Assisted Living Navigators, LLC was founded by Joanna Ripple in March 2016 to help seniors and their families navigate the often overwhelming process of finding the right next level of care. The company operates locally and provides personalized guidance for families considering Independent Living, Assisted Living, or Memory Care.

 

Assisted Living Navigators serves as a local, independent advocate for seniors and caregivers, helping families understand their options based on care needs, location, amenities, and affordability. Because the company is compensated by communities within its network, its services are offered at no cost to families.

 

What sets Assisted Living Navigators apart is its hands-on, compassionate approach. The team assists not only with selecting the right community, but also with the many details involved in transition planning. Services may include touring communities with clients, coordinating communication with facilities, helping families explore Veterans benefits when applicable, assisting with downsizing, arranging packing and moving support, and helping with the sale of a home when needed.

We protect your contact information throughout the search process so you can focus on us guiding you to make the best decision for your loved one - not responding to countless phone calls and emails from facilities where your information was e-blasted without your consent or knowledge. We handle the research, outreach, and communication with communities on your behalf and only share your information once you have selected a community and are ready to move forward. To ensure a streamlined, stress-free experience, we encourage families to avoid online inquiries and direct facility contact while working with us.

 

Assisted Living Navigators proudly serves families throughout Ohio and beyond. We also assist with transitions to relocate loved ones to Ohio or find appropriate senior living communities nationwide. Think of us as your personal, independent advocates—at zero cost to you. We can help you navigate this complicated process. Our loyalty belongs entirely to your family. We only succeed when we find a community where your loved one will genuinely thrive. Let us help you navigate back to making memories as a family.
