It
had long been a desire of the family to relocate my father to the East Coast.
ASSIST was fully supportive and proactive in making the necessary arrangements.
Their single focus at all times was to ensure that my father was medically
able to travel and that his journey would be a comfortable and enjoyable
one.
It
is often the little things that really count; going for a ride to a favorite
place, getting a milkshake, being certain that his eyeglasses fit properly.
It is impossible to detail all of the important things that ASSIST did for
my father. The critical issue is that they did these things that we would
do had we been present. Family members discovered most of these deeds after
the fact from other sources.
My
father is now with us, in a nursing home on the East Coast. Despite
the numerous family members now constantly with him, we miss the dedication
and compassion of ASSIST. I wish there were some way to convince them they
should start an East Coast operation. We would sign up as number one in
the area!
Their
professionalism, coupled with a true dedication to the client's well being
was far above and beyond anything for which we could have hoped. ASSIST
is no longer a pseudo family member of the McAdams clan; they are now full-fledged
components of our family.
Anyone
in need of a family ombudsman would be well served by the ASSIST organization.
Please feel free to contact me at any time should I be able to provide any
more detailed information, answer any questions, etc.
