Senior Living Placement Services

The decision to move from the home they love is significant and should be handled with grace. Having peace of mind can greatly simplify this decision-making process.

  • We make sure to consider all the crucial factors before beginning our search for a new place to call home. Our services cater to all budgets and circumstances.

  • The key is to know what questions to ask and what to look for, including any red flags.

  • We thoroughly evaluate communities before you visit them. If we wouldn't place our own families there, we won't place yours. We'll accompany you on visits, discussing details at a pace that's comfortable for you.

  • Our commitment extends from the beginning to the end, and even beyond, as we guide you at every turn. Empowering you to advocate, understand your rights, and represent your loved one remains our top priority.

This Service is completely FREE for you! The community compensates us through a referral system. Because we are independent, Graceful Transitions Senior Advisors chooses communities based on safety and client suitability, not contractual obligations. We only recommend communities where we would confidently place our own family members.

**Medicaid Placement Assistance WITHOUT Spend Down will incur charges between $500-$1000 depending on distance and time.**
