Overview of Sunshine Senior Placement

Sunshine Senior Placement, a distinguished senior placement agency in Florida, brings over 150 years of combined expertise to find the perfect living arrangement for seniors. Sunshine Senior Placement collaborates with over 500 top-tier independent living, assisted living, and memory care communities to discover the ideal home for your loved ones. Their Senior Placement Specialists guide clients and their families through suitable senior living options. They then organize tours of 3-4 well-suited communities. 

Their complimentary service begins with an initial phone consultation, during which they gather crucial information about the senior’s current living conditions, medical and care requirements, financial limitations, lifestyle preferences, and desired location. This conversation typically involves adult children searching for their parents or direct interactions with seniors seeking placement. Subsequently, a home visit allows them to conduct a more comprehensive assessment, covering physical health, medications, memory, and financial aspects.
