Supporting Seniors

Laura was very responsive. She understands the needs of seniors. She takes the time necessary to make a good recommendation for the best retirement home that fits your circumstances.

Supporting Seniors was a god send in a difficult time of trying to find the right care home for my mom. Laura took an otherwise stressful search and dedicated herself to helping us find the perfect fit. We can’t say enough good things about this service!

Laura is an incredibly valuable resource when it comes to all things related to senior assisted living/retirement residences. She can save clients so much time and headaches by knowing all of the retirement homes in Ottawa and what you need to know before deciding which one is right for you (which I've found includes a lot of details many people don't consider) and her services are FREE which is crazy - she is extremely ethical and compassionate. It's practically negligent to look into any type of senior assisted living without at least speaking to her first!

Supporting Seniors is that beacon of light during a stressful time. Laura has assisted both our friend and our family to find and ensure they have the best possible home. Supporting Seniors provides thoughtful, knowledgeable and kind care for everyone on their journey.

Laura was beyond exceptional. She was with me step by step through the very stressful process of relocating my father to a new home. She is genuine, kind, caring and goes above and beyond. It's very evident that she loves what she does and understands the challenges that seniors face and the challenges that families face in finding the right fit for their loved ones. She made me feel like no question was a dumb question and really advocated for us.Laura even had flowers delivered on Dad's first day which was such a thoughtful touch. HIGHLY recommend.

It was a pleasure working with Laura to assist the transition of my 90-year-old aunt from one retirement home to another that met her new requirements for age in place. Laura was very good diligent and coming up with the options available and within the budget that we had to work with. I would recommend anyone who does not have the time to do it all themselves and would like an expert to guide them on this very difficult and complex type of transition to avail themselves of her services.

We were moving my aunt from Montreal to Ottawa. I met a friend who had used this service to help frind her father an apartment and she suggested I use Supporting Seniors to help with the search. I had been looking myself but it was very overwhelming as there are so many choices and such a variety of prices. I sent Laura a message and she got back to me very quickly. She was very thorough gathering wants, likes and dislikes of my aunt. Within a few days Laura came up with a list of options. Our first was the Ravines which we loved and thought would be the best match for my aunt. Any questions we had were quickly answered. From start to finish it was a very easy process using Supporting Seniors and made a very hard move much easier. I woud definitely use this service again.

When starting to look for supportive senior living options for my mom we had done some research and tours on our own, but working with Laura certainly helped speed the process up. She was knowledgeable about the various residences we had seen or were interested in seeing, and helped us set up tours and navigate pricing. She offers a lot of support throughout the process, and I appreciated having a 'neutral' person to discuss issues and compare options. She gave us three recommendations for movers including a senior-specific moving company. She was really helpful and based on my experience I would recommend her services highly.

Laura went above and beyond to find the right retirement home for my mother that would provide the care she needed, an environment in which she would thrive socially, and fit her budget. She took a personal interest in my mother's well being. I doubt I would've gotten the same level of service from another agency. I'm glad the Dementia Society recommended her services to me.
