Your work is truly a gift to people in need."

"Thanks so much for all your support. Am glad I had a chance to know the great work you folks do."

"I believe you are sunshine for many. Thank you again for your compassion."

You saved me from all of that and I am very thankful."

"Well I can not thank you people enough at A place for mom you were a great deal of help in getting my mom into assisted living. I am pretty positive I would not have been able to do it without your assistance."

"I want to thank-you very much for all of your help with my father-n-law. I don't know what we would have done without your help. I had no idea that adult living was out there for him. Your agency provides needed service for people like us who had no idea where to turn."

"Thank you and May Heaven smile upon you! We had a difficult task ahead of us but your support, kind words and prayer truly worked."

"I very much appreciate more than anything, your attitude of wanting to help. There are people who have a job and go through the motions, but I felt you really cared to help resolve this in his best interest."

Thank you so much for your help, I could not have gotten this far without it."

"There are lots of lists online, but other than having to call ALL of them, there's no good way (without a service like yours) to wade through them and find out what's available."

"Finding you and A Place For Mom has been an absolute blessing. During the last year I immediately turned to you for assistance on several occasions and you have provided me with precious advice and guidance.

"I can't thank you enough. I am a believer in fate; things happen for a reason and something lead to your website that day and the rest is history.."

My brother and I can honestly say from the bottom of our heart "Thank You" and don't know what we would have done without you."

"It's just nice to know that you're out there helping people like us."

So thank you again, your assistance made finding a good fit for mom very easy."

"I appreciate your knowledge of all the resources available for my parents. You also have a lot of patience and a wonderful way of explaining options to seniors which can be a difficult and emotional time for them.

"Thank you doesn't say enough for your support, advice and detailed information. You lightened this care giver's load tremendously. "

"Mom is so happy at Heather Heights. Thank you for everything you did for us, from finding the best places, organizing the tours, information on estate and tag sales, movers, and the gentle but firm pushes I needed, in order to best take care of my mom. 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.

"I wanted to jot a quick note to you say thank you so much. To date, this has been the most difficult thing that I have ever experienced, but your help allowed us to find a wonderful and caring place for mom."

"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!!!"

"I wanted to thank you for your kind interaction with me during our recent conversation. It was refreshing to speak to a genuinely caring person; you were a life line that day."

"We are all delighted with the care that Lil is receiving here. She is more active, is eating well, and seems to be gaining more ability and range in her physical movements. I'm impressed with both the care and the concern that is shown to the residents here. I couldn't ask for better people to be caring for my Aunt on a daily basis. I'm deeply grateful!"

"Thank you so much for your help with finding an appropriate place for my mom. We have decided to go with The Heritage. Thank you so much for your help in this quest. You made my life so much easier!"

"My Mom is doing great, we could not be happier, she is busy every day. She loves her new friends, and looks forward to the daily activities. We could not thank you and A Place for Mom enough, for what you have done for our family. We were scared to start the whole process, not knowing what kind of facilities are out there, but our whole experience with you and A Place for Mom has been such a happy one, we could not be more pleased."

"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."

"This truly is not an easy task and I appreciate everything you are doing to help."

"I would like to express my sincere thanks for all that the staff at A Place for Mom has done for me and my Mother over the last several months. I have talked to and communicated through email, to some of the most wonderful women in Houston."

"I want to sincerely thank you for the role you have played in the chain of events, without your initial recommendation, Mom would not be where she is today. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for your caring contributions"

"Thank you for all the articles you have forwarded to me. They have definitely given me some useful information and food for thought. I do appreciate all the support you and A Place for Mom have given us."

"Thank you again for all your concern and work with the information you supplied. Without your help, I'm sure the task would have been overwhelming. I have recommended your service to others."

"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."

"Thanks to you're referral service we have successfully placed her in one of the homes you recommended. I'd like to thank you on her behalf and her family and friends. This would have been much more difficult without you're help. Thank you for everything."

"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."

"Thanks again for all your help. You minimized the time and effort it would have taken me to find a facility that was acceptable for Mom. Your time and effort are greatly appreciated!"

"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."

"Your help and advice has been invaluable to us in getting through this difficult time. I can't thank you enough. I will be sure to tell my friends about A Place for Mom and anyone else who might be in need of your services. Thank you again."

"Rob and I appreciated your helpful articles and tips. You are a wonderful listener and I feel blessed knowing I had you to turn to. You are an excellent resource and I will recommend you to friends and family needing elder care. Thanks again for being there for me and my family."

"I wanted to thank you for your suggestions and assistance in finding a place for my Dad. I would not hesitate for one minute recommending your services. I wish to thank you all for your help and appreciate everything you have done."

"Thank you so much for everything. A week ago, my mom and I were both completely lost and didn't know where to even start looking. We wouldn't be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel right now if it wasn't for your help."

"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."

"Thank you so much for all the information regarding help for my Father. You are a true blessing for my Mom and me. I truly appreciate all the information you have furnished."

"I would like to thank you for your help with placing my mom. She is doing well and seems to have adjusted very well."

"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 to personally thank you for all your assistance. You have no idea how your caring helped me during this very difficult time. Words can not truly express my appreciation for all your help...AGAIN THANK YOU."

"I don't know how to begin to thank you for all of your help. I didn't know where to start and you were there for me. They say there's a reason for everything and you and Ray meeting was God's intervention for me. Thank you, A Place for Mom!"

"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 just wanted to let you know how very grateful I am that you have contacted me regarding care for my in-laws. I appreciate so very much all of the informative e-mails you have forwarded! I realize how very challenging this endeavor will be for me, and any and all support I can receive is so welcomed! You and your agency should be commended!"

"I just wanted to give you an update. I choose The Devonshire as a new home for my father. The staff has been wonderful and I'm sure they will make the transition for my father as smooth as possible. They are also helping me make the transition. I worry too much and they have put my mind at ease. This has been a long tough road for me. I know as my father gets older he will have more needs, but I feel so much better that The Devonshire will be there to take care of him. I couldn't have done this without you and A Place for Mom."

"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."

"I just can't thank you enough for your guidance and assistance in learning what retirement homes are in our area which may assist my Dad in choosing a new home. I told him about A Place for Mom and the various responses I have received from locations around Columbia. He was quite eager to review the brochures and various emails from these retirement homes. I can't thank you enough for providing us with much information to begin this journey!"

"I want to thank you so much for your extra effort and help regarding my Mom. You do not know the relief and pressure you have lifted off of me in trying to care for my Mom. What a great organization you have and the information you provide is so valuable. Again so many Thanks - I actually am laughing and smiling already, something that hasn’t been for awhile with all the stress of caring/decisions for my Mom and keeping my life in tact through it all."

"The dust has started to settle for us and many thanks to you and your fine organization in helping us to find a place for my Dad. We decided on Alamitos West, one of which you recommended. We are all very pleased with this facility and believe this will probably be his last residence. Once again, thank you for your help and your positive Emails. They were very encouraging."

"I am comforted and blessed to have found such a truly wonderful "Place for Mom"! I count my lucky stars every night and thank you for making it possible."

"While the decisions ahead won't be easy, I have more confidence now in making the right decision for my mom. It's nice to know I have friendly, knowledgeable advocates I can tap in to."

"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."

"Thanks so much for all the info! What a wonderful time I had with everything in one place. I have had calls from Hopedale and Independence Village. I have had the opportunity to visit the hyperlinks you have provided. The online community website is super. Thanks for two productive days in my searching."

"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."

"I want you to know that the information and assistance you have shared with me has been greatly appreciated. I met with Lisa at Bridgeport Place to gather information, tour the facility, etc. Lisa was wonderful, upbeat, accommodating, understanding and most of all, she was not pushy nor did she ask any personal questions - she let me do the sharing. Your help has been invaluable to me and my family!"

"Your service was wonderful, I know I never would have been able to make this happen without you and I am forever grateful to you! I will definitely refer people to you in the future."

"Nothing but positives to say about you and the service you provide. ALA is perfect for my dad and having an RN staffing the home is a huge plus. I certainly will keep you and A Place for Mom as a good source for referrals as I encounter those with a need. Again, thank you for your assistance and service!"

"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!"

"Thank you for that encouragement. I am amazed at his improvement, he is doing better then he was a year ago. He even said last week that he wished he made the move 2 years ago! He loves the food and has gained 12lbs since moving in. He apparently is playing the piano almost daily, which people seem to love and request songs. Thank you for everything."

"Thanks for your concern. As you can imagine, we have been going and going and going. Nellie is supposed to move into her new home today. We have seen a great change in her over the last few weeks. She is so much more alert and responsive. The support groups we have met through your organization have been a true blessing. There is no way we could have acquired (or even recognized the need for) the help of all the people who will improve the quality of Nellie's new life style. I thank the Lord for sending us your way."

"Thing honestly couldn't be better with the caretaker we hired (Martha) from Caregivers America. She was a nurse in her home country of Columbia for 16 years and is really getting along well with Sergio and my soon to be mother-in-law. Martha has been helping Sergio shave, shower and takes him on walks which is something he hasn't been able to do in years. It allows for Andrea's mom to have time for herself which also hasn't happened in years. It's really been a blessing and I believe we'll be getting Martha to spend more than the 2 days per week now. I thank you again so much for lining this up "

"Things were a bit crazy; my Dad went into hypoglycemia shock. I wouldn't have been able to handle the situation without Charles our aide sent by Griswold. Dad ended up in the hospital for two days which was against the rules with Hospice but he is home doing much better and he is enrolled back with Hospice. We are all adjusting but it definitely the right place for Dad. He had a great Memorial Day afternoon on our deck with friends, chips, salsa and a beer. I will most certainly recommend you and your company to anyone needs the help."

"I wanted to let you know that my brother had a meeting at Sherwood Oaks and really liked it and I think my Dad really liked it too. My Dad's girlfriend is pleased as well since it is not too far for her either. So we are going to put him in the independent living portion of it. Thank you so much for your recommendation. I truly believe our search would have taken much longer had you not steered us in the right direction. I know God was looking out for me when I talked with you on the phone. Hope you are well and thank you again. "

"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."

"What a difference Parkview has made in his life already. I just want to thank you again for all of your help. My Dad is happy and having fun for once in a long time. I get to hang out with him more often now."

"Heidi, your continuous encouragement, clarity regarding options and caring helped me get through this most difficult time. Thank you very, very much for your support. I truly applaud your organization and the help that you provide to those of us in need. You are a terrific person to work with and I will always remember how much research, guidance and support you provided to me in trying to place my elderly father."

"I will keep in touch and will never forget your genuine kindness and the friendship over the phone that you conveyed to me; especially at such a confusing and stressful time in my life. You helped me so much in getting started and I felt secure enough to share my personal issues with you, someone that I never actually met but just a voice that emitted genuine concern. If anything changes in the near future with regard to my Mom, I will contact you again and hopefully, if that be the case once again, you will be there with your heart to guide me yet another time."

"Thank you so much for your help in finding suitable housing arrangements for my mother-in -law after she was displaced from her home due to flooding. I was extremely and pleasantly surprised by such a quick response from you and your ability to find a solution to our dilemma. I went to and toured The Rose of Waterloo immediately after your referral and was very impressed with the facility; I felt immediate relief and was so happy that you had directed me to something that seemed to meet her needs so well. Thank you again for your invaluable assistance."

"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!"

"Thanks for your help a couple of weeks ago. You were extremely helpful and the family wants me to give you their thanks. Thank you so much for your kind attention and information on which we could act. It got us off Square One!"

"Thank you.....thank you....and thank you again. I feel as if the weight of world is slowly being lifted from my shoulders. Knowing that I am not alone and that there is actually help out there for my parents is more than reassuring...it is a true gift from God. I have shared the information with my sister and brother both of who, although out of state, are trying to help as well. Know that you have made a difference in more than one life today. We are truly grateful for your help."

"I just wanted to let you know how very much I appreciate the help that you gave to me. It was nice just to have someone listen. Family does listen but disagreeing doesn't always make the situation feel good. I have counseled people in my mom's situation, but it seems impossible when it hits so close to home. Again, I thank you so much and I am very glad to know that there are people out there like you for people like me."

"I can not thank you enough for the help you have given my brother and me. With so little of my own time to look into finding a place for mom and with the extremely high cost of flying between Alaska and Michigan, your resources meant that we could be efficient and successful in our search."

"Thank you for all your time and the info you sent re. a place for my mom! You really nailed it with the two homes you recommended. It saved me so much time, and either one of them would have worked for my mom. I live in Poulsbo and it would have taken me a long time to sift through places on my own. You saved me all that leg work & now my mom can move in right away."

"Thanks to you and your company Mom is just fine, FINALLY! I checked on her today and she is making much progress arranging her room (with a little help from me and my family), and things are beginning to settle into a routine of sorts. All things considered, this is the best possible solution we could ever have hoped for. You did a great job."

"Thanks for all your help. It was a bit of a rough start for mom, moving from Minneapolis to St Paul. After a short return visit to her house this past weekend, she wanted to get back to her "home" at Walker. And she is so happy that the staff in the dining room knows her name and she is making friends."

"Thanks for all your help. We pass on your name and A Place for Mom to everyone that we meet. You’re our greatest asset through this difficult situation."

"! 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!"

"Thank you so much for your help. I could not have done it with out you. You are my angel. I hope some day I can thank you in person."

"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."

"I just wanted to let you know everything has worked out so well with the new place! My dad is so happy there! I couldn't believe how easy you made everything! I have been telling everyone I know about you and A Place for Mom- we'll all need it eventually!"

"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."

"Your service that you do cannot be measured in words and thanking you seems so small in comparison to the valuable work that you do."

"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!"

"Thanks so much for calling today! I already feel better about getting my uncle what he wants and needs. You and your company are angels."

"Thanks for all your help. You were a blessing. Mom moves in on Saturday. I will keep in touch with you to let you know how it is going."

"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!"

"I just wanted to let you know that my family is so appreciative and thankful for all the kind efforts of Glenda. She is a God send to us; she always went out of her way to make the transition for Mommy to each facility as easy as something like this could be."

"I just wanted to thank you for all your assistance in getting a "Place for My Mom". She has been placed at Golden Living Center- Stenton. I slept through the night last night for the first time in over 8 months knowing my mother was safe and sound."

"My mother is adjusting quit well to NHC Place. I do not think that she would have adjusted as quickly to any other facility. She likes the people there and the surroundings. I do appreciate the work that you did for everyone; it certainly relieved a lot of stress for everyone involved. I will certainly not hesitate in referring anyone I know needed your assistance to give them your name and email address. Again thank you for everything."

"My mom is SO happy at Heritage Pointe. She has made friends and had a pretty easy move. Still a few things left to do but she has only 2 boxes left to unpack. She raves about the food and service. Everyone has been so nice to her and she's already feeling at home. I was so pleasantly surprised by all this. I thought the transition would be more difficult."

"You have really been a major help in finding resources for my mom and dad! I thank my lucky stars that I came across your web site aplaceformom.com! I appreciate the information that you sent me on the Senior Centers, and I will take your advice and your own personal experience to gently guide my father into getting involved with other senior citizens. Again, many thanks for your help and your concern!"

"I can’t tell you how much I truly appreciate your help and support. We are so excited to go to Phoenix next week and bring Dad home. I’ve told him about Rod and the home he is moving into but I’m sure he thinks I’m pulling the wool over his eyes. Thanks again for all of your caring and support. It means a lot."

"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."

"Just wanted to take a minute and say thanks for all of your help over the last few weeks. My mom settled into Sunrise and everything went very well. The information you were able to provide really helped in my research in trying to find the best facility for my mom. It's a wonderful service that you and your group provide"

"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 wanted to let you know how successful the move has been for my mother. She has gone from a hospital environment to a warm and caring home environment and I have your services to thank for that."

"Honestly, I don't know what I would have done if it wasn't for your organization and your help in assisting me through this challenging time. The service A Place for Mom provides is invaluable. Without it I would not have been able to find a place in which my dad felt comfortable and happy. You went above and beyond the call in assisting me, and I am forever grateful."

"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."

"We will be moving Mom and I am very excited about having her so close to me so I can see her 3-4 times a week, instead of being limited to once every week or two. Thank you for all of your assistance--you certainly know your business!"

"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."

"I am so grateful for your help. I cannot believe how quick you were to respond to my initial e-mail. It most definitely got the ball rolling for our family. Thank you so much."

"I so appreciate your assistance and kindness in helping me with what has been a very emotional experience."

"It’s very sad what this destructive disease does to those who suffer from it, but thankfully there are skilled nursing facilities like Cedarbrook to care for our loved ones Thanks again Jessica for being there for us and for all your help. It has meant a great deal to us!"

"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."

"Wendy, please let me give you a sincere thank you at this time. I don't know if I ever would have thought to call a place like this. What a positive this has turned out to be - so many people have to move their parents "unwilling' and I feel lucky, and so very grateful to you for calling me so quickly and setting me up with places that fit our needs."

"Thank you again for the support and concrete help. What a gift you have been to me. Thank you for providing families with such an important service in such a loving way."

"Your help was instrumental in finding Hampton Meadows and placing my mother. I cannot thank you enough."

"Thanks for all your support and just listening to me. I do enjoy talking with you. I feel you are truly my friend even though I have never met you."

"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."

"I just wanted to tell you how grateful I and my family are for your having been there if for no other reason than to give advice during our time of crisis with my brother-in-law. I can't even begin to imagine just how difficult your job must be dealing with families in crisis on a daily basis. Evening just making one phone call to say, "How is everything going..." you are quite possibly the only phone call of that nature that a family may receive that week or for that matter at all! I'm sure that when these families are in these situations and they see no light at the end of the tunnel you are their light."

"Thank you for standing with us during this difficult time; we appreciate your support and excellent advice."

"My mom is adjusting as well as or maybe better than we hoped. My family loves the place and we are happy she is in a safe, clean apartment. It's very convenient for us to stop in and visit, and we know she is getting good meals, even if she doesn't participate in anything else. You were a big help in giving us the names of places and I checked them all out, so I feel I chose the best place for her. I would highly recommend you to anybody that is in the situation I was in."

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

"I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your help. When this crisis first occurred I had no idea who to contact and for that matter I had no idea where to even start. Once I contacted you it was so easy. You are truly a one stop shop when it comes to care giving. I have told not only my aunt about you I have told everyone I know that when the time comes to care for parents and relatives the only call they need to make is to A Place for Mom."

"I would like to thank you for all the time and effort you have put into placing my father, the awesome knowledge you have on the elderly and the programs available to help with the costs of eldercare. With the VA Aids and Attendance Benefit you referred to us, I didn't have to stress or feel like I was wasting my time finding the right care home. Now we can afford what my father needs and when his level of care changes and the cost rises, we no longer have to worry or move my father again."

"I had a good night’s sleep thanks to you. You are very good at your job…making things easy for families and friends who have to make difficult decisions. I will keep the good communication flowing and let you know how I make out. God bless you."

"Thank you very much for your kind words and thoughts.....keep up the good work and please know that I will always be an advocate of your services."

"After a couple of false starts and untold pain and grief, I can now report that my mom moved in to Heritage Pointe today. The journey to this point has taken 15 months, and I am emotionally drained but happy with the outcome. Thank you for the help you have given us. We would never have gotten to this point without your assistance."

"The latest news is that my mother has agreed to go to assisted living. The nice thing about this facility is that they have assisted living on the first floor then skilled nursing care on the 2nd and 3rd floor. There is a primary care physician in the front section of this community and since I needed to get a new doctor for my mother anyway, it all seemed to come together. You were a big help in this process. And yes, the communities/facilities you sent me were helpful too. Many of them contacted me by phone or email and they were very nice. Truly, again I want to thank you for being there for me. You were calming and caring as well as being a good listener when I needed one. I can't tell you how much it meant to me to have your support."

"I can't thank you enough for all the help you have given us. Even though our need is no longer urgent it will be needed in the future and we can be prepared. Your sincerity, listening and calm demeanor helped me get myself under control in a very tense situation. Thank you and God bless you."

"Thank you, the help is greatly appreciated. You have taken a lot of our troubles and stress away from my family and I."

"I would like to thank you once again for all your help in finding placement for my dad. You did a wonderful job and it took a load off me. It's good to know that there are people and places that are here to help in a time like this. You couldn't have done a better job. I will always keep A Place for Mom in mind so that if I know of someone that needs help in finding a place for their Love one. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, continue to be a blessing to others, because you are truly a blessing to me and my family."

"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."

"I am pleased to inform you that we have decided to place Dad with Gerry at Genesis Manor. We feel that this will be the best fit for everyone concerned. Thanks so much for all of your assistance and information; it has truly been a blessing to our entire family to have you onboard."

"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."

"Thank you and A Place for Mom for everything. Without you I don't know that we would have found this place. My Mom is so excited to get moved and relax from the burden of a house and yard and everything that goes with it. "

"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."

"My father is doing well making his transition from skilled nursing back to assisted living. The location you found allows him freedom while also takes care of dining and cleaning, all while still in our budget! I am so thrilled and cannot thank you enough for helping me through yet another transition-move for my dad. I have recommended your service and care to everyone I know."

"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."

"I wanted to thank you so much for the information you compiled for me on Alzheimer’s group homes for my mom. I was amazed at how fast you sent the info after our initial phone call! And everything was so detailed and helpful. I wanted to let you know how impressed I am with the service you provided through A Place for Mom. You helped us put an end to a 2 year dialog in our family on where and how we could transfer Mom’s care. When I called my sister about the Warner house, she laughed and said I sounded “positively giddy” – and I was. I know no place is perfect, but my intuition is that we found one of the best – thanks to you."

"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 send a big thank you for all you have done to help Vicki, my father, and me and especially my grandmother. Your research and recommendations made this daunting task easy and efficient. This week, my father, grandmother, and I visited five living communities that you recommended. We were fortunate enough to dine in three of them, thanks to your arrangements. Yesterday, we gave a deposit on a sweet studio apartment with a lovely patio at Crosswood Oaks. Although all of the communities we visited were delightful, Crosswood Oaks fits my grandmother's needs to perfection. And even though she is still getting used to the idea of moving and changing her life, which she realizes is the best for her at this time, she was impressed with the community and the various smiling and welcoming residents in the lounges and hallways. I think this new page of her life will be colorful and life-altering (exactly what she needs) and I thank you for making this a reality. I am grateful to you for all that you have done for us. You are making the world a colorful place and people's lives rich, full, and safe."

"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. "

"My experience with A Place for Mom has been wonderful and I can't think of a thing you could have done differently. You were there at a very difficult time and helped us through some things we've never thought we would deal with and didn't have a clue about. I really appreciate your help and support so much!"

"I simply wanted to write and say Peggy with A Place for Mom has truly kept me sane. My mother’s situation left me feeling helpless when she had a heart attack and I was told she would need 24/7 care. She had not done any planning for this situation and I was left trying to find the right place for her within her budget constraints and I didn’t know where to begin. Peggy spoke to me on the phone for a very long time. She was gentle and concerned and she has been there ever since via email and phone even on the weekends. Your service is a God send and I feel fortunate to have a person like Peggy to help me."

"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."

"Thank you so much for the update and information. We could never have done all this without your quick response and help."

"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 wanted to thank you for all of the work you did for me in finding a place for my dad. He’s been at Winterhaven for over a week now and we are thrilled with the facility. Carrie has bent over backwards to make the transition as smooth as it possibly could be. My dad is adjusting. It is not easy for any of us – as you know – but at least we know that he is safe, secure and being taken care of. If you ever need a reference for A Place for Mom or for yourself personally, call on me. Your calmness, your efficiency and your manner of professionalism mixed with personal compassion was exactly what I needed. Thank you again for all you did to help us in this very stressful situation!"

"I’ve been thinking of you! You have just been an absolute God-send to me and my family during my Mom’s time of need. We tried so hard to keep her at home with us and after seeing the tiny things popping up she would do from time to time we knew it was time to place her somewhere for her own safety. The Azalea Gardens that you recommended to me is such a nice, comfortable, caring place for Mom to be. With Mom’s condition of Alzheimer’s she will NOT be getting any better with memory. At least I can concentrate at work more now that I know Mom is in a “better place”, she’s at Azalea Gardens thanks to you!"

"I can't thank you enough for your assistance and your caring responses to my white-knuckled search for an appropriate place for my mother. Mom is SO glad to be back in Michigan. I know "it's your job" but I hope you hear from others what a great assist it is to have a quick and invested responder dive in to help in this confusing and emotionally loaded task."

"I want you to know how pleased I am with the facility - Clare Bridge - you helped me find for my dad. He had been in assisted living in another state but his Alzheimer's was increasing and that facility could no longer meet his needs. Your list of local memory care facilities allowed me to check out and find what I believed would be most suitable for my dad. In addition, the list you provided of observations to make when touring potential sites made the process easier for me. When faced with a decision as important as managing a parent's welfare, it is great to feel confident that I made the right choice. I want to thank A Place for Mom for providing the assistance to make this important decision."

"The place you recommended looks perfect. This place has a view of the water. They have fountains (small ponds) in the yard which would be very peaceful and a vegetable garden. Orchids are all over the house so mom would love that and her room has a view of the Sound. They document everything. The menu is very healthy and the place is as clean as can be. The nurse there is very kind too and would be ideal for mom." So Colleen, I think you have done it again!!! Found a place for mom!! We can't thank you enough!"

"Mom is getting a little better about being there. You were the perfect person to help us. I have told my friends that have parents with Alzheimer’s to contact a place for mom. I couldn't have done this with out 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!"

"I had a gut feeling from the first time we spoke that you "had a heart and cared." This was a lonely battle until you came along. But thanks to you, my husband and I signed an agreement this afternoon for a loft apartment in The Virginian, for my brother. I can't tell you how relieved and comfortable my husband and I feel about all of it."

"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."

"We made the big move for Mom and Dad last weekend. My husband, Jim and I were over there yesterday afternoon and they seem to be adjusting to their new surroundings very well. I can't say enough about Catherine at Elim Shores. She is genuinely a caring person and so helpful. I think we made the right choice for Mom and Dad and appreciate all the help A Place for Mom was in us finding Elim Shores."

"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!"

"Thanks to you and the wonderful people at Brittany House, mom is really doing great. There has been so much peace in my soul since she moved in that a friend said she could see it on my face. A Place for Mom was just what I needed at the right time and was more than I could have hoped for. Every question was answered, a wonderful selection was offered, and everyone I spoke with was very kind and helpful. Everything was done with the best of intentions to help in finding just the right place for my mom and I couldn't be more pleased."

"Dad moved into The Village and the transition has gone better than I could have imagined. He is really thriving. He is more stimulated and carries on more conversations with me. He willingly participates in so many activities. I feel confident that he is eating well, being mentally engaged and enjoying the company of his contemporaries. I feel a huge sense of relief! Thank you!"

"Mom is settled in and everything seems to be going well. The move went surprisingly well, including the 9-hour car ride. The staff at Greenville Place have all been wonderful and very helpful. Your help in identifying places for me to investigate was terrific!"

"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."

"Many thanks! We are transfering mother to Brittany House. My family and I are very pleased. You have saved time and money I could not have done it without your help. "

"Just a quick note to add an additional thanks to your help in finding a home for my Mom. She has been there almost two months now. St. Philomena's has proved to be the perfect place for her. I have NEVER witnessed such compassion and care unless someone is caring for their own parent. I really feel that God was guiding me when I was given a brochure regarding your services."

"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!"

"You and your service were truly a life saver for our family. You helped to find the perfect home for John's mom and total piece of mind!"

"How can I ever thank you for all the information? A Place for Mom has been so wonderfully supportive and I am so thankful fo you."

"I sincerely appreciate your excellent services. I have appreciated your on-going contact and found your emails very helpful. You provide an excellent service to families. My sincere thanks!"

"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."

"I can't think of anything else you could have done and I would certainly recommend family & friends to contact you for assistance. You are personable and easy to work with. When a person doesn't know where to turn, it's wonderful that "A Place for Mom" [and Dad] is easily accessible. Thanks again, for all your help."

"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."

"I just wanted to let you know that I was able to get my Dad placed at Richfield Health Center yesterday! It never would have happened without your help! I want you to know that my family and I are TREMENDOUSLY grateful to you for the work that you do! I know you probably chalk it up to another day at work, but you really do change the lives of people with your knowledge and compassion for others, and it is really appreciated! Thank you, thank you, thank you! "

"Again, you have saved the day! Golden Living Center in Edwardsville is going to take him on Wednesday. I appreciate all the effort that you have given Mr. Hayes. Thank you so very much. This is a very wonderful program that you have and I hope it always continues."

"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."

"My mother moved into Legacies/Evergreen about two weeks ago and I am quite pleased with things, so far. Thank YOU for helping me find this nursing home; I had been completely unaware of it before you called. "

"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. "

"Thanks for all of your help. My grandma is really doing great at Summerville. You were such a big help to us."

"Words can't describe the appreciation that I have for what you did for me. You were really the only person who totally understood what I was going through and what I was trying to do."

"The transformation in Gertrude has been amazing. She is doing great at Autumn Meadows. The staff is wonderful. We are so fortunate to have been able to make Autumn Meadows her new home. Your help in accomplishing this has been truly outstanding. We would not have known where to start if it wasn’t for your help."

"Mom really likes it at Ohana Gardens. She is very happy with the staff and other residents. She likes the walks they take with her. It puts my mind at ease knowing that she is getting such good care. Thank you!"

"There are no words to express the level of appreciation I have for the service you provided in helping me find a place for my mother. Your caring way of offering and guiding us through this painful process will forever be remembered by me and my sisters."

"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."

"Mom really likes her new place. I went to visit her today and she said the caregivers are very nice and they take her out to exercise. She is very happy there. It is such a relief to finally not have to worry about Mom and how she is being treated. Thank you so much!"

"You have helped us both tremendously during the time that we were beginning to look for a place for Dad. I truly did not know where to start. And you saved me hours of research, phone calls and visits by telling me which places would be able to care for Dad and his needs. I appreciated you contacting the homes and having them call me. It took a lot of the pressure off of me."

"The service you provide to all of us is outstanding. When we were trying to find answers to questions about decisions for the care of a loved one and we didn't know where to turn, there you were with the answers. "

"We appreciate all of the support and resources you supplied during this very difficult time and will refer anyone in need in the future to your organization. Thank you for your compassion during this process."

"Thank you for all your help. It is so nice to know there are caring people like you out there to help. We will certainly keep you in mind when it becomes necessary to put her in a nursing home long term."

"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!"

"Thank you for all your time this morning in assisting us in finding our Mother a nursing facility. We would have been lost without your help."

"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!"

"I wanted to thank your organization for what it does, and especially commend you for the over-the-top assistance, support, and guidance provided in our search and transition. Six months ago, we were barely realizing the realities and challenges of my mom's memory loss condition. We had no clue as to how to go about identifying and evaluating prospective community solutions. Our situation was even more complicated due to the fact that my dad insisted on being able to stay with my mom through the transition, even though he is in "good" condition. After connecting with you, listening to your advice, experiences, suggestions and recommendations, we moved my folks from their old home of 52 years into their "new" home. Definitely an adjustment for all, but they are doing quite well and so is the rest of the family. Thank you!"

"I can't thank you enough for the time you spent with me and your words of wisdom. At a time when I was entering an unknown world, your guidance was invaluable and allowed me to make intelligent choices regarding my mother. I can't think of anything more that you could have done for me. You always returned my calls right away (even on Sunday), when I was desperate for information and advice. You were able to explain the ways of the hospitals, nursing homes, insurance, etc. Again, thank you...I don't know what I would have done without you."

"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! "

"I would never have been able to do this without you. You not only helped with endless searches, but also with the emotional aspect. Dealing with the guilt was very hard, but your advice, knowledge, and concern for the best solution helped more than you can imagine; not to mention, all the family related issues you helped with. You have really touched our lives in such a wonderful way. THANK YOU SO MUCH! "

"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."

"It has been a week now that my mom has been at Sunrise. The care managers really give the residents individual attention. My brother and I are very happy that you led us to Sunrise. Thank you very much!"

"My family and I are eternally grateful for you and your services. Mom was admitted into the nursing home you referred. Your service has been a godsend. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. "

"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."

"To the wonderful people at A Place for Mom, I wish that we could give more than words of appreciation to Place for Mom! Thank you so much for the wonderful service that you provide for people in need! You were an answer to prayers that we hadn't even thought to pray!"

"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"

"Thanks so much for all of your help. It was very much appreciated and made this difficult process a lot easier to deal with."

"You were such an important part of my being able to help and take care of Elaine in the way she deserved! Had it not been for you and your compassionate response to my request, I would have never found a home care option. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I hope that you don't mind that I freely give your contact info - usually with the disclaimer that you were a lifesaver - as many of my friends are facing the same challenges with their parents. Again, my thanks - you made a wonderful difference in our lives."

"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. "

"I cannot thank you enough for all of your help. I know I would have hit bottom soon if I had not been told about you. I cannot thank you enough."

"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. "

"Thank goodness for a Place for Mom. I feel much better knowing that my Mom is safe in a memory care unit that is more like a home. I strongly recommend A Place for Mom."

"Mom is very happy. It is coming up on the anniversary of my Dad's passing and she is feeling it, but we are all here to help her through it. I am so grateful for all the help you gave me in the past two to three years. Your information and responses were phenomenal and I would recommend you personally to anyone. Thanks again."

"I can’t imagine searching for senior housing options without A Place for Mom! You responded to our request for help immediately, and gave us great places to visit, each a little different, allowing us to compare and look for strength and weaknesses. So, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I would highly recommend you to any of our friends who need help finding elder care."

"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."

"Because of problems with my father, I contacted A Place For Mom, and our local representative, contacted me immediately. She has been very helpful with my father's problems. We may have finally found the very best place for him, and I'm sure we could not have done it without the help of A Place For Mom. So, thanks for your great organization!"

"I want you to know how much I have appreciated your counsel and advice in our search for Alzheimer’s care over the past two years. We started this journey without any idea how to manage through it. With your help, the many articles and books I read, and just patience and God's help, we were able to provide for my mom in ways we did not expect. Thank you so much for your constant support."

"After speaking to you on the phone yesterday, I knew that I had struck gold. I could tell immediately that you were a caring and organized person that would find us exactly what we were after. My mother and I have explored one of the residential care homes and it is perfect! Thank you, thank you, and thank you. You have no idea what a blessing you have been and a relief to our entire family."

"Dad is at his new nursing home and everything is great! He actually knows a number of staffers there and was quite happy to see them. In fact, I heard him sing for the first time in a very long time. Your assistance was invaluable and I cannot say enough about A Place for Mom's involvement. What a wonderful service. Rest assured that everyone I know will hear about my experience."

"Thanks for being so caring and helpful. I have tell everyone that I meet about your website. As for my mother, she is hanging in there. Thanks again for your support. "

"Thanks for the follow up! I never would have learned about my mom's new home if it weren’t for you."

"I appreciate your help and guidance in identifying and qualifying potential alternative facilities that could deal with my sister’s special needs. Your guidance made the relocation as painless as possible for me, and I know her situation is greatly improved."

"I deeply appreciate all of your assistance in finding a nursing home for my father. You were actually the only person that listened and did anything to help me. Thanks again for listening!"

"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! "

"It is so nice to know that there is someone who knows what you are going through and doesn't judge you for your feelings and your frustration. You did that for me and I thank you. 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. "

"My sister is doing very well, thank you for asking. She is confused as to where she is at and why she is there, but I think she will adjust over time. I would definitely refer A Place for Mom (Sister) to anyone in need of your service. Thanks again for all your help. "

"I do not know what I would have done without the resources available from you and a Place for Mom. Your advice and connections helping me find an Alzheimer’s community made an overwhelming, nearly impossible task practical with minimal difficulty. My experience with you and your caring empathic manner was more than I could have ever hoped for and is truly appreciated."

"Things are working out well for Mother at the residential care home. The best part about the “A Place for Mom” service was that you were there to help and get answers for us. Your prompt replies kept us from getting nuts with worry. Thank you for all your help. I tell everyone about your service!"

" 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!"

"On my own, I placed my mother in three different facilities which involved a 430 mile move from Southern California to Northern California. I really needed help! A Place for Mom provided me with all the contacts I needed (and hand-holding along the way) to find a lovely residential care home that is a perfect fit. As a result of going "the extra mile," my dear mother is now happily settled in her new home, near to my new home in Northern California."

"You provide a wonderful service. I'm sure anyone who goes through this, including me, appreciates the kind words, hard work and follow-up that A Place for Mom offers!"

"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 don't know what state we would be in without the advice and connections you have given us. Everyone I speak to about my grandmother, I tell how you changed my grandmother's future. If only more people knew about A Place for Mom. Thanks!"

"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."

"My family and I can not thank you enough for you assistance in finding a facility for my mother in-law. I am so happy I was given your name and number for help. After all the anguish we have been through in the past few weeks it is such a great feeling to know there is such a wonderful person like you and a wonderful program like A Place For Mom out there to assist people like us. My mom in-law has a place that is safe and we owe it all to you and A Place For Mom. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!"

"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."

"A Place for Mom offers a great deal of resources that help people during these tough decision making times. Thank you so much! Mom is to be discharged on Friday. I hope and pray this will be a better experience for us and that this bed remains open. I know God is in this and he is looking out for my Mom. Thanks again."

"I want to thank you for all your help. I don't know what I would have done with out you. Your service is very needed and we are blessed to have you on our side. It's hard enough to place a loved one in some one else hands but you helped to make the search easier. Thanks again!"

"Honestly, we couldn't have done this without you. There is so much information out there that it is hard to weed out inappropriate choices without a "guided tour." Even more important, the ability to bounce ideas and refine our decision parameters is just invaluable. You all are a god send, and I have recommended your service to others that I work with, knowing that some of them could use help today, and some of them will need help in the future."

"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."

"Thanks again for all your help. It’s amazing how much more in control I feel – that things will work out – after our conversation. Your knowledge and experience are just what I needed!"

"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. "

"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.

Much to my surprise you both called & e-mailed me within a day."

"Mom's doing great at Sunset Ridge. Maria and her husband James are the best. We couldn't have asked for a better situation suited for her and her needs."

"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."

"Grandma is adjusting to her new environment. She would rather be at home with us, but she is receiving excellent care at Whispering Oaks. Much better care than she had at home with us. We are so grateful to have found a place for her so close to our home and to have the peace of mind that she is being cared for."

"Your organization has been invaluable to me as a long distance relative, I cannot say enough about what a terrific resource you have been.

He's growing stronger every day and although I know there is not a happy ending for him, I am very confident that he is getting the best care possible and I am personally relieved that he is living in the more home-like style of assisted living. I can't thank you enough for the help you were to me. I was in total panic mode and within minutes you had names and numbers for me to call and the advice you gave was incredible. "

"You have been a great help. Kind, caring and concerned every step of the way. You made everything so much easier on me, I couldn't have done it with out you, nor did I know about all the options out there. You will be highly recommended by me. I can't wait to meet you and give you a big hug."

"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."

" Thank you so much for the information that you provided to us. Also, I wanted to thank you for the time you spent with me on the phone this morning, you were very knowledgeable and helpful."

"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 would not be able to say how extremely helpful your advice and information you have given me has been to me! I would not have even thought about the Heartlands for my parents and it is such a great place for them to live! You could not have done any more and it has been great corresponding back and forth with you!"

"Thank you very much for all of your help on this matter. You have made my life a whole lot easier in making a necessary decision for my mother's needs. As mentioned earlier, people that provide this much needed service are worth their weight in GOLD!! Thank you very much for your prompt attention to my e-mail and the quick call back with references."

"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."

"My mom loves this place. It feels like a Bed and Breakfast - cozy, personalized attention, good food and company. She plays games, etc. with the caregivers and a few of the residents. She's finally found her niche. She has been a very angry person most of her life, and now she seems to have found some inner peace. Thanks for taking part in her evolution."

"In all respects, your service has been extremely helpful. I cannot imagine working through our situation without your help. You were always there - compassionate, empathetic, knowledgeable, professional."

"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!"

"Thank you for all your help with finding a place for my mom. I cannot put into words how grateful I am to you and for all of your hard work.

"I am very appreciative of the help you have given me regarding finding a place for my Dad. It was wonderful having a resource that could give me not only names, contact numbers and directions, but also feedback from other people who had visited each facility. I can pop in there whenever I want to on my way home from work or before work. It is indeed a great relief for me. You were knowledgeable, supportive and you never failed to follow up. I would say that you did a great job. "

"Bob is slowly adjusting to Carriage Court. I feel confident that he is in the right place. It is evident that everyone really cares and truly enjoys being with the residents. 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!"

"I want to thank you for all your hard work and most importantly, your support. I really would have been lost without you. Mom is having a few (itsy,bitsy) second thoughts, but for the most part is feeling very positive about the move--a far cry from where we were a month ago. "

"I want to thank you once again for all of your help with finding the perfect place for my Mother. You were able to zero in on what I wanted and did not want in a residence for my Mom.

"I would like to take this time out again to thank you for your prompt and courteous response! I would like to offer you my gratitude for the info that you gave to me in regards to helping me find assisted living for my "God-Mother". I truly did not know where to begin and I am thankful for you (the organization and the website) for "guiding my steps." May you to continue to be blessed and be able to assist in giving blessings."

"I would like to say thank you so much for helping us find Family Choice. We are so happy my father is at such a wonderful place. After looking at the other "facilities" I knew he would never be happy nor would he thrive in that type of environment. The caretakers at Family Choice are fabulous. We were so overwhelmed with everything when all this hit us. It was so nice to have you to help guide the way. Many many thanks to you. "

"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.

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."

"On behalf of my father, family and myself I would like to thank and commend you in the outstanding manner in which you provided me with assistance in my time of need; you displayed an excellence, technical competence and professionalism that was unequal. Without your advise and assistance my father would not be in the environment which he now finds himself, an environment of love and care. Thank you and A Place for Mom for all that you have done for my family and all that you will do for other families in the future."

"Thanks so much for all you have done for both of my parents. Joan is hopeful and relaxed and confident about Ambrosia Gardens; it makes all the difference in the world."

"Thank you so much for your help. I have chosen Welcome Home Senior Residence for my mom. It is only 10-15 minutes from my home and it was better than I ever expected. I took Mama there and she fell in love with the caretakers and there is a gentleman there who will be available to walk with her in the mornings. Her room is small but we can bring many of her things to make it her own. I was frantic until you stepped in to help, and for that I am eternally grateful. I have told everyone I know about your wonderful help."

"I want to take time to thank you for all the information that you have sent and for all that you have done for us. We have found a place for my Mom to stay at Lake Cumberland Regional Hospital in an extended care facility. Again I want to thank you very much"

"The counsel and suggestions that you provided were excellent in helping us make a decision for my mother. The idea that you knew about various places and whether or not they would be accessible and/or available for my mom was invaluable. Thank you. "

"Betty is doing great and we thank you and the services you provide. We have her in a very great facility and things could not be better. We have recommended your services to many of our friends and have told them about the great experience you created. Thanks again and hopefully we will not need you anymore."

"I want to thank you for all of your support in helping me secure a place for my sister. I appreciate your follow through and compassionate words of encouragement. I was so stressed before I made contact with you. I thank God for sending me to you. I can't tell you how much of a relief it has been."

"I just wanted to say THANK YOU for ALL your help and referrals – I have already told a bunch of people about “A Place For Mom” and will continue to do so. Without you this would have taken a lot longer! Thanks again for everything."

"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!"

"Thanks to you I have a place to live. Since I talked to you I have been very busy packing and getting ready to move into my brand new home . The movers come tomorrow and I'll be in my new apartment tomorrow night! Can't believe it myself. Thanks to you I will have roof over my head and my treasures will not be thrown on the curb."

"Just a quick note to let you know Mom is settled into Clare Bridge at Silver Lake and my Dad is in Las Vegas with my brother Freddie. He sounds very rested and happy. Mom is going to take a little longer due to her dementia, but we love the place and the people! I could never begin to thank you enough for all you have done for my family. As soon as the dust settles I will touch base again."

"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."

"Thank you so much for your valuable input on skilled nursing facilities. My brother and I visited The Forum at Desert Harbor and were very impressed with the facility. In fact, we decided right then and there that this was the right place for Mom! Again, thank you for your assistance. "

"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."

I am so fortunate to be able to place my husband in the Loving Arms Residential Care in Norwalk. The transition went smoothly and my husband is very content in his new home. We are truly blessed. "

"I have just finalized all the paper work in order to place my mother and father at Madison Center. I can't thank you enough. This would not have been accomplished without your help. Madison center is the perfect place for them. All of the people there have been extremely helpful."

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"

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"

"Your continuous encouragement, clarity regarding options and caring helped me get through this most difficult time. Thank you very, very much for your support. I truly applaud your organization and the help that you provide to those of us in need."

"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."

"I appreciate all the help you have given me. You certainly have made my job easier."

"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. I am sure you can imagine how tough it can be on a family who is attempting to help a loved one who is aging. We feel blessed that we found you to help us through this difficult time."

"My mom really likes Seasons in Montclair and has decided that this is the place. Thanks for all of your help and I'll definitely refer you to my friends that may need assistance."

"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. "

"The staff at Pembrooke are extremely compassionate and caring, every single one of them. I could not have taken care of all this so quickly if it wasn't for you, thank you so much and God Bless."

"Mom is doing fine. She is becoming more familiar with things and is adjusting to the daily schedule that she much needed. This whole transition has been much easier than we had ever anticipated. I tell everyone about what a great service you provide for people with this difficult decision in front of them. Not only did you help us find a suitable place, offer good advice on what to look for when we toured, you also provided an understanding ear at a time when we needed someone the most. I could not ask for anything more. You were terrific and I will never ever forget about A Place for Mom."

"We are most grateful to you for the prompt, courteous, efficient and personable service. The past 16 months have been quite a journey for us and the toll it's taken has been far greater than ever imagined it would be. Although it has been such a challenging time, we have also experienced the joy of reunion between father and daughter and that is priceless. Thank you so very much for your empathetic and amiable assistance!"

"Thank you very much! Your help this weekend was invaluable. I had contacts today from several places and will be able to place Elinore in a safe environment as soon as the end of the week – thanks to you. We truly appreciate your efficiency and your kindness. We will pass the word about your company to others in need."
