Frank and Juli Simons know that one of the most complex decisions a family has to make comes with the ever-evolving needs of a senior loved one. “Needing to make a move for a senior can be a daunting task, especially considering what is motivating the need for a change,” explain Frank and Juli. “Navigating all the options and deciding what is best can be overwhelming if you don’t know all the aspects of senior living and care.” Luckily, the Simons’ are local experts spending in-person time with families and seniors to provide assistance through the whole process with their business, Senior Care Consultants.

Frank and Juli are Mill Creek locals who have raised their families in the area for over 30 years. They love the sense of community and small town feel they find here and are members of both the Mill Creek Chamber and Rotary Club.  “This has been our home and our community and will continue to be for a very long time,” they share. Most recently, they have loved spending time with family and being new grandparents to their granddaughter who has brought a new and special joy into their lives. When not working, Frank and Juli are both voracious readers. Juli also loves the local trails and barre3 classes, while Frank enjoys swimming and participating in other sports at the Columbia athletic club.

They began Senior Care Consultants in 2012. Juli has extensive experience in the placement industry, describing herself as a natural matchmaker and problem solver. She moved into the senior care industry in 2008 and fell in love with seniors and their families. Frank, also a problem solver, began his career serving in the US Navy where he grew his technical knowledge and passion for service. He brought these skills into tech roles in corporate America, and further developed his passions for service and connection through involvement in ministry with local churches.

With Juli’s expertise and experience in the senior housing industry and their combined passion for the elderly, the Simons’ saw beginning Senior Care Consultants as the perfect opportunity to combine all of their passions into a business that would directly benefit their community. Frank and Juli enhance each other’s strengths and can tag-team with seniors and their families to provide the best fit for them in the moment. “We love being able to be a trusted resource for families, and value the relationships we get to build along the way,” they share. “We also really appreciate our business model that allows us to serve families without them having to pay a fee to us. It takes away one of the many burdens and stressors that this process can sometimes create.”

What makes Senior Care Consultants so unique is the personal touch combined with extensive evaluations and research that Frank and Juli provide for their clients and families. “The right solution for a senior doesn’t just improve the quality of life for them, but also for their spouse, their children, and their other family members and friends,” the Simons’ say. “This isn’t just providing a list of rooms in the area that are available, this is partnering with you in-person to find the best overall solution and navigate one of the most difficult times in your life.”

Their process begins by connecting with families in person to discuss specific needs and go over the options that would best fit them. This helps everyone involved in the process understand the current and future health-related needs of the senior, as well as give a clear idea of which facilities will be best equipped to assist with those needs. From there, Frank and Juli accompany their clients on tours of a variety of communities and homes that they have personally been to and checked for compliance with current state rules and regulations. Once clients make the final choice, Frank and Juli continue to follow up with both their clients and the home, ensuring the best fit has been accomplished and that their clients feel cared for throughout the entire process.

Frank and Juli Simons of Senior Care Consultants are the perfect team to help you and your family determine the best care solutions for your loved ones. “Thank God for Frank and Juli,” shares a previous client, Jason A. “They helped us place mom in the most loving home possible.
