Our 82 y/o mom was diagnosed with cancer and soon after starting cancer treatment she fell and broke her hip. She did well following hip surgery and short term rehab but still needed care. When the decision was made that she was unable to go home alone we called Care Patrol to help us find the right assisted living facility. Not only was our initial call answered after business hours but Niki met with us in person the very next day, after business hours. Plans were being made for mom to be discharged from the rehab center and we needed to find the right place very quickly. Niki had already contacted several facilities and after meeting with us arranged tours at three facilities the following day. She chose facilities with high ratings and open beds that she felt would be comfortable for mom. We had contacts at each facility and they were prepared for our arrival. We spent almost 5 hours touring three different facilities and were able to make an informed decision about the right place for mom. For our family, the entire process took place in less than 48 hours. We could not have done it without Niki and Care Patrol.
Thank you!
Mary Ann has been an invaluable help during the process of finding the resources to help me throughout the entire journey of caring for my mom in her home and transitioning to personal care. She helped me find a caregiver, went on assisted care home tours and answered all my questions and concerns. She is so knowledgeable and caring, and I am forever thankful for all she has done for our family!
Mary Ann was courteous and professional. She listened to our needs and provided information thus allowing us to make an educated decision in regard to my mother's residence and care. She arranged for a tour of a personal assistance facility and aided in communication when my personal schedule was busy. I have referred her to a colleague and I wouldn't hesitate to do so again. Thank you!
Mary Ann at CarePatrol was a lifesaver when it came to navigating a community for our mom. Mary Ann took the journey with us every step of the way; and made it comforting during an emotional decision-making time. Her unending patience while we weighed all the options allowed us to find the perfect fit for our family. The outcome has been better than we could have imagined. Our mom is happy in her new environment, making friends and getting involved. Above all of that, she is safe and well cared for. We would recommend CarePatrol to anyone who needs guidance with finding a community for a loved one. We can't thank CarePatrol enough for the support!
