This is a challenging time with Covid-19, but Liz arranged for us to see (by some different means) 4 adult foster care homes all in one afternoon.

She also provided us with a basic questionnaire form so that we had a list of some good questions to ask each owner. We ended up choosing one of the 4 places, and everyone is very pleased with the choice. Liz is knowledgeable and resourceful! Thank you Liz!

When you have a family member needing care. Perhaps at a distance from most family, what you need…read moreis a trusted care partner to step in and fill the gaps with love and care. Senior Resource Advisors took wonderful care of an aging aunt who resided at a senior facility. You might ask why this additional layer of help? The answer is simple. The facility provided a very nice place to live,, good food, a set of activities to help residents. SRA provided daily contact, took her shopping, to doctors appointments, helped her with personal needs such as cleaning clothes. SRA took a tremendous burden of care off family members and was a lasting friend forr my aunt. During the last weeks of her life, SRA really showed value, takinG her to thE hospital, being there when she needed help and support, gave a loving hand to help an aging lady comfort in the last days of her life. Simply priceless. If youre at a distance, or not able to dedicate sufficient time yourself, SRA fills the gap.

This is a very difficult review to write as there are few words to express the depth of my…read moregratitude towards the group of dedicated, professional and compassionate individuals who run and staff Senior Resource Advisors. It's not an exaggeration to say that in one of the most difficult periods of my adult life, they provided me and my elderly father with a sense of caring and support that transcends normal business operations. Our story in short: I was not raised with my biological/birth father, but toward the last phase of his life, I became responsible for helping coordinate his care, housing and finances. Not only did I live 11 hours away, but the whole idea of suddenly making critical decisions for him, with no previously established relationship on that level and no siblings or significant others to share the burden, was hard to imagine. When a loved one's mental and physical health begin to decline, it's difficult under normal circumstances, let alone inserting yourself into their life as their advocate when there is no one else. Luckily, there was someone else. There was a whole team of them. Senior Resource Advisors (SRA) had been connected through a referral with both my father and the facility where he was living. They reached out to me to begin the process of organizing a complete care plan that dealt with everything from medical appointments to automated bill payments and everything in between. Open and frequent lines of communication were established and I never felt like there was a day or time that I couldn't ask for clarification or help with any issue. And of course...there were plenty! Let me take a moment to mention that Urmi Boyd, President of SRA is a remarkable and beautiful human being who summoned incredible patience and determination to make this whole thing work. Medical, legal, financial and even social/emotional issues were handled by her with the type of care that we all want for our parents (and hopefully someday for ourselves) and without her personal approach, this situation would have rapidly deteriorated. Urmi was firm when needed, and compassionate throughout. In our age of automation and digital solutions, there is no substitute for a smart, sensitive person who has the ability to weigh the situation and make a timely and thoughtful recommendation. That was Urmi. My father passed away on October 12th. Before he died, we had worked with Urmi and her staff to manage his pain medication through the hospice nurse. Knowing his wishes, we planned together to make sure he was comfortable and aware enough to spend a final afternoon visiting my son, who traveled with me to see his grandfather. My father proudly introduced him to the staff of the care facility, then summoned the strength to walk us to the door and hug us goodbye. It was the last time we saw him. Every family's situation is unique to them, as they experience it. But there is enough commonality in these important life moments, that having someone with experience and skill can make a world of difference. For me and my father, that was Senior Resource Advisors and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

We ended up finding a wonderful home for my father and Jennifer's guidance for how to navigate the system and key decisions was so valuable!

It was in early January of this year that I was under a very short time line to move my mother from…read moreone Foster care home to another. I contacted Peter Wilhelm and he right away was the nicest, most knowledgeable advocate for seniors that I had yet to meet. After speaking to him about my mother's needs, limitations, and struggles at her current home, he diligently worked by contacting many owners and providers to seek availability. He also searched the DHS websites for information. After several weeks I was becoming a bit panicky, as I was under a time crunch. And then by the grace of God, he let me know of Amanda Shields at Magnolia Innovative Senior living in Garden Home. Wow, talk about a refreshing, warm wonderful person, as well as her new foster home, built specifically for foster care. I can't thank Peter enough for sending me and my mother to one of the nicest places I have ever toured, and my mother couldn't be happier!! If you are seeking an advocate to assist you in finding placement for your elderly loved ones or have friends who need help please contact Peter as he is a miracle worker. Thank you again Peter!

She was prompt and friendly and she always followed up which was a huge change compared to other people i had worked with. We had been struggling to find the best placement for my father on and off for a couple of years (even with the help of hospital social workers) which had been extremely difficult because I live across the country. Willow's help was invaluable in finding him a good home. She was persistent, kind, and very effective at communicating with the people at assisted living facilities. Additionally she was very fast to respond to text messages and emails which was a godsend given that many places I had been working with would only communicate over the phone or via fax. I wish we had found Willow long ago, other corporate placement agencies simply cannot do what she can do. Don't waste your time with anyone else!
