We're Local and Ready to
Serve You and Your Family

I’m Don Ashbaugh, the local owner and operator of Caring Transitions of Madison, and I opened this business because I’m passionate about helping people. I studied and published articles during my academic career regarding the use of age in business research and age discrimination. I have also had successful careers in insurance, appraisal, and photography. All of the steps in my career involves helping people but I was ready to do something that made a more immediate tangible impact. I was ready for a career change. I enjoy working with seniors and their families and, when I found Caring Transitions, I saw a unique opportunity to bring a much-needed service to this community. Caring Transitions of Madison has been in business since early 2015 and we have built customized plans for clients in many different stages of the process. We are truly a one-stop-shop – we fill in the gaps wherever you need help and, if you need a service we can’t provide, we have a trusted network of partners we can call. I am a registered WI auctioneer (#2860), have served on the Fitchburg Commission on Aging Well, the Board of Directors of the Dane County Area Agency on Aging, and currently serve on the Dane County Specialized Transportation Commission. These credentials speak to the respect we've gained in our community as well as to the professionalism and commitment to excellence and ethical operation we embrace in this largely unregulated industry.
