I was so stressed trying to deal with all the aged care paperwork and the logistics of finding a care home for Dad. So after my first meeting with Savannah and her team, my stomach started to relax. Having a broker assist with all the paperwork and finding a home was the best thing we could have done. Dad is in a beautiful home and being well cared for, thanks to Savannah and Melissa. Melissa was absolutely fantastic she was there to assist us with all the details of admission, and when everything is so daunting it is so nice to have someone who knows the aged care system to keep you calm. Once the brokers were engaged things moved very quickly. Couldn't recommend Retirement Care Solutions enough they were exceptional in the service.

We engaged Savannah of Retirement Care Solutions to find a suitable retirement village after our own efforts were not successful. We found Savannah had a wide knowledge of the industry and escorted us around a number of facilities by collecting us and returning us home. Always friendly and attentive, Savannah provided excellent client service and went above and beyond what we expected. She was always accessible. We are now settled in our retirement home and are very happy thanks to Savannah. We highly recommend Retirement Care Solutions.

To navigate what I would call the convoluted Aged Care system on your own particularly during a highly emotional time is almost impossible. From Retirement Care Solution's earliest advices on preparing my Mum's affairs, through the search for a suitable Aged Care facility for her and her ultimate placement took so much stress out of the process for me. Savannah leads a small but versatile team of knowledgeable and willing individuals including Steph who walked me through so many stages of the process to Melissa who searched and found so many accommodation options to chose from for my Mum, Jean. The prospective costs of each option were made clear to me by Savannah. Inspections of selected options were well managed. I couldn't be happier where we landed and with Savannah's service, commitment and follow up throughout these difficult times. My Mum is happy which is a great outcome. A BIG THANKYOU to the Retirement Care Solutions Team who made what I thought was the impossible, possible.

We were caught off guard when our brother was suddenly admitted to hospital and remained there for some time. It quickly became obvious, that he could no longer care for himself and required constant care. We very quickly discovered that finding somewhere suitable was going to be no easy ask. Everywhere we turned was just a problem. We had no idea how to navigate this difficult process. We were told repeatedly that our brother would not qualify for an acat assessment, but Savannah was tenacious in efforts to secure one for us. Upon receiving this, Savannah and her team left no stone unturned in their efforts to secure suitable accommodation for our brother. Savannah 's team constantly kept us updated on options available and costs. Their knowledge of government regulations and facilities available made us very confident that they would achieve a favourable outcome. Our brother is now very happy with his new accommodation and we are confident that he is being well cared for. Savannah even called into our house several times to discuss matters, when it was sometimes difficult to attend her office. Without the help of Savannah and her team, there is no way that we would have achieved such a favourable outcome. They genuinely give you the impression that they are working solely for you. We cannot thank Savannah and her team enough and have no hesitation in recommending her and her team

Absolutely first class service from Savannah and her team. I cannot praise them highly enough. They made a very difficult process so much easier to navigate and a personally distressing situation more acceptable. Thank you team.

Five Stars to Savannah and the team at Retirement Care Solutions. During an especially challenging time with our Mum, Savannah provided clear, thorough and gentle guidance for supporting Mum into an aged care placement. She was like our third sister. Savannah has invaluable knowledge of the aged care homes in the area, she arranged appointments and handled the administrative aspects of securing a placement. While Savannah was a great support to us, most importantly she truly cared for our Mum and worked in Mum's best interests. There are not enough words to express the gratitude we have for Savannah and her whole amazing team at Retirement Care Solutions. we highly recommend them if you need help navigating the aged care system. They truly are superstars!

My family used Retirement Care Solutions for our parents who needed to transition into care, I would recommend them highly, Savannah and her team were there for us through every step of the process and helped us through one of the hardest decisions of our adult lives, putting anyone into care is hard enough to do but with their help it made it so much easier.

I have been dealing professionally with Savannah and her company since December 2015, after she presented her business and services to a formal gathering of over 100 of my retiree clients.

Savannah is a dedicated professional that always places her clients’ needs before her own, endeavouring to find the solution that suits them best. Her work is timely, diligent and generally achieves the results her clients are seeking.

A number of my clients have engaged Savannah for her services in the past two years and the feedback that I have received from them has been overwhelmingly positive.

In my personal opinion, Savannah is a pleasant and easy going person with the drive and work ethic to find the best outcome for her clients, regardless of the complexities involved.

We have cross-referred clients to each other many times since our original meeting, with only positive outcomes resulting. Please contact me directly on 3245 3533, if you need any additional information.

Kind regards

My wife spent over eight weeks in hospital, and it became evident she needed to go into permanent aged care. We thought we could tackle this as a family, and drove around the Bayside district looking for potential facilities, but we were achieving nothing.

We had no idea if these Homes were available nor if they could provide the required care for my wife. It was nearing Christmas and pressure was on, as the Hospital could no longer provide the Bed. In short, we were travelling in circles until someone recommended Retirement Care Solutions. One short meeting with Savannah and Stephanie convinced us that we had found a company with the energy to make things happen.

They had the necessary connections throughout the district and within days Stephanie accompanied us on tour to suitable options. We strongly recommend Retirement Care Solutions to anyone looking for residential age care placement for themselves, family or associates. Their knowledge and commitment is unmatched and ensures all the boxes will be ticked for these important undertakings.

Hendrix Family

We were travelling overseas for an extended period when my dear 91yr old mother required immediate, specialized and permanent aged care placement. Being overseas I emailed a number of companies trying to ascertain who might be best placed to find an aged care facility where mum would be safe, comfortable and treated with dignity, and like a godsend Retirement Care Solutions delivered. From the outset Savannah provided clarity, direction and compassion and with the support of her team and their tireless efforts we found a wonderful place that will provide mum with the care she needs. I truly believe if we hadn’t engaged Savannah and her Team we would’ve had buckley’s chance of achieving the outcome we did on so many levels, we are extremely thankful, grateful and absolutely relieved.

A huge thank you Savannah, Melissa & Team.

As I started the process of not only relocating my father to QLD, but also finding him appropriate accommodation, I very quickly found that this was not an easy path to navigate. Thankfully in amongst my Google searching I literally stumbled across Savannah & her Retirement Care Solutions team. I cannot speak more highly of Savannah & her dedication, commitment, care, sympathy, professionalism & just shear drive to help people. To boot, she is also a very nice lady. Savannah made the seemingly complicated process so much simpler to understand what needed to be done to allow us to find my Father a new place to call home. She helped us every step of the way & no question was ever too crazy to be answered, which helped me greatly to understand the overall process we were going through. When it came time to inspect facilities that may be suitable, Savannah was able to line up x3 very good facilities & out of that, by luck, we were able to come across a vacancy at the last facility we visited on that day. As it turned out, this is the facility that my Father has now just been converted to being a permanent resident & since he has settled in & gotten used to his new home, has been able to transition into his new life. But all this would not have been possible if we did not have Savannah & her team doing their best to help us find a place for my Father. I can certainly 100% recommend Savannah & her dedicated team to anyone looking for assistance in transitioning their Mother or Father or both through the next step of their lives. I am very grateful to have stumbled across the Retirement Care Solutions web site & ultimately through to finding Savannah & her team. To anyone debating whether or not to go down this path, do not hesitate, just pick up the phone & call, you won’t be disappointed.

We are incredibly grateful for the support Savannah provided in helping us find the right aged care facility for our father. She was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and proactive throughout the entire process. Savannah guided us every step of the way, answered all our questions with patience and clarity, and made a stressful situation so much easier to manage. We genuinely couldn’t have done it without her. Her care and dedication made all the difference, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone navigating the aged care system.

Savannah and the team at Retirement Care Solutions did an amazing job helping us with getting mum, who had just had another fall and was in hospital at the time, quickly into a local Aged Care facility that is perfect for her needs, and one that allows us to be close to her.

Retirement Care Solutions helped get us into a placement very quickly, much quicker that we would have thought.

Since mum has moved in, we can’t seem to get the smile off her face, she is really enjoying life, and is nice and busy with activities in a lovely facility.

Retirement Care Solutions knew all the processes, forms, paperwork and government interactions, as well as all the Aged Care facilities, and took care of all the work for us, which is great for a family where everyone is busy working and raising young kids. And they did it with a caring nature, listening to our needs and mum’s needs, and making sure the facility would meet both.

Couldn’t recommend Retirement Care Solutions more! Did an outstanding job.

To whom it may concern I have worked with Savannah for a number of years with clients that have required the services of Home Instead Senior Care and Retirement Care Solutions.

I have found Savannah reliable and professional but most importantly Savannah provides excellent customer service to all of her clients.

I would just like to say a huge thankyou for all the assistance you gave my parents in moving into their new home.

You went over and beyond what I expected you were engaged to do.

From packing to organizing connections to even negotiating and deciphering the contracts for my parents was a blessing.

Selfishly enough it took a huge amount of time and pressure of me having to assist in the arrangements I would of struggled with.

I will have no hesitation in referring your caring service. I will even brag about it to anyone who has parents or friends that are ready for their final move.

Kindest Regard

Savannah of “Retirement Care Solutions” was employed by my mum to help her move from her home to Independent living in December. I have nothing but praise for Savannah who has bent over backwards to helping mums transition run smoothly.

She has from day one helped mum understand the paperwork she has had to do with selling her home, advised her on what retirement homes where in the vicinity that mum wanted to be in, and made the various appointments.

Savannah has driven Mum to the Villages that she wanted to look at, doing all this in times that suited us. She explained the differences between each village visited and the costs, services provided, and paperwork.

Savannah has taken the time to talk with mum and family on the payback systems of each village and the decisions that can be made for the future wellbeing of Mum.

Once Mum chose her new accommodation Savannah once again stepped us through the process in terms that we could understand, Savannah was always in contact with me regarding whatever was going on, she arranged Solicitors for mums conveyancing and later for other personal issues. Savannah also arranged:

  • Removalists
  • Electricity
  • Phone
  • Foxtel (which proved to be the hardest)
  • Early entry license to move her possession into the unit before settlement date.
  • In doing this it eased mums stress levels immensely, and OURS!

Savannah was there on removal day at the house and also used her vehicle for a load of mums special things so they would not get damaged, helping also to unpack the smaller items from the removalists truck to help save on costs.

I cannot give Savannah enough credit. She has put 110% of her time to ensure mums move to her new home was as stress free as she could make it.

I would highly recommend Savannah for anything she takes on her knowledge of the Industry is immense.

Thank You Savannah.

Words cannot properly express how much your assistance, expertise, and thoughtfulness was appreciated when I had to recently find an aged care facility for my aunt and to then sell her home.

Even the Customer Services Manager at the facility I finally chose, who had not met you previously, commented most favourably on your efficiency and the service you provided compared to other Retirement and Care Specialists she has had dealings with.

My best wishes for the future of Retirement Care Solutions. I will certainly be passing on your name to my family and friends.

Kindest regards,

Katherine L

Savannah was incredibly compassionate, professional and knowledgeable in assisting my friend into a care home. She, in particular, listened carefully to my friends’ wishes and was diligent in finding solutions which best met her needs. I would highly recommend Savannah to any of my family or friends who needed this service.

Matt S

Savannah and her team at Retirement Care Solutions gave us great help and support in navigating the care options and availability of centres. An end-to-end solution in an area that can be a mine field for first timers. They organised tours of aged care facilities, contracts and helped with getting the best price point for us. They also helped in organising the Centrelink paperwork and ensuring the Means testing was completed and up to date. A great outcome for us and we are happy with the outcome and would recommend Savannah and her team at Retirement Care Solutions.

The realisation that Dad would need to move into permanent aged care was a daunting one. Fortunately we were referred to Savannah who ensured that the whole process ended up being as smooth and as stress free as we could possibly wish. We thank Savannah for her expertise and kindness and we absolutely could not have done it all without her.

David G

Savannah is a wonderful person who is very good at what she does. She will always be there when you need her.
I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Tracey K

Can’t recommend highly enough, Savannah’s contacts and knowledge dealing with all aspects of assisted living meant we didn’t waste time learning as we went and our loved one had a place we really liked within a week. Her compassionate personality and experience during a highly emotional time was also invaluable.

Catherine E

I highly recommend Savannah!!
She treated my mother with the upmost respect and kindness during her journey from her home of 60yrs into full time care. I couldn’t have done this without Savannah’s help, from her knowledge of how it all works and what places are best suited, organising visits and being there with us during the whole process.

Larayne M

Savannah and her team made finding a nursing home and selling my loved ones property much easier and less stressful as I work full-time and the load was lightened and made easy…one stop shop and wonderful caring service that goes above and beyond… Thank-You from the bottom of our hearts you have made my loved one very happy in her new home and that means so much.
