"Missy is a compassionate soul who went above and beyond to ensure I was aware of the best options in Columbus for our particular needs. She held my hand through a really difficult time and allowed my brothers and I to focus on my dad while she coordinated the tours and helped us navigate which communities made sense for our family long term. If you are in need of finding the perfect community and want to get it right the first-time, call Missy! I wish I had known Missy earlier, she could have saved us the headache the first time around."

"My husband had a stroke and I was told he couldn’t go home and was being discharged from rehab. I didn’t know what to do or where to start besides this long list I was given. I only had two days to figure it all out and I was so stressed. My mom had worked with Missy previously and gave me her name. I called her and she started working on placement that evening. She made some phone calls and connected with people that allowed me to find a community that fit our needs by the next day. I don’t know what I would have done if Missy wasn’t there to help us. She made the process so much easier and allowed us to focus on my husband’s recovery instead of trying to figure something out that I had no idea about."
