Your Guide to Finding the Right Senior Care Community

Sage introduced themselves to our rehab facility with a very strong presentation on how hard they work to not only assist us as social workers but also by providing the patient and family with such care and consideration in locating an alternate living situation tailored to meet their needs. I gave Sage a call that very afternoon and offered them a chance to prove exactly what they could do... and the rest is history! Sage goes above and beyond in so many aspects of their process, literally taking the lead and handling everything from top to bottom. Communication is constant, and the turnaround time has always been outstanding. There are companies out there that provide a similar product; I say similar because I don't mean the same. I don't think any other company can do what Sage does the way they do it. Sage is our solid go-to because we know the outcome will always be successful.  

SAGE was a lifesaver! A friend saw their Facebook page and sent it to me while I was in the hospital after a fall. I had been caring for my dad full-time and was panicked knowing he was home alone. I messaged SAGE and got a reply within minutes. Rita was kind, patient, and immediately got to work. Within 2 days, she toured 3 communities, sent me videos, and found the perfect respite stay for Dad. Fast forward, I'm recovered, but he doesn't want to leave! He's made friends, plays piano, joined a men's club, and met a lady friend. I never thought I'd get to just be "the daughter" again, but thanks to SAGE, I am.  

I've had the privilege of working with Rita and can confidently say she is one of the most insightful and dependable senior advisors I've encountered. Her depth of knowledge, calm nature, and unwavering support have been instrumental in guiding families to find a perfect community. Rita has a rare ability to listen carefully, ask the right questions, and offer guidance that is both practical and empowering. Whether navigating complex challenges or providing day-to-day encouragement, she leads with integrity, empathy, and wisdom. She has made a lasting impact, and I'm truly grateful for her guidance. Anyone who has the opportunity to learn from or work with Rita is in excellent hands.  

When you're facing tough, emotional decisions about a loved one's care or future, it's easy to feel overwhelmed - but SAGE steps in with the clarity, professionalism, and compassion you didn't even know you needed. They are the go-to team when you need guidance during some of life's most difficult moments. Whether you're navigating healthcare options, long-term planning, or simply figuring out what comes next, SAGE brings expertise and heart to every step of the process. Rita has so much experience and makes you feel so comfortable and heard! I am beyond grateful for their support and would recommend them to anyone who wants trusted, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring professionals by their side.  

Working with Rita and her team at Sage Senior Advisors has been amazing! As a private home care provider and as a daughter in the community, I value partnerships built on trust and shared values. Their focus is on what's best for the client and comes from the heart. It takes a village and Sage Senior Advisors is a great asset to our village!

Sage Senior Advisors has been a godsend! I don't know what I would have done without Rita Rivera. I am in the process of transferring my father from a rehab to assisted living. I was panic-stricken and clueless as to this process. Rita has literally held my hand through the entire ordeal. She has promptly returned texts and phone calls no matter when I call. Absolutely amazing customer service! She has located a suitable facility for my father that was within our budget, is handling all the paperwork, and ordering any necessary equipment. She has been the facilitator between my father and the assisted living community, and she even assisted with "the talk". Though we are still in the process, I am confident that with Rita's help, we will get through this, and I know she will be available in the future. Thank you, Sage Senior Solutions, and thank you, Rita!  

Rita from SAGE has truly been a Godsend! My mom’s health declined quickly. She has been in and out of the hospital and rehab. I knew she wasn’t going to be able to continue living at home. Rita arranged tours of assisted living facilities I was interested in seeing and even accompanied me on the tours. Afterwards, she provided me with an overview of our visits with the pros and cons I mentioned after each visit. I was able to make a decision on the best match for my mom. Thank you Rita!

Rita at SAGE has been a lifesaver for our family. When our mom was in rehab after a fall and began showing memory loss, Rita quickly helped us find a community that truly matches Mom's personality. She even had the difficult conversation with Mom in the kindest, most compassionate way. We're so grateful-her guidance and care have made an incredibly hard time so much easier. We highly recommend her.

Rita is compassionate, knowledgeable, extraordinarily kind, and introduced me to many great communities. She willingly listened and knew how to prioritize, often pointing me to the most important next issue(s). Personal values and family experience inform and guide Rita's recommendations. Thank you for everything. God's speed!

We are so grateful to Rita from SAGE for her willingness to help us explore new memory care options for our father. Although we ultimately decided not to move him at this time, Rita was compassionate, responsive, knowledgeable, and truly listened to our concerns. It was comforting to know we had someone ready and qualified to help if we needed to make a change, and we are deeply appreciative of the time and attention she gave our family.

They have amazing programs for life after hospitalization or rehab to merge the gap between discharge and getting back home.

I don't often write reviews, but some things deserve to be shared- especially when they involve people as dedicated and thoughtful as Rita and Matt at SAGE! This isn't a business in the traditional sense - it's a TRUSTED source of support, guidance, and expertise for families navigating the complexities of senior living decisions. If you're overwhelmed by choices or unsure where to turn, I wholeheartedly recommend SAGE as your trusted partner. Rita will walk with you, answer your questions, and ensure your loved ones receive the care and respect they deserve!  

Rita is amazing. She walked my family and I through the entire process, our options, realistically what was doable and resources available. Although we ended up having to go another route outside of her hands she followed up until the very end with everything we needed. Highly recommend this company.

I had a fantastic experience finding my new home through SAGE. Rita was there for us every step of the way, making the process of choosing an Independent Living facility smooth and stress-free. I can’t recommend their services enough!

Rita was a valuable guide to our family. Determining next level of care for a loved one is difficult. Rita understands families needs and both listens and provides guidance from both her professional and personal experiences. I would highly recommend Rita to anyone that is considering assisted living or nursing care. No pressure just guidance and advice. Will schedule visits to homes she has already prescreened and offer advice from her experiences.

When my brother and I found ourselves needing to find the best care for our mom in her 90s, we were fortunate enough to meet Rita. From the moment we connected with her, we knew we had found someone special. She was truly a godsend in our journey to find the right place for our mom. We chose Spring Hills in Cherry Hill, and it turned out to be the perfect home for her—she lived like a queen there, thanks to Rita’s guidance and unwavering support. Rita went above and beyond to help us through the entire process. She handled all the endless paperwork, coordinated everything for the move, and even on move-in day, she was there by our side, making sure our mom was happy and settled while my family and I prepared her apartment. Mom loved living there; she made wonderful friends, had regular visitors, and was always entertained. Her last years were filled with joy because we made the right choice, and that was all thanks to Rita. Even after Mom’s passing, Rita has continued to check in on my brother and me, showing that her care goes far beyond just doing a job—it’s who she is. We are so incredibly grateful for everything Rita did for our family, and we wouldn’t have wanted anyone else by our side.  

Rita & Matt pulled off the impossible when I was trying to convince mom to move out of her house back in 2023. Mom knew she had to leave her home but could never find the confidence to do so. I am so glad that the two of them not only convinced mom to move but everything was delivered as promised. Even before the move, they would make inspections and changes so that mom would have no worries. They even remembered that mom enjoyed art and left a book on fine art, signed, on the coffee table as a surprise gift! It was their unique touches that got mom to where she had to be. I am sure that I am not the only child of a stubborn parent. Thanks to them, they gave her the ability to live the remainder of her life in comfort and me with less concern. I know that although she complained, she did secretly enjoy it there. I just wish her health would have lasted so that she could enjoy it more.  

When I first met Rita and Matt, I was looking ahead—planning for the future for myself and my bride. As a planner by nature, I wanted to make sure we found a place that offered great healthcare services, engaging activities, and the amenities we were accustomed to. Aging comes with challenges, and with my own health complications, I knew the sooner we had a plan in place, the better. From the very beginning, Rita took her time to explain every step of the process, ensuring we understood all our options. What truly set them apart was the level of personal care they provided. We were beyond impressed when she offered to conduct home visits to help us navigate the endless paperwork required to move into the community of our choice. Without Rita and Matt’s guidance, resources, and connections, I honestly don’t know how we would have made it through so seamlessly. They became an invaluable part of our journey, always looking out for our best interests. If there’s one message I want to share, it’s this: Don’t wait until you have no options left. Planning ahead means you get to choose what’s best for you, without the panic. And when it comes to finding the right place and the right people to guide you, trust Rita and Matt. They truly care, and they will always have your best interests at heart. We pray for their success and hope more families find the support and peace of mind they gave us.  

I would highly recommend Rita from Sage to help assist you and your family during what can be a complex and stressful process of navigating senior care needs. I needed to find an assisted living facility for my mom after her stay at a short-term rehabilitation facility. The social worker got in touch with Rita, who was in touch with us immediately. She gave us many potential options while also completely understanding the emotional impact of deciding this. Rita quickly used her contacts in the industry to set up meetings at facilities that matched our needs, as well as attended the meetings with us to guide us through the process. We were able to find a great facility that met all my mother’s needs and my family’s needs. I am very grateful to Rita for guiding our family so professionally and thoughtfully through this process.  

SAGE was very helpful in answering all my questions and educating me on senior living at home. Rita was amazing, very caring, understanding and offered a ton of information and resources. Thank you for all your help.

Rita was recommended to me by a facility that was unable to accommodate our needs. My son, who suffers from the effects of a stroke/TBI 8 years ago, was moving back into the area after a divorce. Rita found us a facility that could accommodate his needs and worked with us to make this happen in a quick and efficient manner. Rita was caring and listened to our concerns about care and services that we requested. She was knowledgeable, communicative and responsive. When the time comes we will be reaching out to Rita again.

Our Aunt & Uncle have REALLY been struggling, but we had no idea how much until their daughter & caregiver became very ill, went on hospice and passed away. Our Aunt has advancing dementia and our Uncle struggles with multiple medical/physical issues. Rita came to their house on a rainy Sunday afternoon and met with their children and our extended family. Rita was informative, patient & kind. She included our Uncle in the "hard" conversations and had solutions to their challenge of remaining in their home safely. Unfortunately, my Uncle is not ready to make any changes yet but Rita is calling every week to follow up and we know we'll be using her to get them safely into their next chapter as soon as possible. If you're looking for an Advisor with firsthand education & knowledge of care giving and someone with incredible connections in the Healthcare community, call Rita. She is incredible!

Rita is very personable as well as being very professional while providing us with the particular information and guidance we needed for our specific situation. We’re very happy and appreciative of all of the assistance we received. Thank you Rita and Sage.  

I got the opportunity to work with Rita to help a family. Not only was Rita professional, kind, and easy to work with, but also very responsive and helpful! Thank you, SAGE! You helped this family out of a “no-win” situation and gave them a solution. I plan on working with Rita and SAGE again.

When I began to realize I could no longer care for my mother on my own, I reached out to Rita. She literally walked me through the process. We toured numerous care centers that would fit my mother's needs. She pointed out the pros and cons of each place and helped me decide on my mother's care. The employees there became like family. If you are facing decisions like these, reach out to Rita at Sage; she helps make this overwhelming time in your life so much easier.
