The nice thing about living in Collin County and in the area is that there are many different senior living choices to choose from. I actually grew up in the area and graduated from Plano West in 2001. Over the past 4 plus years, I’ve had the opportunity to get to know all of the assisted living Plano TX facilities and am very familiar with them as each place does have its own feel and personality. What I mean by feel and personality, is that each place is different because of its staff, experience, activities offered, food, looks of the building and many other things.
If you’re just now starting your search or in the process of looking for Assisted Living Plano TX Facilities, then you’ve probably noticed there are over 25 places to choose from and it’s quite overwhelming. When I went through my search for finding the appropriate place for my mom, I toured 8 options which was just way too much. After a while, I was getting so confused and I couldn’t remember what I had viewed at each property.
Below are some important things to take into consideration when trying to find the best Assisted Living Plano TX facility for your friend or family member:
- Marketers – Most people don’t know it, but when you go tour an option, you’re going to be interacting with a marketer. What is the marketer concerned with and what is their job? The marketer’s job is to fill the apartments. I tell families not to be encouraged by any incentives that are currently being offered, but to make sure that you make the decision with you’re ready. Certainly, there are good and honest marketers out there, but Senior Living Specialists was created to ensure that nobody does get taken advantage of by a marketer that is just concerned with filling an apartment.
- Priorities – Before even calling or going to tour any Assisted Living Plano Facilities, I would highly recommend creating a list of Top 5 or Top 10 priorities for your search. What I tell families is that each person’s situation is going to be different from one another, so make sure that you truly think about your situation rather than be influenced by a friend that might have gone through this looking for a senior living facility recently.
Below is a testimonial that Senior Living Specialists received from a family that we had the opportunity to help:
“I was given Senior Living Specialists contact information by a friend of mine who had utilized your help for her father seeking assisted living placement. You were a tremendous help to me and my siblings for securing the appropriate Plano Assisted Living Facility for my mother. We knew this task was going to be very overwhelming and exhausting. However, you made this much easier for all of us and the tips that you provided to us along the way were very instrumental”. Stacy D. Plano TX
