Seniors Socializing

About M&P Enterprises

​

M&P Enterprises was started in 2018 when Patricia Perry and Molly Elkins saw the need for a premier senior living consulting business to provide turn-key services to assisted living, memory care and independent living communities. The idea was to provide for adaptability in traditional consulting and management services; but take those services to the next level to include: new facility planning, compliance with state regulations, reputation management, risk management, care navigation, and asset management. With a rising number of senior citizens and ever growing elderly population across the nation, M&P is poised to provide the best assisted living services for seniors. The choice to engage in a smaller portfolio of clients keeps M&P focused and has given them a community- proven track record of being a leader in senior living.
