Senior Living Advisor
Karen has been in the eldercare field since 2014. Before joining Silver Age, she was a Family Caregiver Support Specialist. Karen assisted unpaid caregivers in Snohomish County. In this role, she ran five support groups per month, helped caregivers navigate their scenarios; provided one-on-one consultation, and connected people to community resources.
She is currently caring for a family member who has transitioned through Home Care, an Adult Family Home, an Assisted Living Community, and now Memory Care. Karen assists families with a deep understanding of their challenges, feelings, and situations.
Interests
Karen enjoys estate sales in part because she gets to learn people’s stories through the way they lived, what they pursued, and what was important to them. She enjoys one-day travel trips to cities around the Puget Sound area.
Her passion for organization led her to nearly start her own business as a professional organizer. When she was young she would empty her mom’s junk drawer and organize it just for the fun of it.
Causes
Old Dog Haven, domestic violence support groups, and PBS television.
Education
Master’s in marketing and Bachelor’s in accounting. She holds certificates in Aging in Place (CAPS) and Powerful Tools for Caregivers, and is a PAC Certified Independent Consultant through Positive Approach to Care.
What Our Clients Say About Karen
We worked with Karen Anderson to find a new community for my mom in law. She asked questions, listened to our answers and found us an amazing community that we had never heard about in all of our research! We are so grateful for Karen and now my mom in law is thriving in her beautiful community! Thank you, Karen! We couldn’t have done it without you!
Bothell
I worked with Karen at Silver Age to find a family home for my wife, who is severely disabled. It was tough as my wife's condition had changed radically, and we needed to find a home with an RN to take care of her. Karen presented options to us (my sisters joined the selection team), we screened them, visited a few, and then screened some more, each time learning more about the homes and process and what my wife needed. Karen was attentive, super helpful and unrelenting in screening and developing the options to choose from. We found the perfect place for my wife. She is happy and so am I!
Mukilteo
Karen gave me the space I needed to make my own decisions, but supported me in all the ways I needed from talking me through this very scary transition, to completing paperwork orally, to listening so well that she knew exactly what I needed and where to find it, despite my complicated list of requirements! I am now thriving in my new "forever" home. Thank you, Karen!
