I was asked recently in a Feed Forward card how I am compensated. First, by the senior living communities I work with. They value the fact that I bring them residents who are truly excellent fits for their community, and in return, they pay me a percentage of the first month’s fees when I help place someone there. Second, clients directly compensate me for specific consulting services like Medicaid Coaching, Skilled Nursing Facility Placement, Family Mediation, Care Coordination, and Peace of Mind Visits. These services are offered either as a flat fee of $1,900 or on retainer, depending on the level of support needed. It’s important to note that about 85% of my services are completely free to families. This allows them to focus on finding the right care solutions without the added stress of upfront costs, making the process much more manageable during an already difficult time.
