Moving a loved one into senior living (nursing home, assisted living, or rehab) comes with a thousand decisions and not a lot of time. That’s why we built The Golden Move Essentials Kits: curated-to-order basics that make a new space feel safe, comfortable, and personal—without handing you a giant shopping list.
What’s a “kit,” exactly?
Our kits are collections of thoughtfully chosen essentials for each area of the home—bedroom, bathroom, kitchen/kitchenette, living room, and storage. Every selection is tailored to your space, facility guidelines, budget, and style, then prepped and delivered room-ready. No cart. No guesswork. Just the right things, curated to order.

Most families blend items they already own with our kits. We help you fill the gaps and add the small touches that bring comfort and dignity from day one.
What’s included (at a glance)
We focus on the fundamentals that make daily life easier and safer:
Safety & lighting: pathway/night lighting, simple controls, layout that reduces trip hazards
Daily living & comfort: soft goods, gentle hygiene basics, easy organization
Orientation & routine: large clock/date, simple storage, labels so everything has a place
Personal touches: finishes, fabrics, and styling that feel familiar—not “institutional”
What’s not included: Our kits do not include large furniture or electronics (beds, dressers, armchairs/sofas, dining/kitchen tables, TVs). We do include safety furniture essentials such as an over-bed/hospital table and other compact, facility-approved pieces. Need big furniture? We can source and deliver as an add-on.
The kit lineup and typical starting points
Core Essentials Kit — starts around $300
A safe, comfortable foundation: basic safety and lighting, daily-living and personal-care essentials, simple cleaning and organization, and clear labeling.
Bedroom Essentials Kit — starts around $400
Hospital-bed–friendly bedding and protectors, soft night lighting, practical surfaces (over-bed/side tables), and calming touches that feel like home.
Bathroom Essentials Kit — starts around $150
Safety-minded basics for private or shared baths, soft linens, gentle hygiene staples, and discreet, easy-reach storage.
Kitchen/Kitchenette Essentials Kit — starts around $250
Hydration and snack setup, easy-grip dishware and utensils, simple prep/cleanup tools, and smart storage—always aligned with facility rules.
Living Room Essentials Kit — starts around $300
Warm ambient lighting, orientation cues (large clock/date), and personal touches—like decor, curtains, and simple tech—for easier visits and daily routines.
Bonus: Storage/Closet Essentials Kit — starts around $200
Laundry and storage solutions that keep belongings safe, clean, organized, and off the floor.
Planning number: For a studio assisted-living or rehab space, we see families budget $2,000–$2,500 for setup (mixing new items with things you already own). Final pricing depends on selections, quantities, and any add-ons such as large-furniture sourcing or on-site setup.

Who this helps most

Why curated-to-order beats cart-scrolling
Because “home” is a feeling, not a SKU. We eliminate guesswork, reduce returns, and make sure what arrives is safe, useful, and loved—not just “bought.”
