Senior Care Consultant - Diane O'Dea, MA
When Diane’s mother was diagnosed with Parkinson’s; it threw her family into turmoil. She had to find care for her mother, sell the house, find out what to do with all the stuff, and take care of financial matters. After this experience, Diane realized how stressful and overwhelming it is for families to sort through senior housing and the issues that go along with it.
