I want to thank Doug Sorenson for his help in finding a place for my mom. He was great. He drove over to LaQuinta to look at a place for my mother. He explained that he had sent another person to this facility and had heard good things about it. He also explained that he had never seen it and wanted to check it out. He also arranged transportation for my mother from the skilled nursing facility to the place she resides now. Thank you Doug.

Kendall was an invaluable key to me finding the right assisted living facility. He took the time to understand my needs and wants, and was strategically able to find just the right place for me! He knows the market and knows the players. I would recommend him to anyone.

Doug Sorensen is truly extraordinary. Helping a family find the right senior community for a parent is an emotional and deeply personal process, and Doug approached every step with compassion, patience, and genuine care. He went far beyond simply doing his job—he listened, understood our concerns, and treated my mother’s well-being as if it truly mattered to him personally. Doug is knowledgeable, responsive, and exceptionally kind, but what distinguishes him most is his heart. At a time when my family needed trustworthy guidance, he gave us reassurance, clarity, and unwavering support. I am profoundly grateful for everything he has done for my mother and for me. Anyone fortunate enough to work with Doug will quickly discover that he doesn’t merely help families find a senior community—he helps them find peace of mind.

As a discharge planner at a skilled nursing facility, I have had an excellent experience working with Kendall and his placement team. Their team is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly committed to finding safe and appropriate placements for patients based on their medical, financial, and personal needs. Communication is always prompt and professional, making the discharge process more efficient and smooth. They consistently provide timely updates, coordinate well with families and receiving facilities, and go above and beyond to ensure smooth transitions of care. I appreciate their reliability, compassion, and dedication to patient-centered service. Their partnership has been invaluable in helping us achieve successful discharge outcomes. I highly recommend this agency to healthcare professionals and families seeking quality placement assistance.

Kendall and his company were amazing, genuine, easy to work with, and I hope you read further to see why you should work with him too! Nobody ever thinks about "assisted living" until this situation hits your family like a tornado and you are trying to navigate the complexities of finding the right home for your senior parents.. Fortunately, we were connected with Kendall (Assisted living locators) who patiently and compassionately guided us on a search to find the right place for our mom who needed a new home with full time skilled care, which we were not personally equipped to do on our own. So Kendall stepped in, walked us through the process, listened to our needs, and provided different options. This is difficult because senior care is expensive and we (and all families) need to balance the best care they can find at a price that is manageable. So Kendall is super knowledgeable about all types of senior care across the industry and is also familiar with different specific homes & facilities in the Coachella Valley. He showed us places and introduced us to the caregivers/managers. We finally settled on a Board & Care facility which we are really happy with. Kendall has extensive corporate management experience and effectively acted as our representative and helped us go over the details and even negotiate the final price that worked for everyone. Its already been a little over a month and Kendall still checks on our mom, gets periodic updates from the facility, and stays in close touch with us to make sure we are doing well and happy with everything. If anything pops up, Kendall jumps in to help us out. Kendall is not the type of guy that just arranges the contract and then disappears. Kendall works so hard for us and has really become a part of our family now and he is always there if we need anything. I hope if your family is going through this type of situation that you give Kendall a chance, you'll be so happy you called him!

Kendall was an exceptional care coordinator during one of the hardest times in my life. He handled every detail of my mom’s transition. He assisted patiently with locating the perfect board and care. He helped coordinate her hospital discharge with thoroughness, compassion, and genuine dedication. He coordinated medical transport, gathered hospital paperwork, arranged necessary medical equipment, and personally ensured mom arrived home comfortably. Kendall consistently checked in, advocated for her needs, supported hospice coordination, and even offered heartfelt condolences when she passed. His care went far beyond his job description, and I’m deeply grateful for the kindness and professionalism he showed our family.

Our 77-year-old mother was hospitalized in Los Angeles and in need of long-term housing in Palm Springs upon discharge. We came to Assisted Living Locators and what started as a precarious ordeal has evolved into a truly supportive team effort in ensuring her safety and comfort. The home Kendall found ended up being an excellent fit. It's been some time since Mom moved in and we are still very happy with the compatibility of the match and compassionate care she has received thanks to his expert guidance. There's never a more important time to have true, good quality help than when securing senior care—we are blessed to have Kendall in our corner!

Doug was fantastic. I had to get my cousin into a memory care facility. I live in Pennsylvania and Doug went above and beyond to make this happen. He even set up Zoom visits of facilities for me. Then when I got to California for the move, he coordinated everything. He even brought my cousin his favorite smoothie to "smooth" the transition. I could not have done this from 2000 miles away without Doug! Thank you

We are so grateful for Kendall and everything he did to help our family. Finding the right board and care for my mom was such an emotional and stressful process, but Kendall made us feel supported every step of the way. He is incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and understanding. What really stood out was his dedication and compassion. When the first placement did not work out, he immediately stepped in and helped us find another place that was a much better fit. He truly cared about making sure my mom was comfortable and well cared for, and he never made us feel alone in the process. Kendall was patient, responsive, and always willing to answer questions and guide us through difficult decisions. I cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone needing help finding care for a loved one. He made a hard situation so much easier for our family.

Access the information required to pick the best support. Current assisted living communities are varied and can meet a broad spectrum of preferences.

Organizations We Sponsor

FAQ About Senior Centers and Assisted Living Facilities

Being well-informed is your ultimate asset when making these important decisions. Read our FAQs on nearby senior care and how to select the right one.

Contact Kendall Forbes

The average assisted living facility costs around $4,000 - $6,500 per month for round-the-clock care, which includes dining, housekeeping, and cognitive therapy. The monthly rate can vary widely based on the location, living situation, and level of the assistance provided. Our senior care advisors are ready to give insurance coverage information and financing plans as needed.

The terms for senior communities can be unclear because they're frequently spoken about in the same way. Senior centers are specialized facilities where seniors can engage in a variety of activities, fostering social bonds and vital community ties.

You may come across the acronym ADL when exploring assisted living facilities or during our consultation. Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) are the fundamental activities a person needs to perform regularly to live autonomously and maintain personal well-being. Medical professionals and assisted living centers often use them to determine a person's degree of self-sufficiency and the amount of care they may require. Simple needs could include medication reminders, while greater assistance might involve help with activities such as bathing and feeding.

Aging in place is a popular option, and the rise in professional care staff is making it possible for more people. The in-home services most commonly sought include everyday assistance with tasks such as meal preparation, tidying up, medication assistance, and transportation. Being at home enables seniors to maintain a high level of independence while receiving frequent interactions with caring care providers, which also gives their families enhanced reassurance.
