Our family recently needed to make the difficult decision of having our mom placed in a memory care facility due to being diagnosed with dementia. We were devastated and completely overwhelmed. Fortunately, we were given Dawn's contact information and after our initial phone call I knew we were in good hands. Dawn is amazing, caring and so very knowledgeable. Within a couple of days she had several potential facilities for our mom. We were able to place mom in wonderful caring place. We would have been lost without Dawn's help and we are so very grateful to her. Our mom is doing fantastic and has

Our family had such a positive experience working with Dawn of Opening New Doors earlier this year. Dawn's experience and thoughtfulness helped us focus on an assisted living facility able to meet our Dad's care level needed. Thank you for everything!

I am a Community Relations Director working in Assisted Living and Memory Care and have worked with Dawn and her clients for a few years now. By the time her families reach me they are already so knowledgeable about the industry and know what to expect, which is so important! As a fellow professional in the healthcare industry, working with Dawn is smooth, and communication is clear and easy.

Dawn was a lifesaver helping my family find a great assisted living facility for my father. Her knowledge and customer service is excellent. I appreciate that Dawn took the time to get to know my father to help identify the right option. Thank you!
