I was fortunate to be referred to Joshua and his wife’s boutique business through an acquaintance. The word that comes to mind is exemplary. Joshua cares deeply about placing people into residences that are the perfect fit for their needs, personalities, budget, and timing. He is extremely honest about what he knows and doesn’t know and makes an effort to fill any gaps in ground-truthing questions and assumptions that I made. He was such a pleasant, responsive, service-oriented colleague and was very organized. Every time we spoke which was multiple times per week, he followed up with an email to recount our discussions and follow up on any questions he couldn’t answer on the spot. He was candid and diplomatic and was very patient as I learned the nuances between independent, assisted, memory care, etc. He even reviewed the long-term care insurance plan and helped derive a basic budget that directly helped my family make some timely decisions. Initially, I was using a generic search through the web. By having Joshua as a consultant, he tailored each and every site to what our needs were. I’m forever grateful for his guidance and support. I can’t recommend him enough. There is nothing pushy or salesperson-like in his approach. There are no costs borne by me or any other person he works with. It’s simply a gift to have found his services. Highly recommended beyond reservation!!!

Joshua was absolutely amazing!! I was at my wits end trying to place my sister somewhere safe and affordable. He took the time to listen to my concerns and went to work to help me find the perfect facility. He had so much knowledge and information that I would never had known about. He has his heart into this work and it really shows. I am so grateful for all of his help. I, honestly, have no idea how I would have made this move on my own. Thank you Joshua for everything!

I can't say enough about how helpful Josh was in guiding my family understand and navigate the world of assisted living as the next step in our lives. Mom was diagnosed with ALS and there was an urgent need as she and her husband could no longer live on their own. The ALS association of South Carolina recommended Josh and we had a terrific discussion that educated me on this journey. We were moving to the Atlanta area so Josh could not directly help, but he took the time to research and find a person we could trust in Atlanta. He even vetted this person personally even though there really wasn't anything in it for him. He is truly dedicated to helping people and I very much appreciated him for it.If you have a need in this area, you will do well to contact him directly.

So very thankful for Joshua and his company( senior resource specialist) I had so many people( social workers from hospital and different other companies that said they would help. Well, I was left with no help.As a retired fire fighter medic I can handle a lot. I was not mentally prepared for this battle. I felt alone trying to figure out if my mom would ever get the care she needed and deserved.The other battle was she only had a certain amount of money, . That made it real difficult and finally a lady gave me Joshua’s phone number. He responded back right away and reassured me everything was gonna workout. . He was very comforting, understanding and gave me so much information with reassurance that my mom would have a place and there was other avenues to take when she exceeded her money. So thankful for this blessing of being able to finally have someone to care and help. My mom has been placed in a nice place because of him and their company. If you know anyone in help ,refer them as I wish I had found them sooner because I could have saved myself a lot of tears

I cannot say enough about Joshua’s assistance with my dad. From helping with storage, to transportation, to facility recommendations, he was an incredibly sincere, patient, and kind person taking every challenge with grace, helping us so much during an incredibly difficult season. I could not recommend him more and will forever be grateful for his service.

Anne Marie was amazing in helping my family find a home for my mother. She was so diligent in making sure all our needs were met. I cannot thank her enough for what she was able to accomplish for all of us!!

Anne Marie was absolutely fantastic when I needed help finding care for my elderly parent. Navigating elderly care options was not something I knew anything about. I was referred to Anne Marie. She was that one person I knew I could call for advice when I was so unsure of what to do, where to look, what to look for… From my very first conversation with her, I felt her compassion. She was kind, understanding and knowledgeable. She listened to my concerns, answered my questions and navigated me through a very difficult situation helping me find the best place for my parent. I can’t say enough about her. I highly recommend her!

It is nearly impossible to put into words how amazing Anne Marie and Josh are, and just this organization as a whole!! Transitioning my parents has been so tough, and I could not have done it without them. Not only are they very resourceful, but they are calm, kind, and very well-versed and true experts in this field. They were so thorough in finding out what our goals were with my parents and truly exceeding our expectations!!! They are truly a soup to nuts service and are still assisting us. Transitioning, a family member can be very confusing, frightening, sad and overwhelming, and they truly took all of the anxiety away. Every city across America needs not only a service like this but the spectacular support of an Anne Marie and Josh on their side!!! A ++++++

I can't say enough about how helpful Joshua was in finding a senior living location for my mom. He provided several viable options and even broke everything down on spreadsheets to show that my mom could afford to live in her new place comfortably and without financial worry. I highly recommend them!

Senior Resource Specialists has always gone above and beyond in any interaction we've had. Their customer service is unmatched. They even set up a week of meals with other vendors for our staff to try and help boost facility morale. Josh and Anne Marie, you are doing great work and bringing the elderly community and providers closer one day at a time! Thank you.

I have had the pleasure of working with Anne Marie and Josh for several years. They are truly kind, caring and compassionate professionals. Their knowledge of the challenges seniors (and families) face, as well as, the available resources to meet needs is a benefit to all they serve. However, it is the willingness to match clients with the best options to meet individual needs regardless of whether they will paid for those efforts that speaks to their integrity and dedication to clients.

I work in social services for a local nursing home. Since the day I met Josh, any issue or help I have needed for patients and their families he has been able to provide. Honestly I don’t even call anyone else. Josh & Anna Marie are THE BEST.

Recently, my 84 year old mother rapidly declined in health requiring in-home care upon release from a lengthy hospital/rehab stay. Fortunately, Joshua's advice and recommendations for in-home care were very valuable to our family - we've selected a provider Joshua recommended and we've been very pleased. However, it's been Joshua's knowledge and experience, and his patience and understanding, that I most appreciate and find unique. For anyone on the journey of caring for a loved one and need support, I encourage you to contact Senior Resource Specialists.

We as a family, mother included decided independent living should be a conversation. Well after many, many phone calls and phone tag. I was given the number of an agency called Senior resource specialists this is where I found an angel, Anne Marie I found her and her company to be knowledgeable,friendly and just plain great at what she does. Anne Marie did ALL the leg work so to speak. Ins and outs of insurance. This wonderful woman reached out to all of her connections and had a home for Mom in 1wk. I'm grateful and blessed to have had her expertise, she put my mind at ease. So if anyone in the community needs her I recommend her and her husband to all. To all that need help she will do above and beyond like your a part of her family.Thank youThe Horan Family

What a pleasant experience working with Senior Resource Specialists! Ann Marie was pleasant, professional, caring and efficient! When my mother fractured her hip and needed to find a rehab facility I reached out to Ann Marie. I asked her for help and she found an excellent facility! I recommend that families reach out to them in their time of need. Instead of being in the phone inquiring I was able to concentrate on my mother and her needs. I am so grateful for their help in our time or need! Ann Marie you are the sweetest!

What is the average cost of each level of care?
- Independent living starts around $2000 and includes services like weekly housekeeping, 1-2 meals a day, activities and often utilities.
- Assisted living starts at $2800 and includes laundry, weekly housekeeping, 3 meals a day, activities, help with bathing, dressing, medication management, transfers and more.
