I take great pleasure in highly recommending Senior Helpers in San Rafael. For some years now, as…read moresome of my life-long friends were needing daily help in their homes, they would talk about this amazing local agency. When you get older, much older, you put off the inevitable for as long as you can. Folks like me really don't want to admit that we need help with the basics of everyday living. Taking the big step to invite a stranger into your home to aide with some extremely personal tasks is a real big deal. First off, the warm and pleasant ladies in the SH office were just so sweet off- the-bat that I immediately felt my fears lesson greatly. Those ladies seem to also be extremely intuitive and empathetic, as well, because they matched me with a pure angel. When Sarah first came to my door and into my life I immediately felt safe and cared for. I was in the hands of a strong, loving, smart, and compassionate soul. I don't know if they get the client-caregiver matching this right, this perfect, every time but I can say they sure did with me. It's obvious that the people hiring at SH in San Rafael really care a lot and to whomever hired these ladies and tasked them with finding wonderfully amazing helpers, God Bless You!

I have been lucky to have Roseanne in my corner for many years.

She is always available to answer your questions and point you to a resource or most important, show you a better option.

I wish there were more stars to give Rosanne. My parents used Rosanne to purchase their Long Term…read moreCare Insurance 18 years ago. She did a wonderful job getting them a very good plan. During the last year my dad's health has declined and they have started to use the policy Rosanne sold them. They are extremely fortunate to have such a good policy and it was all due to Rosanne and her commitment to getting her clients the best policy that fits their specific needs. My husband and I just used Rosanne to find us a very specific type of Long Term Care policy. The industry has changed a lot since my parents bought their policy. We knew it was not going to be easy to find what we were looking for. But, Rosanne was committed to finding it for us and she was successful. We could not be happier. Rosanne is very professional and caring. She doesn't want to sell you just any policy. She wants to understand your specific situation so she can get you the best policy for your needs. I would highly recommend that anyone looking to purchase Long Term Care insurance contact Rosanne. Long Term Care insurance can be overwhelming to understand because there are so many different types of polices available. Rosanne will help you navigate all of it and find you the policy that works best for your needs.

I had inherited a large home here and was dragging my heals on taking the last steps to completely empty the house for a big remodel project that was imminent. I heard about Debra and sent off an email to her describing my situation and we were able to work out a time to meet and to discuss the project. On our first meeting I knew she was the one that could help me with all the organizing and packing that was necessary! We worked together at the house for a week and I knew I had made the right choice a she was so incredibly helpful and fun to work with. I had about 1,000 DVDs to sell and she boxed everything up and brought it all down to sell at Rasputens and also made several trips to the Good Will. She was also great for referrals around town on the more expensive things I decided to sell. I also brought her to my apartment and she completely organized my kitchen IN ABOUT AN HOUR! Not only did Debra help me with all the organizing and packing of a large home, she developed a budget for the remodel and put together a working binder to keep everything organized. Now that I'm into the remodel I use this everyday! Debra was my angel that helped so much when I was getting to my wits end. I'm planning a move this summer and I plan on using her services again. I've told all of my friends and family how great it was to work with In A Good Space and I can't recommend Debra enough!

Hi, This is Pat, I have lived in three residences so far and…read moreDrake Terrace is decidedly the best! this is mainly because the staff is really caring. You see and feel the relationship[s build between us. The attention paid to preferences and recognition and care of physical conditions. The building isn't the most modern around the edges - But that doesn't really matter, ones former home sometimes was too. However the garden is really lovely - a green and peaceful place where the birds come and drink at the fountain where we can sit with our friends and family and watch entertainment provided by the management. And the FOOD (no small matter) is good! Definitely several cuts above what one expects of an institution of this sort. All in all, by most standards. I would give Drake Terrace High marks! and I'm happy and grateful to be leaving here.

It was greatly difficult to transfer her across the Nation to rest closer to us here in San Francisco. She was super particular in picking what was "right" for herself and we are so grateful for that.

Whew thank you Aldersly for helping us make our transition easier than we had anticipated!
