Senior Placement Services Relocation service for seniors needing assisted living. In 2005, I became certified in Senior Peer Counseling and later a certified RCFE Administrator.

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.

This was from years ago but oh so poignant!

My dear girl, the day you see I'm getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I'm going through. If when we talk, I repeat the same thing a thousand times, don't interrupt to say: "You said the same thing a minute ago"... Just listen, please. Try to remember the times when you were little and I would read the same story night after night until you would fall asleep.

When I don't want to take a bath, don't be mad and don't embarrass me. Remember when I had to run after you making excuses and trying to get you to take a shower when you were just a girl?

When you see how ignorant I am when it comes to new technology, give me the time to learn and don't look at me that way ... remember, honey, I patiently taught you how to do many things like eating appropriately, getting dressed, combing your hair and dealing with life's issues every day... the day you see I'm getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I'm going through.

If I occasionally lose track of what we're talking about, give me the time to remember, and if I can't, don't be nervous, impatient or arrogant. Just know in your heart that the most important thing for me is to be with you.

And when my old, tired legs don't let me move as quickly as before, give me your hand the same way that I offered mine to you when you first walked. When those days come, don't feel sad... just be with me, and understand me while I get to the end of my life with love. I'll cherish and thank you for the gift of time and joy we shared. With a big smile and the huge love I've always had for you, I just want to say, I love you ... my darling daughter.
