Ian is a gracious, thoughtful professional who truly cares about families. He helps adult children navigate the challenges of caring for aging parents and connects them with trusted local resources. I’m grateful to know Ian as a trusted colleague and resource. We would not hesitate to recommend his work.
I contacted Ian recently when my mom was hospitalized unexpectedly, and he listened carefully to her situation, then quickly connected me with a trusted local caregiving agency, a home health company, and a care manager. He followed up several times to see if I needed anything else and offered to help with more connections. He was such a helpful person and professional in a seriously stressful time. I was especially relieved to have those personal recommendations and for the options he offered us for our current situation and for the future. If you’re an adult child navigating the needs of aging parents, Ian can definitely help.
Ian is truly one of a kind! His firsthand experience, gained over many years of caring for his father and other family members, has made him an incredible resource for families navigating care for their aging loved ones. He is gentle, kind, and deeply committed to helping people through this overwhelming process. He offers an outstanding service by teaching adult children how to navigate our incredibly complex healthcare, insurance, and senior care systems. Having access to his knowledge, support, and organizational skills makes a tremendous difference for families in crisis. I especially appreciate that he offers clear service packages so families know exactly what they’re getting upfront, with simple and transparent billing. I would not hesitate to recommend Ian to any family seeking guidance on how best to care for their aging parents. I hope many more people can benefit from working with him.
Ian made navigating elder care so much easier for our family. He’s knowledgeable, compassionate, and effective—helped us tackle challenges that once felt overwhelming. Clear communication, genuine empathy, and top-notch professionalism. I’d recommend him to anyone needing elder care guidance.
We contacted Ian when trying to plan further for my Mom's needs a year after my Dad died. Shortly before that we had moved both parents from a senior community with very uneven assisted living services and constant upcharging. We found a much better community with superb care where my Mom continues on her own, but we were facing upcoming decisions about financing her care beyond the next 18 months. Ian was very knowledgeable, compassionate and effective in helping us sort through options and ultimately avoid moving her from a wonderful senior community where she's happily and healthily settled. As her needs change and as other family members need planning we will always turn to Ian for his intelligence, expertise and care. We've used our eldercare consultants before with much less success. I can't recommend Ian highly enough.
