I would like to thank you so much for the wonderful
care you made available for my sister....finding accommodations,
the wonderful care..., checking on her medications, consulting
with her doctor, finding the musical therapist, and many more.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you and I believe (my sister)
would not have had the great care had it not been for you

Peter Silin's Personal Experience
I know what caregiving feels like on a personal level. I have been a caregiver, to parents who died after chronic illness and to a grandmother with Alzheimer's disease. In my career, I have seen families experiencing confusion, grief, pain, and anger as they tried to meet the needs of a loved one, and tried to navigate through the maze of long term care. I have seen inadequate and hasty assessments lead seniors, families and professionals to make inappropriate and sometimes life threatening decisions. I have seen how the system fails people and how a lack of knowledge about the system and aging can lead them to places where no one should have to go. I founded Diamond Geriatrics so you could have a choice about whether those things happened to you.
