Placement Agency

Southern Arizona Placement Agency (SAPA) helps seniors and their families find suitable, affordable care in Tucson and surrounding communities, including Marana, Vail, Green Valley, and Oro Valley. Its mission is to inform and empower older adults with resources that support independent living while addressing their changing care needs. With more than 26 years of experience, the agency offers personalized placement guidance for Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, respite care, hospice, in-home assistance, and other levels of support, including around-the-clock care.

SAPA’s specialists meet with seniors and families to understand their preferences, needs, location, and budget, then identify appropriate care options. The agency also provides cost consultations and guided tours, explains available services, and remains involved after a move to help ensure the placement continues to meet the family’s needs. Its placement assistance is provided at no cost to clients; the agency says it is paid by participating care providers. Led by owner Tess Mew, SAPA emphasizes compassionate, informed support throughout the process of finding a new home.
