Helping Families Find the Care We Would Want for Our Own Loved Ones

ElderCare Placement Advisors began with a deeply personal understanding of what excellent senior care can mean to a family.

Multiple members of my family, including my grandmother, lived in adult family homes during the later years of their lives. They received excellent care, and our family had the peace of mind of knowing they were safe, supported, and cared for by people we trusted.

That experience stayed with me. I want every family to have the opportunity to find that same level of care for someone they love. I founded ElderCare Placement Advisors to help make that possible. - Katie

Experience Behind Every Recommendation

Our team combines clinical expertise, firsthand senior care experience, local provider knowledge, and experienced leadership. That combination helps us look beyond availability and amenities to consider what matters most: whether a care setting is truly equipped to support the person who will call it home.

We understand what excellent care looks like because our team has spent decades providing it, and our own families have experienced its importance firsthand.

Local Knowledge. Personal Commitment.

We are a local company with deep experience serving families throughout King and Snohomish Counties, with placement support also available across Western Washington. We personally evaluate the senior living communities and adult family homes we recommend and take the responsibility that comes with recommending care seriously.

Behind every search is a real person whose safety, dignity, comfort, and quality of life matter. Our goal is to give families knowledgeable people in their corner who understand senior care, know the local landscape, and genuinely care about what happens after the move.
