When an aging parent or loved one begins needing more support, many families don’t know where to start. You may be trying to balance work, children, and your own responsibilities while suddenly researching assisted living, memory care, or residential care homes.
It’s common to feel overwhelmed by the number of options, uncertain about costs, or even guilty about whether you’re making the right decision. At Senior Living Specialists San Antonio, we understand those emotions because we’ve helped countless local families navigate the same journey. Our role is to simplify the process, answer your questions honestly, and help you find a community where your loved one can receive the care they need while maintaining dignity, comfort, and quality of life.
We spoke to families throughout Texas that felt there were limited resources to help you find the right community. It seemed that the only options available were national senior placement companies that lacked the local knowledge of San Antonio or high-cost local professionals that charged hourly. We realized that the placement support options in San Antonio added to the stress and financial cost of finding the right care for a loved one.
Our team has a personal relationship with the senior communities and facilities across San Antonio. We visit all of these communities regularly to be the most up to date placement service in the metro area. These regular visits allow us to give families the highest level of detail on their care, leadership, staff, and community activities.

Every city has its own senior living landscape, and San Antonio is no exception. Communities vary not only in size and amenities but also in the neighborhoods they serve, the hospitals they’re closest to, and the lifestyles they offer. Families looking in Stone Oak may have different priorities than those searching in Alamo Heights, New Braunfels, Boerne, or the Medical Center area. Having someone who understands the local market can make the search more efficient and help families focus on communities that truly match their loved one’s needs.
We are in the business of helping people and believe the families we work with should know the leadership of Senior Living Specialists San Antonio. Rachel Farber’s desire to help families challenged with finding the right senior care community and Texas background set the foundation for Senior Living Specialists.
Rachel is a native Texan with family roots going back generations tied to Houston and San Antonio. Together with her husband Scot, she has built a beautiful family with three bright and outstanding sons. She enjoys western art, a good Netflix series, and cooking a meal to share with friends.
Our services are always free without obligation to all families and seniors. If you decide on one of our recommended care communities, we are paid a one-time referral fee by the community, after your loved one has moved into their new home.
It is this structure that allows us to provide our services at no cost to the families we service.

Families never pay us for guidance or assistance during the placement process. Once a loved one moves into a participating senior living community, that community compensates us for helping facilitate the placement. Our goal is always to help families find the right fit based on care needs, preferences, and budget.
No. Our job is to educate you about your options and help you compare communities that meet your loved one’s needs. We encourage families to ask questions, visit communities, and make the decision they feel is best. Our recommendations are based on finding the right fit, not making the decision for you.
Every family’s situation is different. Some seniors need to move quickly following a hospitalization or health event, while others spend weeks or months exploring options before making a decision. We work at your pace and help coordinate each step of the process, from narrowing the search to scheduling tours and preparing for move in.
Care needs often evolve over time. That’s why we encourage families to think beyond today’s circumstances when evaluating communities. We can help explain which communities offer multiple levels of care or specialized support so families can better understand their options as needs change.
Researching senior living communities on your own can quickly become overwhelming. Every community presents itself differently, making it difficult to compare care, pricing, services, and availability. We help families understand those differences, narrow the search, and provide local guidance throughout the decision-making process, saving time and reducing uncertainty.
No. Our responsibility is to help families understand the senior living landscape and identify communities that best meet their loved one’s needs. We believe every family deserves honest guidance and transparent information so they can make the decision that feels right for their situation.
