Helen has been a great advocate and advisor for both myself and my elderly mother who was in the process of selecting and planning a move to an assisted-living facility. Since I live a few states away, she was very helpful in helping my mother choose a place and provided encouragement, reassurance, guidance and support as she navigated through the daunting and overwhelming process of leaving her home of 40 years when I wasn’t able to be there. My mother appreciated her warmth and understanding of her concerns during a difficult and scary time.

Helen is incredibly knowledgeable, gentle, and tactful with a delicate subject. She didn’t try to over sell. She made my father feel empowered. We got some good resources and we know what to do next.

Helen Hames is a very qualified individual. Her knowledge and willingness to help others goes above what you expect. She is kind and thorough in everything she does. It is well worth your time to contact her; she will make the process easier.

At a time where our family felt so vulnerable, Helen was a voice of reason and clarity. Her guidance as we transitioned our parents from their home of 50+ years to assisted living was beyond helpful. We found an excellent new space for my parents to enjoy their next phase of life.
