Our Story
The Doris Difference is named in honor of our beloved grandmother, Doris Ryan. Our family experienced firsthand the stress and anxiety that comes with the need for additional care for a loved one. We watched as Doris and her husband struggled to maintain their independence, eventually moving Doris in with her son before transitioning to a memory care facility. She spent her final days there, receiving the best care possible. Soon after, her husband had to sell their home and move into an assisted living facility himself.
Inspired by this experience, we are dedicated to helping other families navigate this challenging journey. We understand the emotional and logistical complexities involved in moving an elderly loved one into assisted living. Our mission is to provide compassionate support and ensure a smooth, seamless transition.
