With over 160 licensed senior assisted living facilities in Sonoma County, how do you go about determining which is the best for your loved one? So many questions need to be answered and the research required to answer them can be an overwhelming task:
• Is the community well-managed?
• Is it staffed for the type of care my loved one needs?
• What is the core philosophy beh
ind the care?
• What kind of insurance does it accept?
• What are the living quarters like?
• Does it offer activities my loved one will enjoy?
• Is the environment one in which my loved one will feel comfortable, safe, respected, happy, and cared for? In 2000, after asking myself these very same questions while going through this painstaking process alone, I finally found just the right care my mother needed. My lifelong passion for helping seniors suddenly turned personal – and marked a pivotal point in my professional life. More recently, I was the marketing director for a large assisted living community in Sonoma County. The deep understanding that comes from first-hand experience has shaped my work and my mission: to guide you through the process of placing your loved one in the right senior assisted living community. I have visited and evaluated every community that I recommend, and offer my services at no cost to you or your loved ones. My goal is to help make this transition in your family life a more positive one.
