My name is Greg Raymer. I am a native of Bowling Green, Ky. and have lived here all my life.

From 2018 to 2023, I spent 5 years caring for my parents with my dad having dementia and mom having Alzheimer's. Along the way I spent many days touring communities and interviewing caregivers trying to figure out the best route to take for my parents. Looking back, I would have greatly benefited from a senior transition specialist to advise along the way.

That's why I started Senior Transition Advisers, to help people who are in the position I was in - at no cost to them - to make the right decision that needs to be made.

Finding the right senior care community for a loved one with dementia is a deeply emotional and complex decision. A senior placement specialist plays a vital role in guiding families through this overwhelming process. These professionals have in-depth knowledge of local care communities, their services, and their reputations—allowing them to match individuals with dementia to the communities best suited for their specific cognitive, medical, and emotional needs.

For adult children navigating this journey, the weight of finding the right care option can feel crushing—especially when layered with guilt, uncertainty, and time constraints. A senior placement specialist removes that burden by being the go-to expert, streamlining the process, asking the right questions, and advocating for the best possible care outcome. They conduct thorough assessments, consider financial and insurance factors, and coordinate tours and transitions.

Instead of sifting through countless options alone, families gain peace of mind knowing an experienced professional is guiding the process. With compassion and expertise, a placement specialist becomes not just a resource—but a partner in ensuring the aging parent receives dignified, personalized care, while their children are supported every step of the way. In such critical times, their guidance is more than helpful—it’s essential.
