Assisted Living Locators is a free community resource that offers the expertise of a “trusted advisor” to help adult children and families navigate through the challenges of determining a senior loved one’s next steps.

“There are so many different options,” said Owner Shannon Avazian, referencing a Santa Clarita assisted living community, skilled nursing facility and even in-home care from a professional caregiver. “We’re here as a trusted advisor.”

Adult children often struggle with deciding when it’s the right time for their senior parents to make the move to an assisted living facility, particularly if their parents are in denial, according to Avazian.

“Our parents are telling us they’re fine,” she said, “but we really need to look at the signs around them.”

A few of these signs can include not paying their bills, not eating and not taking their medicine properly, Avazian continued.

“We need to really dive into that,” she said, noting that she specializes in helping the families she works with determine if assisted living is the appropriate next step given the senior’s current circumstances.

If the decision is made that the senior does need a Santa Clarita assisted living community for their own safety and wellbeing, Avazian helps the adult children talk to the senior about it, find the right facility for them, and make the transition as smooth as possible for all involved.

“(There’s) so much guilt associated when we have to tell our parents it’s time to go,” Avazian said. “So we’re here to help you every step of the way.”
