Jim R - Senior Care Lifestyles

“I’ve been very fortunate to have had both of my parents for as long as I have. They just celebrated their 75th wedding anniversary this past April and in their mid-nineties have lived in the home they’ve shared together for many years. Sadly, my father passed away in June. Following his death, it became clear that my mother could no longer stay at home alone. My mother is suffering with progressive dementia and needs 24/7 care. Anyone who’s been in this situation knows how overwhelming it can be. My primary care doctor suggested a case manager who referred me to Deborah Bakalich at Senior Care Lifestyles, LLC. What an amazing provision and what an amazing woman. From the very start Deborah understood my situation. She listened to me and communicated to me with empathy, professionalism, and a caring attitude. She responded quickly and miraculously she was able to place my mother in her new assisted living residence in just one day! I am grateful for her valuable insight and truly appreciate the advice she’s given me. With Debora’s help we took what seemed to be an impossible situation and turned it into a new home for my mother. I would highly recommend Deborah to anyone in need of senior advice and solutions. Thanks again Deborah.” Jim R
