Simple Senior Solutions Steps Up! 

Senior Living Transition with Love

By Janette Calabro

For many families, the conversation about senior living starts quietly but can turn into something overwhelming. Maybe Mom has fallen once too often, or Dad’s memory isn’t what it used to be. Maybe they want to downsize and enjoy life in a 55+ community without the burden of home maintenance. Wherever the journey begins, one thing is almost universal: Families don’t know where to start. That’s when Hannah Diediker, the co-founder of Simple Senior Solutions, steps in. Hannah is a certified senior advisor (CSA). She and her team of advisors understand that a senior living transition isn’t just physical—it’s also a very emotional process. 

Founded on the belief that no family should navigate the transition to senior living alone, Simple Senior Solutions has become a trusted local resource for families across the region—from Blair to Plattsmouth, from Fremont to Council Bluffs. Their mission is simple, compassionate, and powerful: guiding seniors and their loved ones to the right living solutions with clarity, dignity, and peace of mind. 

“Think of us as real estate agents for senior living,” says Hannah. But instead of selling houses, Hannah and her team guide families through one of the most emotional and complex decisions they may ever face. Whether someone is considering independent living, assisted living, memory care, or a 55+ community, Simple Senior Solutions looks at the whole picture, beginning with a free consultation. Instead of information overload, clients get clear directions and a trusted guide every step of the way. 

“We look at finances, needs, and their health picture, and we narrow it down to just a few communities that meet that criteria,” Hannah shares. “That way, families aren’t cold calling all over the place or touring endlessly.”

What truly sets them apart, Hannah says, is their deeply personalized service. From the first consultation, everything is tailored to the client’s unique situation. Advisors don’t just make recommendations; they attend tours, asking all the right questions to help families see past brochures and sales pitches. They stay involved until a decision is made. 

“We travel to our clients,” she notes. “We know transportation can be an issue, so we make it as easy as possible. We can move them in and unpack their things in their new home.” That’s another thing that makes Simple Senior Solutions unique—they’re trained to bring the muscles for the move as well as the emotional support that’s needed. 

Another unique detail is that the senior living consultations are free to clients. The advisors are paid through referral partnerships with senior living communities, which means that families pay literally no consultation fees at all. This structure allows advisors to focus on what matters—finding a living community that fits both care needs and budget. The result is less stress and less time researching. 

“We make it easier for families and the client to make a decision,” Hannah explains. “We make sure clients aren’t moving into a place above their means, which is beneficial for asset preservation. There are places out there that offer great care. Some may not have all the bells and whistles, but they’re more affordable.” 

Hannah understands that senior living decisions don’t just affect one person. The team is there for spouses and family members as well, and their outreach extends even further. The company is veteran-owned and operated—Hannah and her husband, Andrew, are both veterans—with advocacy for senior veterans as a core part of its mission. “We make sure senior veterans can tap into the benefits they’re eligible for that help pay for long-term care.” 

In June, Tiffany Hagget joined the team as an advisor. A Council Bluffs native, Tiffany brings a wealth of experience as a community educator with the Alzheimer’s Association. Prior to joining the team, she served as the executive director of a senior living community. She’s proud to strengthen the company’s commitment to education, memory care, and local connection. “We have a mission to provide outreach and community education,” says Hannah. “Everything we do is 100 percent individualized for our clients and their situations.” 

For families who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of their next step, the guidance and compassion they receive from Simple Senior Solutions is priceless. Literally. “Helping a parent find the right senior living is the ultimate act of love,” says Hannah. “Love looks like planning ahead, reducing stress, and building independence with dignity.” 

Free senior living consultations are available for families (the only paid service is moving support). When it comes to the people we care about, Hannah Diediker believes that no family should have to do it alone.
