Marianne

"We can’t rave enough about Monisha. She has been extremely professional & helpful, making sure we access all Medicare benefits that my husband is entitled to as well as offering guidance to our caregivers & therapists. She is also very helpful & kind to me in my role as spouse & caregiver."

Nancy C.

"I cannot speak highly enough about Rhonda Guzman. My husband had a cerebral hemorrhage and brain surgery 3 months ago. That in itself is horrifying. I had no idea the nightmare I was about to face. After 90 days, I was told that I was required to pay $19,000 per month for long-term care. I reached out to Rhonda for help. She stepped in, calmed me down, and fully supported me with advice, offering as much assistance as I deemed necessary. She went to his current facility to meet him and to speak to the staff. She determined the level of care that he needed and provided me with a list of facilities to check out. With her help, my son and I made a decision. She assured me that she would take care of his transfer. Not only did she make sure his records were transmitted to the new place, (which required several trips to both facilities), she also visited him the day he moved to make sure he was provided an extended bed and oversized wheelchair. Truthfully, I do not know what I would have done without her help. I cannot recommend Rhonda Guzman highly enough. This is a journey no one should face without someone with her level of compassion and expertise."

"Rhonda Guzman was an actual godsend to us during our mom’s decline and recent passing. Our family had zero experience with cognitive decline and its challenging manifestations, and throughout an extremely difficult two-year period, Rhonda was our rock. She kept us calm, gave us usable answers, connected us to real solutions, and—because we live several states away—often served as our in-person proxy, like a genuine family member, which, quite frankly, she now is. When we had decisions to make and needed clear, medically-informed information about the disease, Rhonda had it. When we were emotionally weak and about to crumble, Rhonda was unfailingly understanding, patient, strong, and cheerful. It is no exaggeration to say that Rhonda, along with her superb assistant Monisha, literally supported our mom and us every step of the way. We lost our mom last November, and we are still processing her loss, but every time we’re overcome with mourning, we’re also overcome with gratitude for the gentle yet powerful partnership we forged with these caregivers. Through our mom’s last months, Rhonda was as important to her as her own children, and when we scatter mom’s ashes, Rhonda will be there. If you or your family is seeking help for an elder in decline, Rhonda Guzman is the angel you need."

Debbie

“Monisha and Rhonda, sharing my appreciation with both of you as you help us provide love and care for my mom.”

Kevin

"I want to thank you for all your help with my mother, Dana, during her final years of her life. You were invaluable to my sister and I. Many times did we express to each other our admiration for the way you effortlessly blend professional knowledge with true concern and companion. Only you could have helped us navigate the bewildering experience that was our mother's cognitive and physical decline. I cannot imagine it to have been any other way. Above all, however, I want to thank you for becoming a true friend to our mother. As you know, she could be quite stubborn. She did not rest easy living in a new home or dealing with her cognitive and physical decline, and she was reluctant to let new people into her life. Yet, through your generosity, kindness, and humility, you were able to transcend her barriers and provide the kind of support that could only be offered by a friend. I know she came to regard you as just that, someone with whom she could share her private thoughts and feelings. She trusted you, which was no small accomplishment. I know that if she could have stepped back into her pre-dementia self and been able to look at her current condition, she would have shared with you directly the comfort and joy she got from your unwavering companionship. I hope this card finds you and your family well. Looking forward to reconnecting when we return to Chicago to spread Dana’s ashes.”

John

"My brain hurts from all the knowledge and skills to continue in my profession. The reality of learning this topic is sad, but necessary to create the shell for oneself in this industry."

Kimberly

"Thank you for so much for loving our mom as much as we do! Don't know what we'd do without you."

Erika

"Thank you for your love and kindness toward our mom and by extension, me. I am comforted through my sadness, by thoughts of how her last years were so much better because of you."

Sandi

"We could not have navigated the dementia journey without you. You helped us understand what we were facing, how to choose what was right and walked with us every step of the way."

Lester

"You have been such a shining star in our laborious journey here. You have helped us all sleep at night knowing you have dad’s best interests at heart and are able to pave the way for us as our advocate!"

Donna

"Thank you so much for all your thoughtful insights shared today. We find our time with you very beneficial. You bring us both comfort and confidence as we prepare for Mom's transition and work out the fine details."

Mary Jane

"Hi Rhonda, I've been thinking about you and wanted to send positive vibes for a successful transition with your mother. I think this must be very difficult for you and your family. You support us in our journey, and I want to support you in return, it's how we get through this journey."

Dennis

"Thanks for all you did for Jim. Especially for your advice and counsel to me. It meant a lot and eased my role enormously. I will certainly remain in touch."
