Senior Living Residences and Communities Support

Move My Mom connects families with senior living placement advisors who help assess practical needs, preferred lifestyle, budget, and desired care level. An advisor can help narrow community options and guide the search process without charging your family for the referral service. The platform also helps connect the surrounding transition services needed once a community is selected.

No. A consultation with a Move My Mom advisor and referrals to senior living placement professionals are provided at no cost to you or your family. If you choose to hire an independently referred provider, such as a mover or senior move manager, that provider may charge for its services based on the scope of work. Families can choose only the help they need.

Independent living is generally designed for older adults who want a maintenance-free lifestyle with amenities and social opportunities but need little daily assistance. Assisted living provides help with activities such as medication management, bathing, meals, and mobility. Memory care offers a more structured, secure setting with staff and programs tailored for people living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia.

Begin planning as early as possible, ideally before a health event or urgent deadline requires a quick move. Early planning gives your family time to discuss preferences, tour communities, organize financial and medical information, and thoughtfully sort belongings. If a move is urgent, Move My Mom can still help connect you with appropriate placement and transition professionals to prioritize the most pressing tasks.

Yes. Move My Mom can refer families to senior move managers, movers, donation services, auction and liquidation professionals, and junk removal providers. These specialists can help determine what to keep, sell, donate, recycle, or remove. Support can be arranged for a full-home transition or for specific needs, helping families reduce physical work and make decisions at a manageable pace.

Most communities welcome meaningful furniture, artwork, photographs, and personal items, but available space and community policies vary. Before moving day, confirm room dimensions, included furnishings, electrical restrictions, and prohibited items with the residence. A senior move manager can help create a floor plan, select the most useful belongings, and set up the new space so it feels familiar, functional, and comfortable.

Move My Mom can refer families to real estate professionals experienced with senior transitions. A referred agent can help evaluate timing, pricing, marketing, showings, and negotiations while coordinating with a move date. Families may also use referrals for cleanouts, repairs, donations, estate sales, or liquidation so the property can be prepared efficiently while personal belongings are handled thoughtfully.

Include your parent in conversations whenever possible and focus on what matters most to them: safety, companionship, routines, favorite possessions, and continued independence. Visit prospective communities together, allow time for questions, and avoid rushing decisions that do not require immediate action. On moving day, bring familiar items and establish comforting routines. Delegating logistics can also free family members to provide reassurance and connection.
