We were at a loss in regards to getting my partners sister into a nursing home after long months of fruitless enquiries, phone calls/emails never answered and so on. And to complicate things, she SMOKED! No-one wants smokers (and I don’t blame them!). But they could at least have the decency to reply. Then, I found the COTA magazine on Aging, and my solution. Employ someone to help you! So I made some enquiries and settled on Vanessa. We met up with her at her office, she took the information we had, told us what else we needed, and we were on the way. I am not exactly sure of the time frame but within 4 -6 weeks she had found 2 places which we looked at, and chose the 2nd, mainly because it was somewhat closer to where we live, 1.5 hours out of Perth! The first one also reluctantly allowed smokers, but by then sister had involuntarily ceased. YAY!! Vanessa was also under the pump as we were due to go on a long planned trip within a short period and hoped to get this done before then. Sister moved into care the day we flew out!! Vanessa was very professional, easy to chat to, and kept us informed. We were so happy wth her service. Best thing we ever did, and well worth the small expense. We would not hesitate to recommend her. Thanks for everything Vanessa! Very much appreciated!
Vanessa is a caring and empathetic lady.
She was very helpful and gave me advice and support when I really needed it. I honestly recommend her talents.
Thank you Vanessa.

Navigate Aged Care Solutions was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Vanessa was wonderful in explaining the entire, complicated, aged care process, breaking down each step clearly and patiently. Her expertise and compassion made a daunting experience feel manageable and gave our family real peace of mind. I highly recommend her services to anyone navigating the aged care system for a loved one.
When it became clear that mum was going to need permanent care, contacting Vanessa was the best thing we could have done. She has years of experience in the industry and made us aware of necessary steps along the way that we hadn’t considered, as well as having a very good knowledge of the Aged Care facilities in our area.
Vanessa made a difficult process seamless, and we can thoroughly recommend using Navigate Aged Care Solutions

Absolutely fantastic service ! Finding a home for a parent is very daunting and takes time . Not something most have these days with the pressures of life . Made a very stressful situation painless and easy . Thank you so much.
I would highly recommend engaging with Vanessa to take the stress out of navigating your way through this aged care minefield finding placement for your loved one.
Like many families, it has been a journey for us trying to navigate the aged care system to find an aged care facility for my Dad. We thank our lucky stars that we found Vanessa at Navigate Aged Care Solutions to guide us through this process. My family and I couldn’t have asked for a more professional, compassionate and knowledgeable placement consultant. Through both her contacts and current accreditation information, Vanessa was able to make recommendations of residential aged care facilities, and assist us as much or as little as we required, and we appreciated this flexibility. I can’t recommend Vanessa enough – she was a delight to deal with, and my elderly Dad now refers to her as ‘the guru’ – and he’s not easily pleased! Thank you, Vanessa.
