As the President of Assisting Hands Home Care, I've appreciated working with Jon Schwartz and his team at Partner in Aging. Jon and I co-present about an emerging aging services topic monthly at the Carlsbad Senior Center and he always has intriguing insights to share. Jon not only cares deeply about his clients, but as a gerontologist, better understands older adults' journey into older age. Jon is someone I trust in senior services.

Kennia and Michael are amazing! They found the perfect care home within one day when we were in a difficult situation running out of time to find the right place for our family member with greater care needs. They're compassionate, wonderful to work with, and take the time to fully assist families. Using their expertise, vast experience, and connections, they're able to identify ideal placement options. They were a miracle at the right time.

Thank you, Michael, with Partner In Aging, for being an incredible support in finding the best place for my parent.

Previously, I worked with another well-known company for my mom’s first move into assisted living. While somewhat helpful, the experience was marred by a flood of cold calls from facilities after connecting with them, which became frustrating. When it was time for my mom to transition to memory care, I decided not to use that service again.

After doing my own research and scheduling tours, a facility director asked if we had any professional help. When I said we were managing alone, she recommended Michael and offered to connect us, confident he would be a great asset.

Within an hour, Michael and I were discussing my mom’s needs and what we were looking for. He listened carefully and shared invaluable insights about the facilities I had planned to visit. We were preparing for a long day of touring, driving considerable distances, but Michael quickly pointed out that several of those places wouldn’t have been able to accommodate my mom’s unique needs—information the facilities had not disclosed upfront without mentioning the need for an external caretaker.

Michael’s deep knowledge of the facilities and his expertise guided us directly to the perfect home for my mom, saving us an enormous amount of time and stress. This stage of life is emotionally challenging, and Michael was like a lighthouse in a storm—steadfast, reassuring, and guiding us to the right choice.

I highly, highly recommend Michael and Partner In Aging to anyone navigating this difficult journey.

My experience with Jonathan and Michael at Partner in Aging was exceptional. Living out of state, I was struggling to navigate the options for care in Oceanside for my sister who had a stroke at age 63. Not only did I benefit from their high level of competence and expertise, which was essential for the short timeframe that we had to work in, but I was truly blown away by the compassion and personal care that they shared with our family. I cannot praise Partner in Aging enough!

Michael at Partner in Aging has been an absolute pleasure to work with. He recently referred a wonderful client to Carlsbad Village Senior Living, and his support throughout the process made the transition from skilled nursing to assisted living incredibly smooth and well-coordinated. Michael is attentive, communicative, and truly dedicated to finding the right fit for the families he serves. We’re grateful for the partnership and look forward to working together again in the future!

Working with Michael during the process of finding an assisted living community for my mom was truly a blessing. From the very beginning, Michael was incredibly helpful, compassionate, and attentive to both my mom’s needs and my own concerns.
He took the time to listen carefully, explain every step, and guide us through what could have been an overwhelming experience. His patience and genuine care showed in every conversation. Michael made sure we understood our options, advocated for what was best for my mom, and always made us feel supported.
What really stood out was how he made the entire process feel manageable and much less stressful. Knowing we had someone who truly cared about our family’s well-being gave us peace of mind. Because of his help, my mom is now in a wonderful community where she is safe, comfortable, and happy.
I am truly grateful for all of Michael’s kindness, professionalism, and dedication. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs support navigating senior living options. He made a difficult life transition so much easier.
