Certified Senior Advisor (CSA) · Detroit Senior Advisor
Sandra Boyd is a Certified Senior Advisor with more than 20 years helping Southeast Michigan families navigate assisted living placement, memory care, and the Medicaid maze across the Metro Detroit region. She specializes in untangling cost and payment questions — Michigan's MI Choice Medicaid waiver and the MI Health Link Medicare-Medicaid dual demonstration, the Detroit Area Agency on Aging and Area Agency on Aging 1-B, and how Oakland County costs compare to Wayne and Macomb counties — for families under pressure. Sandra has personally toured communities across Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, and Washtenaw counties and knows how neighborhood and county shape the math on every placement.
Sandra Boyd contributes practical, Michigan-specific guidance to the Detroit Senior Advisor blog. Our advice is free to families and grounded in current LARA licensing data and MI Choice Medicaid rules.
Free, no-pressure call. We work for families, not facilities.
