Client Testimonials

reviews in the state of California. We are honored to have received extensive feedback from our valued clients,
reflecting our  commitment to excellence in providing top-tier services for seniors and their families.

Jan was excellent in helping us find the best possible place for our dad to live, within budget. She was flexible when we changed geographic locations, and successful in showing us opportunities that met all of our criteria.

Kathy F.

Fountain Valley, CA

I was referred to Jan when I was absolutely desperate to find supportive housing for a family member discharged from the hospital and unable to care for himself. Jan made careful note of his specific needs, and within 24 hours, my family member was in a great place, safe and well cared for.
It’s hard enough just getting ordinary business done these days when you’re forced to talk to robots and listen to the entire menu because the options (that never apply to your situation) have allegedly changed. And leave countless unreturned messages in overflowing voicemail boxes. And when you’re in a challenging situation and you need help and answers fast, it’s simply soul-crushing.
But Jan listens carefully. And calls you back. And comes through. She’s already done the research and knows the area from one end to the other. Reach out to her — you’ll be grateful you did.

Trish B

Woodland Hills

We were filled with anxiety at the loads we didn’t know about elder care options – – and to move my mom from another state to California into either board and care or assisted living. Jan Bearss was a calming voice with wisdom and insights to help guide us through the labyrinth. She gave us first steps to get started, and continued to offer information and check ins without overwhelming us (although we were overwhelmed!). She gave us palatable steps to focus on, and shined a flashlight on options to look at that felt fitting. So thankful!

Tami Podell came highly recommended to me for help placing my 90 year old father-in-law in a safe, loving home that suited his needs and life-style. Tami with great knowledge of the area and all of its living and care facilities, helped us find a perfect match for Dad. He’s happy, we’re happy. She nailed it, it was a bulls-eye!
Thank you Tami!

Palm Desert, CA

Tami Podell and her team at Assisted Living Connections are amazing!
They helped me find the right Board & Care for my mom – who has Alzheimer’s – that met her care needs and budget. Tami was kind and caring and listened to my needs and concerns. She continued to check in with me and work with me until she found the right fit for my mom. I highly recommend Assisted Living Connections as they provide a compassionate caring service.

Simi Valley, CA

This review is way overdue. Kelila and her team at Assisted Living Connections have been invaluable help to my family. I first worked with Kelila in finding placement for my grandparents, they had a tall order of asks, wanting a kitchen space, a separate bedroom and living space, and all on a limited budget. My mother and I had no idea what we were doing when we started looking in to facilities, we toured a few places that did not meet any of our criteria and were so overwhelmed. Kelila and team to the rescue! She is so organized, professional, and knows the ins and outs of all of the facilities in the area. Kelila was able to find us the perfect place to meet all of my grandparent’s requirements, as well as provided excellent referrals for assistance in packing/downsizing my grandparents to get them ready for the transition. Since them, I have referred my father-in-law to Kelila to assist in placing my husband’s grandmother. I also ended up needing to find temporary placement for a family member as they rehabbed from a stroke, and Kelila’s associate Tami found a wonderful place that met our unique needs. Every time the team has approached us with so much compassion, kindness, and an abundance of knowledge. My family is truly so thankful that Assisted Living Connections has been able to provide us help during some of our most stressful and difficult times.

Tami Podell and staff are the best! My husband went through a revolving door of hospital, skilled nursing, assisted living until Tami got him settled into a great assisted living place! Thus far he is getting great care and has stayed put. No more hospital stays or skilled nursing and he seems much happier. Taking care of someone with multiple physical and mental issues is so stressful. Tami and staff were my life raft!

Barbara K.

Thousand Oaks, CA

Kalila Heller is a treasure. My mother needed to upgrade her living situation, and I was intimidated to do it on my own. Kalila asked all the right questions, and presented me with several options that were good fits for her. We are so grateful for her patience, kindness, and unsurpassed sensitivity. Five enthusiastic stars!

Assisted Living Connections is a lifeline for those who are researching care options for family members. Although they specialize in helping people find assisted living facilities, they also offer an extensive list of agencies offering in-home healthcare as well. Their professionalism and kindness are extraordinary.
