Finding the Right Senior Living Community
Choosing the right senior living community or care facility can be overwhelming, particularly when an older adult's health, mobility, or care needs are changing. Understanding the differences between independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing facilities is an important first step toward making an informed decision.
Sunset Senior Concierge provides personalized senior living placement assistance by helping older adults and families evaluate care needs, explore appropriate living arrangements, and navigate available options; including Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs) and short-term rehabilitation facilities.
How We Help
Assess Care Needs: Evaluate daily living needs, functional abilities, cognitive concerns, personal preferences, and existing support systems to help identify appropriate levels of care.
Explore Living and Care Options: Research independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation facilities, and CCRCs based on individual needs, location, and financial considerations.
Coordinate Facility Tours and Evaluations: Arrange community visits, accompany clients when appropriate, and help families ask informed questions about staffing, services, costs, and admission requirements.
Support Informed Decisions: Help older adults and families compare options, understand differences in available services, and make decisions that reflect the older adult's needs, preferences, and circumstances.
Our Commitment to Independent Guidance
Sunset Senior Concierge does not accept referral fees or commissions from senior living communities or care facilities. Our recommendations are guided by each client's individual care needs, preferences, and circumstances—not financial incentives from providers.
Admissions & Relocation Coordination
Once a senior living community or care facility has been selected, navigating admission requirements, medical documentation, and moving arrangements can be time-consuming and stressful, especially for families coordinating care from a distance.
Sunset Senior Concierge helps manage the details, coordinating with healthcare providers, facility staff, family members, and moving professionals to support an organized transition.
How We Help
Applications & Admissions: Assist with applications, required documentation, facility assessments, and admission coordination.
Medical & Insurance Coordination: Communicate with healthcare providers and facilities regarding medical records, physician orders, insurance requirements, and necessary authorizations.
Relocation Planning: Coordinate moving professionals, scheduling, and move-in logistics, including transitions from home, hospital, or rehabilitation settings.
Family Communication & Follow-Up: Provide updates to authorized family members, help address transition-related concerns, and coordinate follow-up needs after move-in.
Understanding Skilled Nursing &
Custodial Care
Medicare may cover short-term skilled nursing or rehabilitation care when specific eligibility requirements are met. However, Medicare does not cover long-term custodial care when assistance with everyday activities, such as bathing, dressing, or eating, is the only care needed.
Coverage and payment options vary depending on medical needs, insurance benefits, and eligibility. Sunset Senior Concierge helps families understand their options and coordinate next steps.
