Should YOUR aging parent MOVE-IN with YOU? - Ask the expert
/Moving a parent in to your home can have many benefits. The same goes for caregiver that move-in with their loved-one but remember there is likely going to be a point where it may cause fatigue, stress, heartache and more expense than if they had a senior living apartment and care that came to them. These are especially true should it get to the point when your home has to go through a remodel for safety accommodations, says Alisha Duvall MSW/MFT.

TBT: Today's Woman behind the scene photo-shoot.
/"I was so nervous I felt sick to my stomach," Alisha Duvall of Alee Solutions shared when asked about what it was like to do the photo-shoot for the Way to Go Woman award 2017.

Unfeigned Review of Alisha Duvall at Alee Solutions -- Share if you feel the same way
/"I have worked alongside Alisha for years. In all of my career I have never worked with someone that is as passionate, as caring, and as dedicated to helping others. She bore a heavy burden while with Hosparus as she assisted those in the end of life. She acted with professionalism, compassion, and an empathy that can not be imitated.
Her path led her to start her own business Alee Solutions, that specializes in finding placement for seniors. She has went above and beyond what she promises her clients. Alisha does this because she genuinely cares for people. I assure you that it is not for the money, she doesn't know if she is going to be paid when taking on new clients. She does every thing she can for them and sees them through to the end.
Alisha has more integrity and love for people that I can only hope to one day achieve." - Rick M.
Happy Labor Day !
