Mike McClernon
When families need help finding Assisted Living, Memory Care, or Independent Living, I guide them through every step from assessing care needs to scheduling tours and making sure it's still the right fit even months after move-in. My help is always local, personal, and 100% free to families.
This work started with my own mom. When my sisters and I needed to find care for her, we saw how overwhelming, urgent, and unclear the process can be, and it changed everything. It is why I do this today, to bring families clarity, confidence, and compassion at one of the hardest moments in life.
What families say about Mike
The facilities that Mike showed me were clean and spacious, with a well thought-out layout. Mike is professional and attentive. Very knowledgeable. I highly recommend him
I was taken back in how informative Michael was with assisting me in finding an assistant living Facilityfor my father. I didn’t realize how much I needed help in making this decision. He was kind and caring and knew what questions should be asked and for that I’m so grateful, this is a very emotional time for me and he definitely made it easier.
Mike was wonderful to work with. As a single mom trying to plan next living arrangements for both of my parents, he made the booking of tours so easy and well coordinated. His many years of experience were shown through his additional questioning and explanations during each tour, making a difficult and overwhelming time much easier. I am grateful for his compassion and guidance and would highly recommend his services.
