Personalized Moving Support Eases Transition for Seniors at Ann’s Choice

The transition to a senior living community often comes with the challenge of downsizing a lifetime of possessions, a process that can be overwhelming for many. Jane and Michael Doyle's recent move to Ann’s Choice, an Erickson Senior Living community in Bucks County, Pa., was made smoother thanks to the personalized support from Planning and Moving Consultant Lisa Sicilia. Their experience sheds light on the critical role such services play in facilitating a stress-free move for seniors.

Facing the daunting task of downsizing from their two-bedroom townhouse with a full basement, the Doyles found Sicilia’s expertise invaluable. She provided guidance on selecting furniture to bring, created a layout for their new residence, and recommended trusted vendors for moving and donations. This level of support is a hallmark of Erickson Senior Living’s Priority List membership, which offers first choice of residences and exclusive access to planning and moving assistance designed to provide peace of mind.

Sicilia’s method includes complimentary home visits to assess the unique needs of each resident, whether they’re transitioning from a modest townhouse or a spacious single-family home. For the Doyles, this meant receiving a detailed floor plan that helped them visualize their furniture in the new space, simplifying the decluttering process and aiding movers on moving day. Additionally, the couple benefited from Sicilia’s network of vetted professionals, including real estate agents and interior design vendors, ensuring a seamless transition.

Now comfortably settled at Ann’s Choice, the Doyles are fully embracing the community’s vibrant lifestyle, from dining and socializing to engaging in activities like yoga and tai chi. Sicilia advises those considering a move to start planning early, highlighting her role in ensuring a smooth transition. The Doyles’ story underscores the significant impact of personalized moving support in helping seniors confidently embark on their next chapter.
