Family Testimonials
My brother's health is failing with congestive heart failure. The hospital said we need to take him home. Here he is unable to stand. It takes two people to transfer him from bed to a chair. He's mostly bedridden. Since he is a longtime bachelor with elderly siblings, living at home or with one of them, was not an option. I found Tracy Raymond (Assisted Living Locators) through Seniorly. Everything the hospital said couldn't be done, she got done! Within a couple of days she found a wonderful adult family home and got him hooked up with a hospice program. He was hospitalized in Puyallup and the AFH was in Tumwater, so a different county, but she had no problem arranging things. She also picked up his discharge meds and delivered them to his new home. Thinking of his other immediate needs, she ordered some more hospital gowns that will arrive at the home Wednesday. Before getting Tracy's help, I felt helpless with deciding my brother's future. The more people I talked to at the hospital, the more confusing it got: "Just take him home", "Take him to a skilled nursing facility" (Which they were unable to find), "Take him home and hire in home care", "He needs to be out of here in the next 24-36 hours". Thanks to Tracy, my brother is in a good place with great people to care for him! Visiting today, I can already see an improvement in his attitude. He's not going to get better but his quality of life has definitely improved! I hope people with similar problems placing a relative after hospitalization, look beyond the care manager and find Tracy to do what the care manager can't or won't do!
I felt so overwhelmed and when you stepped in you made the whole process seem effortless (although I know it wasn't) and alleviated my stress and anxiety. You are in the right business. Thank you for helping families navigate this process. Thank you for being responsive and compassionate.

Esther Berko
South Indianapolis
Esther Berko was born in Ghana and raised in the small town of Abetifi, where she grew up in an extended family home under the loving care of her grandmother. Her early experiences shaped her into a caring, empathetic, and family-oriented person who finds motivation in seeing others happy and thriving. Esther earned her bachelor’s degree in business from Purdue University Global while attending to her two children and working her way up from an entry-level position to a managerial role. Throughout her career, she discovered that her greatest fulfillment comes from helping others navigate challenges. Whether supporting employees through workplace issues or simply listening with compassion, she always found joy in seeing the relief, gratitude, or excitement on their faces when they shared their progress. Her upbringing, the loss of her parents, parenting on her own, and her work with diverse teams have all shaped the way she shows up for others. These experiences strengthened her desire to uplift people, offer guidance, and bring calm where there is uncertainty. Today, Esther is committed to being both a role model and a steady presence for her children while pursuing meaningful work that aligns with her nature. She is passionate about becoming a resource for families navigating the end-of-life journey—helping them find appropriate care, easing their burdens, and improving their loved ones’ quality of life. Helping others gives her a deep sense of peace and purpose, and she can see herself doing it for the rest of her life. Outside of her work, Esther finds joy in gardening—a passion rooted in her upbringing, where she grew her own food. She loves nurturing plants from seedlings to full-grown bushes and takes pride in watching the earth bring life to her garden. Friends often tease her about her plant obsession, but to Esther, gardening represents growth, patience, and the beauty of nurturing something with care. Warm, grounded, and guided by compassion, Esther brings heart and purpose into everything she does.
