How Seniors Helping Seniors Can Help Seniors with Transitional Moves

Seniors Helping Seniors is known for helping seniors maintain their independence in their own home for as long as it is safely possible. However, for a number of reasons (Alzheimer's, Dementia, changes in health, falling, etc.) in many cases it may be necessary for someone to move into an assisted living facility or nursing home. It is also very common for seniors to downsize and move from a single family home into a condo or townhouse.

In either situation, Seniors Helping Seniors is still there to help. When it is time for you to move, we understand the challenges that come with packing up a home that you may have been in for decades. Our senior providers have an understanding of what it is like to have been in the same home for many, many years and who better to help you prepare for a move? We also can help you get settled into your home - unpack, hang those pictures, put the dishes away and even look through all those photographs you uncovered during the move and talk about the "Good old days".

But in this housing market, before we get to any of that, first you need to sell your home. And that is where someone like Julie Stone from Staged to Sell can come in.....
