Working with Senior Move Managers®
What is a Senior Move Manager? A Senior Move Manager® is a trained and experienced member of the National Association of Senior & Specialty Move Managers® (NASMM). Senior Move Managers® specialize in helping older adults downsize and transition to independent and assisted living communities or smaller homes. They relieve the burdens of moving when there are years of memories and possessions to sort through. NASMM members also help their clients downsize, organize, and simplify their current home when aging-in-place.
Why are Senior Move Managers needed now? Signifi cant physical and emotional obstacles exist in late-life transitions – rarely does someone wake up after 30 or 40 years in their home and say – honey, let’s move. Something has happened to precipitate
the need for this move – loss of spouse, onset of physical issues, cognitive or chronic disease coupled with the fact that we are living longer have generated a need for Senior Move Management®.
Today, many families are geographically dispersed, and adult children are often not able to help in relocating. In addition, if an illness or death of a loved one precipitates the move, the family is likely to be emotionally and physically drained.
Senior Move Managers® fi ll the gaps to ease the transition, supplying a multi-faceted approach to the move process from space planning to post- move support and advocacy. NASMM members represent the most qualifi ed, ethical, and capable Move Managers in this rapidly growing profession.
