What Our Clients Say
Real stories from families we've helped
"Because someone handed me the flyer about Care Patrol a few days prior to my husband’s release from the hospital, I was able to get the help I needed to place my him from the hospital to the right Memory Care Community because of Carrie from CarePatrol. The hospital was no help in guiding me or having the knowledge of care facilities beyond the hospital care. They hand an emotional family member/advocate a paper with 5 counties and 20-30 places in the area and say you pick. This placement is so crucial for our loved ones and we all need that guidance that Care Patrol gave us. Carrie made calls on a late Friday after our first phone call and we had a tour at Azura in Beloit the following Morning, she then called the hospital case worker and stopped any further placement as we were looking into Azura because of Care Patrol. I have given out your flyer to many health care providers, friends and family. I am forever grateful for Carrie’s kindness and prompt help in placing my husband! Everyone I have spoken to has never heard of your company/service and what you do is amazing! I’ll keep telling people of our life changing experience and the help and guidance Carrie at Care Patrol provided for us. Thank you, Vick"

"Carrie has helped me with trying to place a friend in a quality facility. She is not only professional but so very kind. Carrie understands what Dementia is not only for the person involved but to the care givers. She will help above and beyond in whatever capacity. She helped me I know she can help you too."
"Carrie was very informative and helpful with the needs I needed for my elderly Mother. We visited many assisted living facilities and it was very reassuring for my Mother. She responded in a timely manner to get the ball rolling."
"Carrie was fantastic to work with and I highly recommend her. She was available day or night to answer questions and was always quick to respond. She educated our family on the facilities that might be best for our loved one and then scheduled the tours. And, even after the placement, she follow-up to make sure it was a good fit. Because of her expertise, we made the decision in days, not weeks, on which facility was the best fit and we don’t regret our choice at all. It was a very positive experience and I would highly recommend using Carrie."
"Carrie was great! She was highly recommended by someone at UW. I called her and she met with my mom the same day. She was extremely supportive and was able to answer a lot of questions for us. She checked in regularly on mom’s progress and visited her several times. She is very knowledgeable and caring."
"We were kept apprised of every visit to every facility. The communication was fantastic. In the end we found the right facility. Carrie was great to deal with through the entire process. I would highly recommend CarePatrol."
"Our senior advisor, Carrie Grubanowitch was wonderfully helpful in finding a place quickly that was a perfect fit for my Mom’s needs. She went above and beyond visiting my Mother even while I was away. Very caring!"
