About us
Maggie McGrath founded Sonoran Senior Solutions after seeing, again and again, how overwhelming senior care decisions feel when they arrive all at once. She brings nearly 20 years of advocating for loved ones in crisis and end-of-life care in Tucson.
Always no-cost to you and your family.
Today a small, local team does the legwork for you: researching, coordinating and problem-solving, so your family can spend its energy on each other. Our guidance is always no-cost to you and your family.
Founder and Client Advisor
CSA, Certified Senior Advisor®
Maggie knows how different it feels to face a big decision with clarity and an experienced guide beside you. She meets families in person or virtually, takes the time to understand the whole situation, and lays out clear options and a plan that makes sense.
Her years in crisis and end-of-life advocacy gave her a deep knowledge of Tucson's senior care landscape, including options many families don't know exist. At the heart of her work is careful listening to each family's story, priorities and worries.
Where it started
One of Maggie's first experiences coordinating care was for her grandfather, Boris. It was fulfilling, complicated and beautiful, and it sparked her calling.
Long before he needed help, Boris was a ballplayer, as his 1949 baseball card shows.
Years later, when Boris needed help, Maggie learned firsthand how confusing and emotional the world of senior care can be.
She decided that if she could make sense of the confusion for other families, she would. Educating and guiding families became her mission.

In the community
Maggie recently taught a class at OLLI-UA, the University of Arizona's lifelong learning institute, on navigating senior living. It was part of a series on aging organized by Nicole J. Smith, author of Diagnosis Dementia and a fellow Certified Senior Advisor.
How does senior living actually work? What should you ask? What are families rarely told? Knowing before a crisis helps, and if you are already in one, that is what we are here for.
Every family’s path looks different. We’ll help you find yours.
In their words
From the first phone call, it felt like we were talking to family. Alia listened to our concerns and took so much stress off our shoulders. The Sonoran team truly cares about the families they help, and we’re forever grateful for their support.
When I met with Maggie, she gave me so much of her time and I felt like she was trying to get all the details; she wanted to get to know the person she was trying to place so she could make sure that it would be a solid match. I felt no pressure to move forward on anyone's timeline but mine, she did the leg work to find great options for us, and she followed through to make sure we got setup and moved in properly once we made a decision.
Maggie facilitated so much for us—we still can’t believe we found her. Our family was overwhelmed with a home full of decades of belongings, and we felt completely frozen. Maggie knew exactly what to do. She connected us with services we never would have found on our own, getting us from point A to point B. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Sonoran Senior Solutions!

Bless you Sonoran Senior Services!!!
