The Texas Placement Intensive

A named shortlist of licensed Texas communities that actually have a bed for your person, with real prices in writing, verified by a human on the phone, inside two weeks.

Free for familiesThe community your person moves into pays our fee, after move-in

Placement costs your family nothing. The community your person moves into pays our placement fee, equal to the first month’s rent, only after a confirmed move-in. That is disclosed in writing below before you see a single name.

Who this is for: Families placing a parent or spouse in Texas assisted living or memory care who want the search done properly once, rather than fielding calls from six referral sites that sold their number.

What you actually get

A 90-minute intake with Erika, not a form

Care needs, the real budget, the geography that actually works for whoever visits, and the things families do not put in writing. This is the call that determines whether the rest is any good.

A written shortlist of five to eight licensed communities

Each one checked against the HHSC license record for current license status, type, capacity, and memory care certification, with the license number printed so you can verify it yourself.

Current availability, confirmed by phone, not by a database

Somebody calls every community on the shortlist and asks whether they have a bed, for this level of care, in this window. A directory cannot tell you that. This is most of the work.

Real pricing in writing from each community

Base rate, care level add-ons, community fee, and what triggers an increase. The number families get surprised by is almost never the base rate.

Tours scheduled, with Erika on the call

Tours booked around your schedule, with the questions to ask written out beforehand, and Erika reachable during or straight after each one.

Your residency agreement read before you sign it

Reviewed against the Texas disclosure requirements for assisted living, with anything unusual flagged in plain words. This is not legal advice and is not a substitute for a lawyer, and it is said that way to you too.

Thirty days of move-in coordination

The month after the decision is the month things go wrong. Medication lists, the move itself, the first care-plan meeting, and someone to call.

Your disclosures, in writing, before anything starts

Texas law (Business and Commerce Code chapter 121) requires a senior living referral agency to give you these in a written document. Here they are on the page, not in a link you would have to go find.

What this service is
A referral, advisory, and placement service for families searching for senior living in Texas. Erika Crossley researches, verifies, shortlists, arranges tours, and coordinates the move. She does not own, operate, or manage any senior living community, and does not hold, and will not accept, a power of attorney for you or hold your property in any capacity.

Who pays the fee
The community your person moves into pays our placement fee, equal to the first month’s rent, after a confirmed move-in. Your family pays nothing for placement, now or ever. No home health agency or hospice pays anything, and nothing is paid for a ranking or for visibility of any kind. Whether a community pays our fee never changes whether it fits you, and you may choose any community, on our list or off it, at no cost to you.

Private consulting is separate and optional
If you choose to hire Erika for private one-on-one consulting, it is $250 per hour, paid up front. That is an optional service you ask for. It is not a fee for placing you: the only placement fee is the one the community pays, described above. You can be placed in full without ever buying it, and Erika’s view of any community is the same whether or not that community pays our fee.

You can stop at any time
You may stop using this service at any time, for any reason or none, without cause and without penalty. If you tell us to stop, we tell every community we already referred you to that you have stopped using us.

The shortlist is not every community
The list you receive may not include all communities in the area that meet your stated preferences and needs. It is the set worth your time given what you said in intake, and every community on it is separately verifiable through the free directory and the state license record.

Only licensed communities
You will not be referred to an unlicensed facility. Every community on the shortlist carries a current Texas HHSC license, and its license number is printed for you to check.

How this starts

A short call first, always. It costs you nothing, and Erika does not take on a family she has not talked to. If it is a fit, intake is booked on that call. Nothing is ever invoiced to your family for placement.

Call 346-546-5654

Or send the form below and Erika calls you, usually the same day.

Separate and optional: Private consult with Erika, $250 per hour

An hour of Erika’s time, one on one, for the questions a placement does not cover: a second opinion on a community you already found, a residency agreement walked through with you in plain language, questions about a care plan that is not working, or a situation with no move in it yet. $250, paid up front, for one hour; more time is a new booking. Never required for placement.

Book a consult: call 346-546-5654 Book a consult by email Pay for the hour, $250

Pays for one hour on a secure Stripe page; Erika aims to email you within one business day to set the time. The hour is sold by Erika Crossley as private consulting, not by the placement service, and it is plain-language guidance: Erika is not an attorney, a nurse, or a doctor. Her view of any community is the same whether or not that community pays our placement fee. This is not a placement fee. Placement stays free for your family whether or not you ever book an hour.

Tell Erika what is happening

Enough detail that the first call is useful. She will tell you straight if this is not worth your money.
