Concierge Services
What we do
We provide free consultations to seniors and families interested in exploring Assisted Living options in Massachusetts. Families are welcome to utilize our full range of concierge services, or Back Nine Nurses can tailor a plan to meet your priorities and budget. We provide Geriatric Care Management Services exclusively to Assisted Living Community Residents residing on the South Shore of Massachusetts and Cape Cod.
Why seniors and families seek professional assistance when exploring assisted living options
Assisted living communities are unique settings that differ in cost, levels of care, types of assistive devices, ownership, size, policies and procedures, management styles, staffing, culture, safety strategies, technology and building design. These factors can result in vast differences from one community to another. Families choose advocacy assistance in order to save time, confusion, stress and money.
What Makes Us Different?
We do not accept commissions or contributions from Assisted Living Communities when referring families. This allows Back Nine Nurses to solely advocate for each family’s best interests and options. We are experienced Assisted Living and Memory Care Registered Nurses and Certified Dementia Practitioners, professionally trained in health assessments, service plan development, daily operations and Massachusetts Regulations. Providing services and advocacy before, during and after a transition into your new Community allows us to deliver a comprehensive experience with ultimate peace of mind.
