What is a Senior Placement Specialist?

We are Golden Placements Services, GPS, a small boutique company. Our GPS senior living placement specialists guide individuals and their families through the complex process of finding ideal housing option fitting personal needs and budget.

We work for You, at no cost to YOU.

We do not do this often but you should know that other placement agencies work for a large sales force or telemarketer companies. They sell your contact information to an impersonal telemarketing call center. Those salespeople who are employed by a company to telephone people in order to persuade them to buy the company's products or services. This type of company pays their placement sales team to solely recommend there facilities! We are NOT like that.

What GPS does for the Portland Metro Northern California area is different.

  • Not only have we done real leg work for you but also we work to establish personal ties within our own community creating an ORGANIC network of senior care placement.
  • After our discovery meeting. Next, we personally guide you on tours of the facilities we feel will suit your needs best.
  • Certainly, we know from real personal experience how long it will take in traffic if your home is in Southwest Portland and your senior loved is placed in the Pearl District area of Portland for senior living.
  • We feel that making personal relationships with you and the people offering care is the only way to truly find an ideal situation for our people. Boots on the ground relationships keep us all healthier.
  • Continuity of care after placement! WE ARE Here for YOU. Having healthy and long-lasting relationships in your senior loved ones life can act as a buffer against the stresses of life.
