OUR STORIES
A Caregiver’s Tale
Mrs. Smith was an 82-year-old elderly woman who lived alone. Before her husband passed away, she was his primary caregiver. She cared for him for years. It wasn’t until after he passed that she ended up having some health conditions of her own. Her adult children noticed that she was becoming very forgetful. Bills were being paid late, causing her utility services to be disconnected. She also began to forget to take her medication. To make matters worse, Mrs. Smith took a nasty fall, causing her to be transported to the emergency room. What happened next took the family by storm. During her hospital visit, she was diagnosed with cancer. This was a big shock to her family. It was obvious she needed more care. To be released from the hospital, the doctor made it mandatory that she have 24-hour care. Both her son and daughter were now tasked with figuring out who would be the mom’s primary caregiver. While her daughter would have been the ideal caregiver, she lived an hour away, so the responsibility would have to be on her younger son who lived locally. But her son, Jacob, worked full time to support his stay-at-home wife and three kids. He couldn’t take on mom’s care. That’s when they decided that moving mom to an assisted living community would be a better fit for her. That way, she could get around-the-clock care. But where to start? The clock was ticking. They had to find a place fairly quickly, so they hired a senior professional placement agency. The agency was able to guide and advise them through the process and help recommend a good community where they were able to have peace of mind knowing that mom was well taken care of. With them being overwhelmed with the new diagnosis and working full-time, living long distance, moving mom’s house full of things from the 20 years she lived there, scheduling doctors’ appointments, and just dealing with everyday life. In general, having a senior care professional assist them with these tasks was very beneficial. With the help of the senior professional placement agency, they were able to find a community that had a nurse on staff to better manage her medication (with her new diagnosis of cancer she was having some dementia). She now has 24-hour care to help her with her care needs preventing any additional falls. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Agape Senior Solutions came to our family through an event my brother and sister attended knowing we may need assistance in helping our mother with care when the time comes. After the event, Rebekah followed up with my brother periodically to see how things were going. Little did we know that her assistance would be needed sooner rather than later.
I made the call to Agape and Rebekah returned my call quickly. She listened and offered much-needed support for me that day. We set up an appointment before meeting with myself and my other siblings to discuss what would be best for my mom. She then met with all of us after regular working hours to further discuss and answer any questions concerning available options for our sweet mom. Due to circumstances we didn’t know were coming, she worked quickly and diligently in coordinating my mother’s transition to her new home.
Rebekah is one in a million and truly a very caring and compassionate person to help you when trying to provide the very best for a loved one who has given their whole life taking care of and loving you their life’s priority like my mother did for all 6 of us. I highly recommend Agape Senior Solutions and Rebekah.

I can’t say enough good things about the assistance that Rebekah provided to our family at a difficult time! Our mother had some health issues that prevented her from returning home immediately following a stay in the hospital and rehab. We had very little time to decide what the next steps would be.
Fortunately, Rebekah’s services were recommended to us. We contacted her on a holiday weekend and figured it would be a few days before she could get back to us - but she contacted us very quickly after receiving our message. She talked us through some of our options and quickly set up some appointments to view assisted living facilities that week.
She walked us through every step of the way in getting our mother moved and has helped us with numerous other questions along the way, still checking in with us from time to time to see if we need further assistance.Audrey Hope ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

This service was a God send for me. I called after needing some help to best serve my mother who has always been independent and now requires a little help but is prideful about it. I called Agape Senior Solutions and was given astonishing professionalism, useful information and sincere attention regarding my mother's needs to provide me with the best solutions for my circumstances. Thank you and may God bless and grow your business where you can help more seniors who need it.
