Senior Planning Services | Care Manager

“Very helpful service and kind employees.” George, a client

“We were able to keep my 95 year old mother in law in her home with the help of caregivers from Senior Planning Services. This is one of the top agencies in the area, with years of experience serving the elder community. The caregivers are kind, trustworthy, and well trained. As our mom’s condition changed due to dementia, Senior Planning Services was able to provide us with caregivers that met the challenges of her condition. When we had unexpected needs for assistance, they were able to send help right away. A professional and experienced care manager was available to us to answer questions and problem-solve when we ran into issues that stumped us. I highly recommend Senior Planning Services for caregiving services.” Kathy Y, Former Client Family Member

“I had turned to Senior Planning Services because I was familiar with them and needed assistance. I didn’t realize that they would be able to provide me with such peace of mind. I know that my mom is safe and happy and I sleep well at night. What a gift!” Susan, Daughter

“Thank you for the support I received from the SPS staff during all this time. It was a complicated case, but in the end my heart fills with gratitude to all of you for giving me a job and also keeping it for a fixed period. I summarize my experience with great thanks also to the client’s family.

Best regards” ACP (Caregiver)

“As a professional in the eldercare field in Santa Barbara, I was familiar with Senior Planning Services and its excellent reputation. When my mother’s husband passed away, I was suddenly faced with the task of relocating her from New Jersey to Santa Barbara and setting up care for her. I immediately called Senior Planning Services and was given support and much needed advice that same day. ” Susan, daughter

“Please pass along my gratitude and appreciation to Suzanne, as last night’s (radio show) was truly wonderful. She did a fantastic presentation and really got the conversation going between callers.

“We were finally able to settle the client’s case. I am convinced that settlement would not have been possible without the very thorough report you prepared and the incredible knowledge you were able to convey to the other side in such a professional manner. What a terrific team you are! We are most grateful!” Maureen G., attorney

Their stability and guidance helped me through an emotionally charged experience. I can’t recommend them highly enough.” John M., client

“Suzanne, Your unique blend of practicality and compassion is so refreshing. I appreciate how you take into consideration the reality of actual dollars and cents as well as the various levels of care anticipated. When discussing the big picture, you are always conscious of the need for the elderly to have as fulfilling a social life as possible whether they stay in their homes with support or move to a retirement facility.” Jacqui D., daughter

“I’ve been using your ‘Resources’ page. My husband has been having some trouble sleeping the past few weeks and while he’s never had any issues before, I wanted to do a little bit of research about sleep disorders. Thanks for putting the page together, we really appreciate it.” Annie N., wife

“Jackie, I wanted to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the collaboration we shared in caring for Mrs. D.
