Relocation

Assistance &

Placement Services

HOW IT WORKS
Placement companies have agreements with Independent, Assisted Living and
Memory Care Communities to professionally represent them to the public seek-
ing services. They are often selective so look for a company who represents
100s of facilities/properties. The placement counselor/advisor will assess your situa-
tion and help to narrow down the list of good “candidate” communities tailored
to your needs. They should also be able to connect you with other resources as
needed. The service is free to the “consumer” or “client” because the property
you choose compensates the placement company directly. You should choose
one person/ company that you feel comfortable working with throughout this
process.
WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT
Personalized service and the right amount of guidance. Some cases can be
handled with phone calls or emails, but most often you will have a “face to
face” visit and personally escorted tours. The assessment of health, financial,
location and personal preferences will help map out the course. Whatever your
circumstance, you should feel comfortable that you are working with someone
who has clear knowledge by providing options, information and support.

YOU SHOULD KNOW
There are many businesses that advertise free placement services in Florida. These
are privately owned and operated businesses that are not regulated or licensed
by any governing agency. Relocating is often stressful, so be selective in choosing
the representative that will assist you with this important decision. There are also
many businesses providing additional relocation assistance like packing, shipping,
sorting, property preparation for auction or sale and much more.
