Advocacy and Follow-Up

Speaking Up for Your Aging Loved One

Selecting the right housing for your elderly loved one in the Phoenix metropolitan area can be incredibly stressful. The average person does not know all the ins and outs of senior care. How can you be sure that you are picking the option that best meets your loved one’s needs, budget, and preferences? You need support from a professional, one with years of experience finding care in Phoenix, Mesa, Scottsdale, and elsewhere in Maricopa County. You need a compassionate advocate who will safeguard your loved one’s wellbeing and quality of life. You need a placement specialist!

The Valley of the Sun’s Placement Experts

Placement specialists are professionals with expertise in all aspects of senior care: from vetting potential assisted living communities and recommending appropriate levels of care, to touring prospective facilities with family members and helping them create a transition move plan. Integrity Senior Placement’s specialist, David, is a leader in these services and more! Before joining Integrity, David was a Phoenix-based case manager in long-term care, assisted living, hospice, and memory care. Alongside Integrity’s owner, Reina, David has helped countless seniors in Phoenix age with dignity.

Integrity Guarantees the Success of Your Placement

Integrity Senior Placement has built a reputation for securing successful senior placements in the Phoenix metropolitan area. Our success is due in large part our unique client-centered model, which includes robust advocacy and follow-up:

Advocacy:

As your placement expert, David’s only goal is finding the perfect fit for you or your loved one. He gets to know each client as a person before recommending placement options; in addition to assessing their mental and physical healthcare needs, he seeks to understand their personal preferences, goals for the future, and financial situations. Throughout the care selection process, David advocates for his clients and asks the questions they may not know to ask.

Follow-Up:

Integrity Senior Placement is not just satisfied with finding the perfect placement in the short-term; we need to know that our clients are happy and thriving long-term! David will check in with you or your loved one immediately after move-in and again a few weeks later to ensure that your placement is everything you were expecting it to be. If you are not satisfied, David will act as your advocate to solve any problems.

Is a Placement Advocate Right for My Family?

Are you weighing senior care options in the Phoenix metropolitan area and unsure which questions you should be asking? Do you worry that once the paperwork is signed, no one will be checking that your loved one is truly thriving? Would it help to have an experienced professional follow up after the move and step in if something is wrong? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you need an advocate.

Common questions

Questions families ask about advocacy and follow-up

What does a placement specialist actually do?
Placement specialists carry expertise across senior care: vetting potential assisted living communities, recommending appropriate levels of care, touring prospective facilities with family members, and helping build a transition move plan. Our specialist, David, was a Phoenix based case manager in long term care, assisted living, hospice, and memory care before joining Integrity. Alongside Reina, Integrity's owner, he has helped countless Valley seniors age with dignity.
What happens after my loved one moves in?
We are not finished when the paperwork is signed. David checks in with you or your loved one immediately after move in, then again a few weeks later, to confirm the placement is everything you expected. If it is not, he acts as your advocate to solve the problem. Knowing whether a client is thriving long term is the point of follow up.
I do not know what questions to ask. Can you help?
That is much of the job. The average person does not know the ins and outs of senior care, so we ask the questions you may not know to ask. David gets to know each client as a person before recommending options, weighing mental and physical health needs alongside personal preferences, goals for the future, and financial circumstances.
What if my loved one is unhappy where we placed them?
Tell us. Sometimes a person does need another placement, whether because of extreme behaviors, a change in personal finances, or a level of care change as a disease progresses. Our advocacy does not end at move in, so we will work the problem with the community first and look for a better fit if that is what it takes.
Where can my family learn more about senior care before deciding?
Members of our team speak as guest panelists at free webinars run by Arizona Senior Resources, an affiliated part of our connected Arizona senior care network. Topics include Medicare planning, senior living options, and care navigation, with professionals from across the field. There is never pressure or obligation. It is simply a way to learn at your own pace.

What families say

Reina found my father a fantastic assisted living directed placement in record time. I am so grateful to have such a compassionate professional in our corner. She worked for his benefit and kept us informed every step of the way. I am very pleased with his new home, and so is he.
Dawn P. · May 2021
Transitioning a loved one to senior care is more than difficult. There are both emotional components and a mountain of details that seemed daunting at first glance. David made the entire process straight forward with an advocate role in finding a place that fit our needs. The home he found for our loved one is fantastic! Thank You!!
Brian T. · August 2021
I have used David Piontek several times for placement needs. David consistently exceeds all expectations. David is motivated by love, compassion, and is an advocate at heart. He is a true professional and a joy to work with.
Jonathan G. · June 2018
Top notch company. We dealt with David, what a compassionate and professional person! Found a wonderful placement for our relative & didn't waste our time with looking at facilities that wouldn't be a good fit. Highly recommend and would definitely use this company again.

What people are saying

Integrity Placement exceeded our expectations. We called with an urgent need to relocate our 88 year old mother with advanced Parkinson's disease, dementia, rheumatoid arthritis, and a heart condition to a safe, capable and conducive environment. Having changed ownership and management, her then current facility had dramatically declined, replaced administration with unethical leadership, and become an elder-care warehouse. David listened to our list of needs, our experiences, and our hopes. Within a week Integrity Placement had researched potential fits, contacted AND prepared several to address our needs, guided us through on-site reviews, and helped us walk through the decision process. Every alternative we visited was exceptional and prepared to address our specific financial and medical needs. We found a match a could not be happier or more relieved.
Steven F.Phoenix Arizona, Memory Care Placement
David is amazing to work with. He made a huge difference in a very difficult time for our family. We were amazed at his efficiency in finding options for care homes and couldn't have found such a wonderful option without his guidance. But most of all, his kindness and warmth was everything to us. We will remain forever grateful.
Anna & Jeff KPhoenix, Arizona Assisted Living Placement
Reina is truly our guardian angel. Fortunately, she was referred to me to help find a placement for my brother who was being discharged from a north Scottsdale facility at a moments notice. Having to deal with a facility and insurance who don't have your loved ones best interest at heart is maddening. I was panicked. Reina calmed my fears and was instrumental in finding a wonderful placement for Joe. She stayed connected with me during the entire process and continues to be a part of our lives. I appreciate her and the value of Integrity Placement and know this transition went as smoothly as it did because of Reina. Her dedication to her clients and families, her knowledge, honesty, patience, and professionalism are truly incredible. I can't thank Reina enough for how much she helped our family.
Colleen DNorth Scottsdale, Arizona Senior Placement
The folks at Integrity Placement can be described in one word, AMAZING! They made an extremely difficult and overwhelming situation very easy for our family. We had to place our mom in an assisted living situation very quickly. Both David and Reina were awesome, extremely responsive and compassionate. David helped us find a place that is a wonderful new home for our mom. We would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone!!
Toni MPhoenix, AZ Assisted Living Placement
Reina from Integrity Placement was excellent in guiding us through the process of appropriately placing our loved one in assisted living. She worked closely with the centers we toured, was punctual and valued our time commitments. Throughout this process she was efficient, accessible and professional. She truly cares about her clients and is very supportive. Thank you Reina!
