Bridge To Better Living

We are incredibly grateful for the help and guidance we received from Kristine Dykeman-Schoening with Bridge to Better Living while finding a retirement community for my mother. Transitioning a loved one to senior living can be overwhelming, but Kristine’s extensive background with a BA in Psychology, Certifications in Gerontology and Social Work were immediately evident. She took the time to truly understand our social, medical, and financial needs before curating a list of options that were a perfect fit. Having her accompany us on tours and ask the critical questions gave us peace of mind and the confidence to make an educated decision. Highly recommend her services and knowledge to any family starting this journey.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Bridges to Better Living! We worked with Kristine and she's incredibly knowledgeable about the senior living facilities in Lincoln. She took the necessary time (and beyond) to explain the differences and to answer any questions we had. Kristine understands the unique atmosphere, strengths, amenities, and care levels of each facility and she helped us narrow down options that fit our parent's needs. The staff at Bridges To Better Living have strong, relationships with Lincoln facility directors and staff, which made the entire process seamless for us. You can tell they are trusted and well regarded by others who work in senior care. Krstine listened carefully, showed genuine compassion, and made our family feel supported every step of the way. If you are navigating senior living decisions for a loved one, Bridges to Better Living is the who I would highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It is a daunting task transitioning a parent to a better life. There are so many complexities to address and you feel unsure. The best thing that happened in the process was finding Kristine at Bridge to Better Living. She was incredibly experienced and connected in the industry to make this nearly painless for our family. My Dad is healthier, happier, more engaged and has fabulous dining experiences at The Legacy on Fremont Street. We are happy for him in his new, beautiful environment. The staff there likes working there and it shows. Thanks to Kristine for knowing what place would be the best for him and helping our family to make this transition a pleasant and positive experience. We couldn't have done it without her.

My mother and I had the pleasure of working with Kristine on locating her a new assisted living facility that would provide more detailed care. From the moment Kristine visited with my mother, she had the knowledge of which Assisted Living Facility would be a good fit for her. She arranged a tour and meeting that went very well. She continued to keep in touch after we made the decision to move mom. I’m happy to report that she is very happy with the move and she loves the staff and everything about her new home. Thank you Kristine for all of your knowledge and help that you provided us.

We are incredibly grateful for the help and guidance we received from Bridge to Better Living while finding a retirement community for my mother. They were extremely knowledgeable, quick, efficient, and truly compassionate throughout the entire process. Thanks to Mary Ann's support, my mom was able to make the transition from her home of 43 years into her new home in Lincoln smoothly and with confidence. What could have been an overwhelming experience instead felt manageable and reassuring. I can’t recommend them highly enough to anyone facing a similar journey.
