"We made the big move for Mom and Dad last weekend. My husband, Jim and I were over there yesterday afternoon and they seem to be adjusting to their new surroundings very well. I can't say enough about Catherine at Elim Shores. She is genuinely a caring person and so helpful. I think we made the right choice for Mom and Dad and appreciate all the help A Place for Mom was in us finding Elim Shores."

"Mom is doing fine. She is becoming more familiar with things and is adjusting to the daily schedule that she much needed. This whole transition has been much easier than we had ever anticipated. I tell everyone about what a great service you provide for people with this difficult decision in front of them. Not only did you help us find a suitable place, offer good advice on what to look for when we toured, you also provided an understanding ear at a time when we needed someone the most. I could not ask for anything more. You were terrific and I will never ever forget about A Place for Mom."
