QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

WHO IS CONCIERGE SENIOR PLACEMENT?

We are a residential senior placement service for the elderly, looking to save you time and energy while searching for the best senior living options. We do this because it is our passion and obligation to make sure we live up to the name “Concierge”!

HOW DO WE FIND YOU THE RIGHT COMMUNITY?

With your input and our expertise we build your personal profile to determine your specific needs. These include your physical, psycho-social, emotional, cultural, religious, geographic and financial needs to make the right match.

WHAT DO WE OFFER OUR CLIENTS?

Peace of mind! We do the homework and legwork to search & present communities from a vast database spanning Los Angeles and the surrounding regions that we feel match your individual needs. This means even discussing the hidden costs associated with increased care needs in some care communities.

HOW DO WE CHOOSE THE COMMUNITIES WE RECOMMEND?

There are many communities, facilities and homes to choose from, many of which are excellent and sadly many are not. Therefore we will personally visit and evaluate each community we refer to you. We will recommend a community if we feel it’s attractive, attentive, offers suitable care and has appropriate social and recreational activities. Of course we believe the community should be compassionate as well. Also, each Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE), licensed by the State of California – Department of Social Services, is regularly visited and stringently evaluated by the State in order to validate their compliance. Once we determine whether that community has met the State’s standards and will meet our criteria and standards, only then will we make them part of our recommendations to you.

WHAT ARE OUR QUALIFICATIONS?

We have been caring for seniors for over 30 years. We know what to look for when evaluating a Senior Living Community or RCFE, to ensure the best possible choice for you or your senior. We are credentialed caring professionals here to help our friends & families find the best solutions, resources and living arrangements for our seniors.
