Reporting On Elder Care Businesses

We do not use negative reporting or fear tactics to inform consumers on elder care services. We have chosen to take the positive approach by focusing our attention on those elder care businesses that can prove their commitment to serving our senior citizens. Each service within our exclusive network is literally approved and endorsed by the very seniors they currently serve.

Not every business would open itself to such scrutiny, especially given the fact that this consumer-driven survey process is not mandated. Not only is this voluntary, each business within our network has paid a fee for the survey process. That in itself should alert you to the fact that these businesses are not only confident in their ability to serve our elderly with great care, they are willing to prove it.

Nay Sayers have said all along, "Barb, you'll never get businesses to agree to this, let alone pay for the survey process", followed by, "You will have to offer this at no charge to the business community and charge the senior for your service."

I feel (strongly) that seniors should not have to pay just for the privilege of learning which service is safe to use, which service will meet his or her needs and budgets. Seniors are hit hard enough these days.

The business community is beginning to understand how very much our elderly (and their family caregivers) truly want a third-party unbiased source to validate history of care. Additionally, the business community is grasping the benefit of the Senior Approved Certification as a method to elevate themselves from their competition.

If you would like to help us reach more businesses and encourage them to apply for certification, I personally, would be most grateful. You may do this in one of two organized manners. See Advocate or by applying for a telecommuting position by following the directions at Employment Opp

Business owners offering products, resources or services for the elderly, disabled and/or for their adult children, please read what other businesses have to say about what it means to be Certified as a Senior Approved Service.

We need your help in order to reach our lofty goal of advocating for the right of all seniors to receive excellent and safe care. Help us point seniors towards your excellent service!
