Testimonials
"It is my genuine pleasure to recommend Navigaidants to any families going through the difficult process of navigating care for their loved ones. I am the American next of kin of a 79 year old Canadian senior based in Montreal with a complicated social situation and no family in Canada. I have come into contact with many individuals and groups while trying to navigate the process of elderly care and I find that Navigants and Christine in particular stands out among them as a wonderful example of an empathetic, culturally sensitive, and effective social worker. I immediately felt comfortable knowing that this McGill alumni had the appropriate experience and wealth of knowledge to ease our anxiety and provide guidance on issues of power of attorney, placement, finances, and other areas of elderly care. She also had a determination and a positive attitude towards improving the quality of life of my loved one. She helped us navigate a public placement process for my senior. Her advice and guidance has proven to be valuable in the months and years to come. We couldn't have been grateful for her guidance and expert input especially while navigating this process from the US with little knowledge of Canadian system! " |
"Could not be more impressed with the services Christine provides! When you're working full time and the personal life is messy and stressful it's hard to do the simple things like search for the right help and make an appointment. Christine does all the research and all the booking for you! You tell her what you need, what you're looking for and your availabilities and she finds you solid options. Provides top recommendations with rationale why she believes the resources chosen are a good fit for you in a clear and easy to follow document and supports your ultimate decision with caring and compassion. Highly recommend Navigaidants to anyone and everyone! Especially folks on the go!"
"Christine is an honest and sweet person in addition to being a highly qualified social worker. She helped get immediate results for our mom during a very difficult time. In just a few weeks, she managed to get through to our local clsc in order to get an evaluation and assessment done which my sister and I were unable to achieve after months of calls and follow Ups. She offered herself as a hands on coordinator on all levels and remains available to continue if and when things change. Dementia and Alzheimer’s are incredibly difficult diseases to live with and care for in any family situation, Christine is clearly experienced, well versed, connected and took a huge load off our shoulders when it was needed most, all at a very fair cost. We can’t say enough about how instrumental she was with navigating through our stressed medical system with never-ending wait lists." - Virginia Z. |
