Susan Heymann
Certified Dementia Practitioner
Co-Founder of Senior Living Specialist Chicago
Senior Advisor
I was born and raised in the North Shore of Chicago. After attending Miami of Ohio, I worked as a stockbroker for several years before settling down in Deerfield where I raised three wonderful children. My recent experience, caring for my aging father, connected me with many different people in the greater senior living community. I love helping all people and finding meaning in working alongside seniors and their families. In my spare time, I enjoy painting, antiquing, gardening, playing with my dogs and being a proud board member of Project H.O.O.D. of Chicago.

Ronda Parmacek
Certified Dementia Practitioner
Senior Advisor
I chose a career working with seniors after helping guide my grandparents through the maze many years ago. I now have over twelve years of experience in the Senior Living industry, and I have worked both inside and outside communities in many different capacities. In addition to care & safety, I know from an internal perspective what it takes to “make a community great.” And because of my experience working outside of communities, I know what it takes to find families the “right fit” for their loved ones.
The search itself can be very overwhelming and difficult, not only for your loved one but for the entire family. I hope I have the privilege of working with your family to find the right solution that will keep your loved ones safe and enrich their life as well.

Senior Advisor
As a registered nurse of 15 years, I understand the importance of active listening, empathy, and compassion. I take pride in serving as an advocate for individuals and their families as they navigate care options and prepare for a life transition. After caring for those in the hospital, outpatient settings, and assisting with long term care community transitions, I place emphasis on both quality care and social enrichment. I look forward to providing a supportive atmosphere by learning about your family’s needs and honoring your preferences. Reach Tess by phone – 224-999-2955
