More than 40 million adult children in the U.S. are caring for aging parents or loved ones-many while juggling full-time jobs, raising families, and trying to navigate senior care without a clear roadmap. With 10,000 Americans turning 65 every day, the pressure on families to make fast, informed decisions about housing, healthcare, and support has never been greater.
Whether it’s independent living, assisted living, or memory care, the process can be emotional, confusing, and time-consuming. That’s exactly why senior living expert and former sales director Shari Ross created Senior Living Made S.I.M.P.L.E.
: A Real-World Guide to Navigate Care for Your Loved One. Now, she’s released an accompanying workbook to make the guidance even more hands-on and actionable.
Ross spent over a decade inside the senior living industry, helping thousands of families make difficult decisions under pressure. Her book, available on Amazon, offers candid advice, relatable stories, and clear direction without overwhelming readers. Written in a warm, conversational tone, it makes even the most complicated topics approachable.

After hearing from families who wanted tools they could actively use during the decision-making process, Ross released The Senior Living Made S.I.M.P.L.E. Workbook. This companion guide is filled with printable checklists, planning pages, and journal prompts that walk readers through every major milestone-from asking “Is it time?” to moving day, and beyond.

“People often think the hardest part is choosing a community,” says Ross. “But it’s really the emotional side: family conversations, letting go, staying involved- that can be just as hard. This workbook was designed to hold your hand through all of it.”
The resources are built around Ross’s unique S.I.M.P.L.E. Method, which stands for: Support, Information, Matching, Preparation, Letting Go, and Engagement- six often-overlooked stages in the senior living journey.
What sets Ross’s tools apart is the real-world experience behind them. Unlike guides written by medical professionals or academics, her approach comes from sitting across the table with families, hearing their fears, and helping them navigate resistance, finances, logistics, and everything in between.
The book and workbook are already earning praise from adult children, caregivers, and senior care professionals. They’re also being recommended by elder care attorneys, care managers, and senior living advisors-professionals who want to offer families more than just a brochure. They want to give them a plan.
In addition to her writing, Ross offers consulting for families, speaking engagements, podcast interviews, and book signings.

Whether you’re helping a parent, spouse, or client, Senior Living Made S.I.M.P.L.E. and its companion workbook offer more than just answers – they provide peace of mind during one of life’s most difficult transitions.
