Your assistance in locating a place for my mum close to where she lives and then negotiating with the aged care facility was such a relief for me and very much appreciated. Also, your advice in relation to the costs when entering low care, as well as providing referrals to applicable financial advisors, has been invaluable. Thank you. Mrs Rhondda J.
Dear Andrea, Thank you for all your help. I would not have had a hope all on my own. I hope Brian settles in well, he should do so. Thanks again. Carmel
Thank you once again. I think your service is a God Send. Have a Merry Christmas. Mrs. Booth
I cannot help but think how fortunate we have been in the way everything has worked out. Having Ada and Keith being placed together, in a very comfortable and caring facility, and especially in a location so close to family members has been ideal. Mr Ken C.
