Senior relocation is a delicate matter that requires specialized expertise.
In this episode, I interview George Pizzo of Caring Transitions on how they handle senior relocation with dignity and respect. It shows up in giving the senior(s) involved the following:
- A sense of belonging
- Personal significance
- Reasonable security
In this way, they help older adults and their families navigate the relocation process, protecting what matters most, so the transition feels less overwhelming and more humane.
George and I have worked together on many transitions, and I have a strong respect for how his company addresses these issues.
