We are SO lucky to have found Kristy. We didn’t initially even know this service existed and couldn’t have landed with a better advisor. Kristy listened. She was honest. She took time for extra visits and conversations that she didn’t need to. Our mom is doing much better now than a year ago - and because of where Kristy helped us place her, she’s able to live in a community where the services evolve with her. The consistency is so comforting for us and our mom. During a stressful time for our family, we had no idea where to start and Kristy at Assisted Living Locators helped immensely.

Jennifer and Assisted Living locators were nothing short of spectacular. I had a very short time frame and was totally stressed out and she made everything easy. I love that she follows up with her seniors after the move. Highest recommendation- services were paid for by the facility. She even arranged for movers to move my mother’s furniture.

Jennifer was a saving grace! My parents had missed their chance to get into another independent living community they had been on the waiting list for a couple of years due to my father's increasingly significant dementia symptoms. I knew that my mom was becoming burnt out by and her health was suffering due to the stress and demands placed on her as a caregiver. Within 2 weeks of a phone call with Jennifer, she had found a beautiful place for where my dad would get the care that he needed and my parents could stay living together. Jennifer has been so incredibly patient and understanding with the rollercoaster of emotions held by me and my parents during this transition and empowered us all to make our own decisions without imposing any agenda of her own. I'm not sure how we could have made this big move without Jennifer's expert guidance, knowledge, and care. Two months later, she continues to be an accessible, reliable resource for anything from helping me clear out my parents' home to finding a real estate lawyer. Her services should should be more widely known about and I recommend her to anyone caring for aging parents!

We are very pleased with the advice and support we received from Jennifer. Right away I was comfortable talking with her about our family’s needs. She gave us the clarity that we needed to make a decision for my husband with Parkinson’s. Jennifer is knowledgeable, compassionate and understanding.

I am so glad we were referred to Jennifer to help find a memory care facility for our loved one. At our first meeting, she listened to understand what was important to us in a memory care facility. Jennifer is a very caring person. She is very supportive of family members and took the time to get to know our loved one and spend some time with him before his move in day. She has since followed up with several visits to check on him and spend time with him. You can tell she truly loves what she does!

A typical assisted living facility costs around $4,000 - $6,500 a month for 24-hour services, which consists of dining, housekeeping, and cognitive therapy. Prices can vary substantially depending on the location, living arrangement, and level of the assistance given. Our advisors are available to offer insurance coverage information and financing options as needed.

Senior centers are communities where elderly adults socialize and receive supportive services tailored to their cognitive and physical needs. They offer common areas for socializing and recreational activities, along with access to resources that promote autonomy. Basically, they provide valuable programs and connections that encourage older adults to maintain their independence and improve their quality of life.

An elderly individual's degree of autonomy is demonstrated through their capacity to complete everyday routines. More than just grooming, it includes vital skills essential for independent living, like financial management and preparing meals. These insights paint a more accurate view of where assistance is truly required and where independence can and should be maintained.

Our approach honors individual capabilities, ensuring any care plan promotes, rather than diminishes, a senior's autonomy. Discuss how we assess your family member's support level with a care advisor today.

As the saying goes, “there’s no place like home.” Luckily, with all the professional senior care options available, it’s very possible to keep your family member in the comfort of their own home while getting them the help they need. With senior at-home services, you can count on a comprehensive and individualized approach to their well-being.

These services adapt to evolving needs—all provided in your loved one's home.
