About Care Placement

Finding a care provider for a loved one in need can be a stressful, heart-rending experience. It’s difficult enough to adjust to a decline in health. Pile on top of that the need to make life-changing decisions with very little time. That’s why we’re here. We appreciate you considering our team to help you and your family through this challenging time. Let us take a few minutes to introduce ourselves and explain about how Care Placement got started.

In short: Care Placement has been helping families find eldercare solutions since 2000. Over the years, we have helped more than 35,000 families in Southern California. We have over 2,500 licensed care facilities in our database, with many of which we have developed close connections. That allows us to provide families with more refined, tailored referrals.

The idea began while our founders were searching for care for their own family member. They realized how difficult it is to find the perfect match. Just as their loved one’s needs were unique to the individual, so every care home is unique in the care it provides. No one knew the specialties of the different homes. The people searching needed help finding providers, and the providers needed help finding people to care for.

After their own experience searching for a Senior Care Provider, our founders knew right away they wanted to help the eldercare industry, so they set out to open a care home. During a class for Care Home Administrators, a discussion came up about how difficult it is for providers to find patients to care for. That was when they decided Socal needed someone to bridge the gap, to help seniors and providers find each other.

Nearly 25 years later, we haven’t lost sight of that initial goal: to make connections. Care Placement is dedicated to helping families in San Diego and Orange Counties in their time of need. We strive to always provide exceptional service from a knowledgeable and compassionate team of senior care advisors.

How We Work

Care Placement’s experienced and friendly advisors are committed to helping take some of that pressure and anxiety away by walking you through the process and narrowing the thousands of options down to just those that fit your specific needs and budget. Our “hands on” approach to helping our families makes locating a Care Provider as uncomplicated as possible.

We carefully consider with you the unique needs of your loved one, medically, emotionally, and financially.

Our services are completely free to families since we are compensated through a “finder’s fee” paid by the care provider. This does not result in surcharges or higher rent for the families because it is part of the care provider’s pre-budgeted marketing costs.

Care Placement offers assistance for Seniors (60+) into Residential Care Homes (Board & Care), Assisted Living or Memory Care. We also partner with a number of organizations who can help seniors with other needs. Some of our partners are: reputable In-Home Care Service agencies and VA Accredited agencies (who assist in the filing process for the Veteran’s Aid & Attendance Benefits).

What Makes Us Different

We’re locally owned and have personal relationships with many of the senior care facilities in the San Diego and Orange County areas. We do not suggest homes to you unless we’re sure those homes offer excellent care, nor are we part of an online mega-corporation. Our primary goal is to help families in our community find good quality care and services within their budget. Knowing they are happy and well cared for gives us the great satisfaction of a job well done.

All Team Members of Care Placement are Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE) Licensed, and are well-read in the laws and regulations for all care options.
