Our placement service is at no cost to you. We are paid by the assisted living homes and communities we partner with, and that never changes who we recommend or the homework we do on your behalf.

    The staff was very professional with all aspects of communication and document preparation. Unfortunately my mom passed before we could utilize the complete services. A generous refund was quickly returned to our family.

    This agency deserves 100 stars. Kristine went above and beyond in promptly responding to my inquiry to find a placement for my 93 yr old mother. If you need to find a placement for yourself or a loved one you can be certain that A Senior Journey will help you navigate this process with compassion, kindness and expertise.

    This business has been in operation for quite some time and they are very familiar with the senior offerings in the Tucson area. Once you discuss your situation with them they will place your loved one into the right facility for them. They were very patient and honest with me, I would highly recommend them.

    A Senior Journey was recommended to us by my husband’s neurologist as he had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s and Dementia in 2016 and was beginning to decline more quickly and. It was time to make plans for future care. Amanda was extremely helpful in narrowing down Memory Care choices. After a lengthy intake interview, Amanda narrowed her initial search to 4 facilities, After touring each with her, I chose one I liked. Even though my husband was not ready, at least we had a file open at our choice when the time came. And it did 10 months later. In between, Amanda kept in touch and was always available by phone for my question. When it was time, Amanda was there helping me with the necessary paperwork. I highly recommend A Senior Journey.

    Amanda was extremely helpful in identifying appropriate care facilities for my father-in-law. We discussed his needs and budget and quickly set appointments for us to see three options. She made the process stress-free and helped us make a good decision on a short timeline. I highly recommend her and her services.

    It was very difficult to even think about a decision to move my loved one into a facility. Senior Journey and Amanda did a splendid job of putting me at ease and showing me suitable places. It was so much easier to make the decision when one is not in a panic mode. Sooner is always better than later or Too Late! I definitely recommend this resource! 5 stars!!!!!!

    A Senior Journey is 100% the reason we found the right home for our elderly mom. Not only were we relieved to find someone to help us navigate through the next steps, we had no idea so many wonderful options existed. The caring conversations to determine what we needed led to some carefully thought out options on their part, and finding the right placement for our mom in such a short time. I've already passed on their information to a couple of friends and will continue to do so!

    Senior Journey rep Christine listened very carefully to my rather idiosyncratic desires and showed me a variety of places that fit in various ways--while being incredibly patient with my slow looking-process. After I had seen various places and she had taken my feedback, she gave me some careful custom advice/ideas that made a huge difference in my decision making. I am in living in a facility I saw with her and am very pleased. So: she listened, she was patient, she was perceptive. Her help was invaluable. I recommend!

    Amanda's referral for me to the Country Club of La Cholla was an excellent pairing for me and my lifestyle. They asked questions of me to decern what type of facility I best suited my needs. I was shown four locations and when I looked at CCofL the second time I knew it was for me. She went over the pros and cons of each location. No pressure--I appreciated that approach. I am not only happy here, I'm ecstatic.

    A wonderful local business that helps you during a difficult time. Kristine helped us find a great fit for my father in independent living. I will use them again if I ever need placement help again. Wonderful!

    I called on Senior journey in regard to placing a client with memory care needs. I found their representative to be knowledgeable about facilities that were available and very pleasant to work with. I was able to make a decision on the second place that we saw and my client has been living in that community for several months now. I believe that this was a great improvement from where she was previously. I’m very grateful for the assistance that I received from Senior journey. I highly recommend them as a placement service.
