I know that we all want to be the ones to care for our aging family members, but it is ok to reach out when you need help - that's what we did. With great compassion and understanding, Megan listened to our needs, helped us weigh out our options, and found a place for our loved one within 24 hrs - AMAZING! With Megan, we felt as though we were talking with a friend that cared, rather than a customer service clerk looking to fill a quota. This company cares and that's what sets Care Quest apart from the others.

We were fortunate enough to not need to put him into a care facility immediately, but as my parents got older and my dad's care requirements increased, we always had Care Quest in our back pocket. When it came time to finally make the call that we couldn't handle things on our own anymore, we reached out to Care Quest, and Maegan immediately reached out to help understand what my dad's care needs were, what things were important to our family, and then quickly helped us understand what our options were. Through the course of taking tours of the facilities, making the decision where to go, and the final move in and transition period, the folks at Care Quest checked in to make sure we were well taken care of, and that we were happy with the options we were looking at. They were a tremendous help in navigating a very difficult and stressful period of transition, and we've been really happy with the place my dad is now. I'm deeply grateful to them for their work, for the care they took in understanding our needs (and wants!), and the speed, thoroughness, and gentleness of everyone involved. Recommended without hesitation.

Bryan quickly located several good options for small board and care facilities, which worked for her very small budget, but would provide both the attention and also the medical evaluations she needed. He introduced us, gave us advice, and helped us with the transition (which, if you have a loved one with memory issues, you know this can be a traumatic experience for the one moving). We are so delighted with her new home, and she tells us every day how happy she is there, and how they treat her like family. It is such a relief knowing she is being cared for in a safe and warm environment, and we could never have done this alone. Thank you so much Bryan, you are a life saver!

Within a week she had narrowed locations options for us and we were able to tour both locations the same day, which was massively helpful given busy work schedules. Mona also pre negotiated with the community managers before we even toured the communities, so when we decided to move forward with one, we already had a good idea of cost which was one of our main concerns with this type of move.

Eventually my mother's application was approved, but 4 months later we received a penalty notice which stopped the Medicaid payments for 6 1/2 months. When I first sent the notice to the worker she thought it was just a routine form letter until the nursing home confirmed that it was not. After paying all of the money to the company I no longer have confidence that they are Medicaid experts and have needed to spend more money to hire an Elder Care Certified Attorney to file the appeal. It seems that it would be much better to hire Certified Elder Care Law Firms in your state rather than a nationwide organization that has paraprofessionals handling such important matter.
