About Brooke Thomsen
As a Certified Senior Advisor (CSA) and Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP), I help seniors and their families navigate important life transitions. I specialize in guiding families through senior living options, including independent living, assisted living, and memory care, helping them find safe, comfortable environments that fit their individual needs. My services are provided at no cost to families, and my goal is to make these transitions as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Frequently asked questions
What does a senior living advisor do?
Brooke helps families compare senior living options, schedule and walk through tours, understand pricing and what's included, and coordinate the move into the right community. The service is local, free to families, and tailored to the situation. No national call center.
Is your service really free?
Yes. Families pay nothing. No consultation fee, no sign-up fee, no ongoing charge. Pricing at the community is the same whether you reach out directly or work with Brooke.
How quickly will I hear back?
Brooke aims to return calls and emails the same business day. Messages left after hours are returned the next morning. For urgent hospital-discharge timelines, Brooke can typically meet a 48-hour shortlist turnaround.
What if I don't live in the same state as my parent?
Out-of-state families are common. Brooke coordinates fully by phone, email, and video, including walk-through tours with whichever family member can be present. Decision conversations include everyone you want involved.
Do you help with Medicaid?
Yes. Many senior living communities accept Medicaid. Brooke can walk through eligibility, the typical timeline, and which communities have current Medicaid openings. Medicaid bed availability moves week to week, so timing matters.
What care types do you help place?
Assisted living, memory care, independent living, and skilled care. If your loved one's needs sit between categories, Brooke will talk through what's realistic, what each license actually covers, and what fits the household.
