Even if you’re not a resident of San Diego County, your local community should have a listing of free senior housing placement agencies such as those listed below. These referrals can really ease the amount of stress that you have in planning for your parents’ care. You may find places not even listed in any of the publications you may come across. Free is free and we all like free information!
