Out-of-Area Senior Placement Referrals

Placement specialists outside Texas referring clients to me — and how I handle out-of-area families placing a loved one in Texas from another state.

This page serves two audiences: placement specialists in other states who have clients moving to Texas and need a trusted Texas partner to receive the referral; and families who are managing a placement in Texas from another state — often adult children living out of Texas who have a parent in Houston, Dallas, Austin, or San Antonio. Both situations require a Texas specialist with current on-the-ground knowledge who can move quickly and communicate clearly across distance.

Why Partner With Erika

🗺️

Texas Market Specialist

I know the Texas senior care market — current facility availability, Medicaid programs, regional cost differences, and facility quality. Out-of-state specialists receive a trusted Texas partner, not a generic referral.

📱

Virtual-First for Long-Distance Families

Long-distance families can’t always fly in for every tour. I offer video-assisted virtual tours, detailed facility reports, and phone/video intake — managing the process remotely when needed.

🤝

Professional Reciprocity

I maintain relationships with placement specialists in other states for families who are moving out of Texas. Professional referral reciprocity serves both of our client bases.

How It Works

1

Out-of-state specialist refers Texas-bound family

A specialist in California, Florida, or another state has a client moving to Texas. They contact me with a client brief; I take over the Texas placement process while they maintain the family relationship.

2

Or: long-distance family contacts me directly

An adult child in Chicago has a parent in Houston who needs placement. They contact me; I handle the full placement process — intake by video call, facility research, virtual tours, and move-in coordination — while the family participates remotely.

3

Detailed intake and briefing

For referrals from other specialists, I receive a client brief and schedule an intake call with the family. I provide the referring specialist with regular updates so they can maintain their advisory role.

4

Confirmed placement with full documentation

I confirm placement, provide the family with all relevant facility information, and notify the referring specialist so they can complete their documentation and follow-up.
