History

Established in 2007.

Senior Move Services grew out of Gerre Wade’s personal experience with her reluctant father as she assisted his move to independent living from his home of more than fifty years. With improved nutrition and companionship, his health improved significantly from seven hospitalizations in one year to one hospitalization in the next two years. She saw the immediate benefits enjoyed by her father and believed that she could offer the same outcome to other older adults in similar situations. After researching senior move managers online, Gerre took extensive training in the field of senior moving and gained certification as a relocation and transition specialist. She attends the National Association of Senior Move Managers conference yearly where she learns the latest and best practices in her field so she can offer these skills to her clients.
