We had a great experience with Shelli Hirtensteiner! We had to move fast in placing my dad, unexpectedly. Shelli listened to what my mom requested, and was able to find a great board & care match! Shelli is available, responsive and kind. There is so much information we did not know to ask- but Shelli guided us. She made a hard transition MUCH easier. Thankful for her work, on our behalf!

Eric Malik2022-10-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gisela is simply the best. Finding a place for my mom with dementia at first seemed so overwhelming, but Gisela really makes it so easy. I dont know how I would have managed without her, and now my mom is doing better than I ever thought was possible. Gisela truly is a lifesaver and I can't thank her enough for helping my family navigate through a very tough situation. So grateful to Gisela and I recommend her to everyone!

As a Marketing Director for an assisted living community it is so refreshing to have someone really invested in their clients. Shelli goes above and beyond for her families assisting them in finding the best options for them and their needs. I would recommend Shelli to families who want an expert in the field with personalized service. Beverley Campbell2022-04-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
