“2 thumbs up!”

"A Place for mom" was a huge asset in helping my sisters and I, when it came time for our mom to move to an assisted living home. Our representative was knowledgeable, understanding, empathetic and showed great patience. Having never been down this road before the whole process would have been agony without their guidance and knowledge. From helpful and educational emails on various topics to supplying us with a list of properties to tour, and following up questions about decisions or additional information.

“Horrible snaked”

Please don't trust these people. They are all in it together. They stole all my mother's money and promised she'd always have a place to stay. They threw her in the hospital and refused to take her back into their facility when she finally got to another facility, they starved her to death. She went from 124 pounds down to 86 pounds in one month during Covid. I wasn't allowed to visit, they killed her Do not trust them they are all in it together. They act like they want to help you and they're so sympathetic soon as they get your money you can't get in touch with them.

When my mother's ability to live independently was no longer possible, I knew we had to make a change. The first step we took was moving her closer to me, so I could look after her. Mom was not ready to move onto a facility and that was fine. Between my daughter and I, we left Omer after getting an apartment. Two years ago I moved in with mom to keep a closer eye on her. It was about that time I went online to see what kind of facilities were out there and start working towards the next step. A Place For Mom got in touch right away. I explained that our need was not immediate, but to stay in touch. I was contacted at regular intervals to see if our needs had changed. Then, about a month ago, our need became urgent. I was no longer able to care for Mom even with part time help. I got in touch with Jill and explained the situation. She listened carefully to our needs and that we had budget constraints. Thankfully, Jill located the perfect place for Mom very close to our apartment. Regency Park is beautiful, friendly and clean! Mom received excellent care. Best of all it was exactly right for our budget! I don't think I would have found this place without the help of A Place for Mom!

Reason I chose this business:

They got in touch as soon as I went online to research ALF. They faithfully stated in touch about 2 years and then I really needed their help! They came through with flying colors!

I put in my information on the Monday of Memorial Day, by Tuesday, I was in touch with Alycia who worked with me every step of the way. She gave excellent recommendations and insights, Clairified all of my confusions and misunderstandings, and sent me some articles for me as a son to help with my perspective and attitude.

Reason I chose this business:

A coworker mentioned it when I voiced concerns of my mom.

Informative; time saving for someone searching for facilities out of their primary area. Traveling 3.5 hours it was important to have good targeted facilities to review and compare.

Reason I chose this business:

Needed assistance in locating areas for my brother. I had seen tv ads and thought that I would give it a try. Don’t enjoy the perpetual emails/ phone calls but that is an inherent issue in the digital age in which we live.

I had a wonderful experience finding an assisted living facility. Dominic Gambino provided me with all of the resources needed, facility choices in my requested location, all in timely manner. The help I received from A Place For Mom really helped me find a perfect match for my mother's needs.

Reason I chose this business:

I chose A Place For Mom because of the depth of knowledge in the senior care field and the invaluable resources they have to guide you through the process of selection.

Jessica was absolutely wonderful. I cannot say enough about how much she helped myself and my mom to find a good facility. I could not have done it without Jessica and A place for mom.

You put me in touch with six facilities. I visited 5 of them. Of those, three looked excellent, one very good, and one good. I chose Rose Senior Living for Mom.

Reason I chose this business:

I don't remember - we started the process in March, and finally were ready to move in September!

I knew it was not whether my wife would need care for her severe dementia and physical infirmities, but when.
I'd been holding on with a wonderful nanny, 8 hours a day, seven days a week for about a year, and the toll on me, physically and mentally, was all of the things caregivers are told to expect.
Did some research on local facilities, and found a myriad of ALF's, nursing homes, etc.
My inquiries to some were either ignored, or I soon realized most were very high priced self sufficient places with minimal attention to the memory care area.
I'd seen some tv ads for A place for Mom, and figured I'd give them a try. Made my initial contact on line, and was promptly called by Tom Schlagel.
Wow, what a breath of relief and fresh air.
Tom went over my wife's condition in detail, and promptly, within a day, began suggesting facilities in my area and arranging appointments.
I soon separated the glitz from the reality of real memory care, and narrowing it to two, was able to place my wife in the facility I hope will suit her best.
Throughout the entire process, Tom was in contact, literally daily, and was a great sounding board.
This is probably the most difficult decision I have had to make in my life, separating from my love ot 63 years, but I could not have done it without the support of Tom and 'A place for Mom".

Suzanne was incredibly helpful scheduling tours and follow up in a stressful time for my family. If it weren't for her, my stepfather wouldn't be in an assisted living. Thank you so much.

Caroline Ventry and her assistant, Tiffanie, were so patient, knowledgable & understanding! Caroline listened to all of our concerns and assured me they would find a great place for our loved one. She saved us a lot of time researching and touring facilities that would not meet our needs and stay in our budget. She is a wealth of knowledge and such a reassuring & caring person. If and when, we need to make any changes, we will definitely call Caroline! Highly recommend her and her staff!

Reason I chose this business:

Was recommended by Northside Forsyth Hospital as well as Encompass Rehab.

I have been trying for several years to convince my mom to move into a Senior Living community. However, I was unsuccessful. In 2022 my mom took too much of her medication and accidentally overdosed, due to dementia/Alzheimers. I was given two weeks to find her a place to live. My mom is still capable of dressing and feeding herself. So I needed an assisted living community with an attached memory care unit because I know that decline is inevitable. Our family is from El Paso, TX and I live in Upstate New York so trying to handle things from afar is difficult. I contacted a place for mom because I wanted to move my mom. At first to Las Cruces, however ultimately to El Paso. Christian gave me several places in Las Cruces to consider. I checked one out, which was nice. Had a lot of things I was looking for. Then I requested locations in El Paso. Christian gave me three to start with. I went and looked at two. The second one I looked at was very nice. Had all the things I was looking for. Assisted Living, memory care and Rehab, all in one place. They had a recent vacancy and no waiting list. Since the location was ideal, the community was good, the staff seemed friendly I decided to move my mom from NM to TX.

A place for mom helped me in narrowing down a senior citizen place to live. Their list and weekly follow up helped me narrow the choice. They always had the best in mind for me.
