What we help with
Our Services
However your family's journey starts, we help you find the right care, tour it with you, and stay alongside you until the decision is made, all at no cost to you.
Senior placement services help families find the right place for a loved one to live and receive care, whether that is assisted living, memory care, an adult care home, an independent living community, or help at home. A Senior Journey is a local Tucson placement agency. We learn what your loved one needs, narrow the options to licensed homes and communities that genuinely fit, tour them with you in person, and stay with you until the decision is made. Our help is free to families across the Tucson metro, from Oro Valley and Marana down to Sahuarita and Green Valley.

Learn moreWhich Service Fits Your Situation?
- If your loved one needs daily help with things like medication, bathing, or dressing, start with assisted living placement. It covers larger assisted living communities and smaller adult care homes alike.
- If they are living with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia, see memory care placement. Memory care is a specialized kind of assisted living with a secure setting and trained staff.
- If they are still independent but ready for less upkeep and more company, see independent living placement.
- If staying at home is the right choice for now, our in-home care referrals connect you with trusted local providers.
- If you already know the kind of care you want and would like a trusted recommendation, a senior placement referral points you to specific licensed homes and communities we know first-hand.
Not sure yet? Most families are not when they first call. Tell us what is going on and we will help you work out which path fits, even if the answer is that now is not the time to move.
Is Senior Placement Really Free?
Yes. Families never pay us, at any stage. We are paid by the homes and communities we partner with, and we are paid the same way whichever one you choose, so we have no reason to steer you. If the best fit for your loved one is a home we have no relationship with, we will still tell you about it. Our FAQ covers this and the other questions families ask us most.
Why Work With a Local Placement Agency?
An online directory can give you a list of names. A local agency gives you someone who has walked through those buildings. Amanda has spent 20 years in senior placement in Tucson, with more than 1,200 placements behind her, and she or Kristine tours every option with you in person. We only recommend state-licensed homes and communities in good standing, and we check each one's inspection history before we suggest it.
When cost is part of the question, our senior resources page explains the programs that help Tucson families pay for care, from ALTCS to VA benefits.
