September 5, 2022Rose Gallego is an amazing person, who provided outstanding service in locating a foster home for my long time friend. He had been at Pohai Nani for several years and his condition deteriorated rapidly and needed 24 hour care. We searched for weeks and everyplace we contacted was full. Then someone recommended Rose, Elite Care Finder. Within one week she had found three places with vacancies for us to visit. Once we selected the home, Rose oversaw the entire process; insuring all medical documents and test were completed and finalizing all paperwork. My friend is now in a great place.

September 5, 2022Elite Care Finders was a blessing to our family in our time of need. If it wasn’t for Rose, I don’t know what my family would have been able to do. Like many others leaving comments, Rose has provided exceptional service for our family. Before Rose came into our lives, my mother was dealing with several medical problems that needed 24 hour care. Our family was moving from hospital to hospital as my mother got treatment. Then, the reality of leaving the hospital, still needing 24 hour care, and then physical therapy, all started to overwhelm our family’s thoughts. “What can we do?” “Who do we call?” “How does all of this medical stuff work?” This has never happened to our family before and we felt lost. Rose stepped in with empathy and grace. She really took the time and effort to support our family and answered all of our questions. Believe me when I say, ALL of our questions… over texts & phone calls during different times of the day. Rose was there for our family day and night. Helping us find the caregiver that was the perfect fit. Everyone’s needs are different and that is where Rose will do her best to help you find the right fit for you and your family. 5 stars is not enough to rate the service our family received from Elite Care Finders and Rose. Her knowledge, professionalism, and empathy helps so many families connect with her network of caregivers that she personally reviews and recommends for you and your family specifically. Super service from our superhero… Thank you Rose for all you have done to help our family. Elite Care Finders is exactly what their name says…they found our elite care for our family.

August 25, 2022Kaiser placed my Uncle on Hospice in July. I live on the mainland and traveled to help him navigate his care through Hospice and to help him to move from his retirement center to a place that can provide the care that he needs. Having recently retired as an RN for 30 years, I was shocked how different it is to find placement for the Hospice patient in Hawaii vs a hospice patient in Oregon. Rose was very knowledgeable and familiar with the different facilities that are available for these patients as well as others. It really helps with her RN oncology background as well. She does the leg work and paper work so family members can focus their time on choosing the best facility for their family member and making it a smooth transition for all ( the receiving facility and the family and the client)

August 21, 2022Many thanks to Rose for helping me find the perfect Care Home for my friend. She guided me through the process while directly communicating with doctors and Social Worker which helped tremendously in completing required paper work needed for placement. She shared her knowledge and expertise in a way that was easy for me to understand. She provided me with photos and phone numbers of different homes so I could narrow my search and reach out for visits. Her positive attitude and willingness to help made it easier to get through this difficult time in placing a loved one in a Care Home. I would highly recommend Elite Care Finders because I found them to be excellent!

August 2, 2022I highly recommend Elite CareFinders. I needed to find dad a care home quickly and did not know where to start. Rose was so helpful and knowledgeable. She recommended a few great homes and worked so quickly. We were able to find dad a place in about a week's time. He is happy with his home and caregiver. Thank you Rose!

June 20, 2022Rose G. RN Senior Care Advisor of Elite CareFinders found a foster care home for my bed ridden husband in the nearby area where I live within a day. She is highly professional and has well-established net working relationship with all Health providers. All paper works are processed by her smoothly. My husband was taken in the foster care Home immediately and wholeheartedly. Thank you, Rose.

June 8, 2022Rose was a life saver! On a holiday weekend at the last minute Kahuku Medical Center (after telling me my Mom with dementia would be in rehab for her broken pelvis) told me to Medicare won’t cover it, they made a mistake and we have to pay $1900 day. Rose acted quickly going through a number of care home and found great place for my Mom. I am extremely grateful for her hard work and exceptional experience. I would highly recommend Rose.

June 6, 2022Kudos to Rose! I am extremely grateful for her hard work and exceptional expertise in helping me place my father in the perfect care home. She navigated the system and presented me with appropriate choices in an easily understandable fashion. She took into account personal preferences and even family dynamics. I never learned any of this stuff during my medical training. She educated me during the process. I highly recommend Rose and her group for any placement issues.

April 18, 2022Our family will be forever grateful for the exceptional and professional services Elite Care Finders provided. Rose went above and beyond her call of duty - her concierge services, wealth of knowledge, positive attitude, and bull dog approach of being an advocate for Dad and the family tremendously helped our family navigate through the rigorous process. Rose not only placed Dad in a Care Home where he can continue to heal and receive the level of care he needed, but the journey to get us there is where our family was most grateful and impressed. Rose always took the time to spend countless hours educating us over the phone, her personalized tours that ensured we were comfortable with the caregivers and their home, her healthcare network and knowing Dads Doctors, her ability to sympathize and empathize with us to relieve our anxiety and stress, and her follow up and visitation after placement shows how much she truly cares. Not sure how she did all of this for our family and found quality time for her other clients… Thank you Rose for helping us through the process and getting our family out of a dark place - you are a true Mother Theresa! ~ Mike, Dulce, and Mom ~

March 6, 2022Rose was great getting me information needed to get the process started. We didn't know what to do to find care for mom, but Rose came to the scene, she had a wealth of knowledge on care homes, the people who offer care, and the cost, rules, and options out there. Rose never let a day go by without reaching out to me to make sure we find a good match for moms care. All referenced care homes were great and each care giver had over 10 years experience in home care. Rose made selecting a care giver very difficult as they were all capable and caring homes and families. I felt at home when I met each care giver and their families making the selection difficult. Rose walked us through the process from start to finish, always letting us know about the options and cost along the way. She responds to any request for information or questions the same day, most times within 30 minutes or less. Rose was "on it" from the beginning staying in constant contact, but gave me the choices to be made for moms care. My wife U'ilani, myself, and my mother all appreciate Rose's help and how she made the transition as simple as possible in these stressful times for our family. Rose was in contact with the Kahuku hospital, Adult Care Services, and her contacts and help set everything up to get mom into a care home. Rose met us at the care home when we brought mom from kahuku to Lyma's home. She greeted mom with flowers and cookies, had flowers for my wife, got me a lei and cookies, and even flowers for the care giver. She's a sweetheart for sure. Should the need arise for long term care in the future, I can confidently say that I would choose Rose again. I can recommend Rose & Elite Care Finders for anyone who has the need. Thanks, Ron.

February 28, 2022GRATITUDE!!! Rose, lived up to the name of her company.”Elite” care…. That was definitely the type of service she provided. My journey with her started when I had already been looking for a care home for my friend(Ward) that has special needs. No care home would take her. I was referred to her from a facility who said they really didn’t take clients in with this particular needs. I had a deadline and my time was running out. Although desperate to find something, I still wanted the best. So I called Rose, a bit hesitant and prepared to be turned away once again. But, to my surprise Rose said she was up to the challenge! She even gave me options! I was pleasantly surprised. She helped find the perfect match of a care home with all the needs crossed off my list and more. She was there from the beginning, everything in between all the way to the finish line. She helped along with all the paperwork and set up the zoom meetings, interviews etc… To see the smile and joy radiating from my friend when she arrived at her new home was absolutely beautiful, perfect, amazing and such a relief. I am so incredibly grateful, and thankful that she has such a heart for what she does. I would recommend her services to everyone! Rose is so pleasant to work with. Such a gem!
