# Who Is Elderado?

## **Daniel Clarke, Founder of Elderado**  
- Former family caregiver to my Grandma  
- My Grandma had lupus, was hospitalized, and needed to move into a long-term care home or a retirement home  

![image](https://storage.googleapis.com/elderado-prod/-KDlw8xl9-SAM_4677.jpg)

## The Problem 
- Navigating elder care options is hard!
- There's limited resources to support families - even among social workers and discharge planners

## **The Solution**  
- If we can compare hotels around the world on Booking.com, why can't we compare elder care homes?  
- In 2023, we started building our **database of all 1,400 long-term care and retirement homes in Ontario**  

# What does Elderado do?
## **A Free, Unbiased Website**  
- Search, filter, compare, and contact **every long-term care and retirement home in Ontario** 
- Works like Booking.com for elder care  

![image](https://storage.googleapis.com/elderado-prod/-jI5xFJu4-Elderado%203%20screens%20mobile%20(1).png)

## **How It Works**  
1. **Search by location** – e.g., within 10 km of Whitby  
2. **Apply filters** – care services, price, language, culture, and more  
3. **Compare homes** – view:  
   - Video tours  
   - Inspection reports  
   - Google reviews  
   - Sample menus
   - Activity calendars  
4. **Contact homes directly** – schedule a tour or ask questions  
5. **Find resources** – learn about applying for long-term care  

## **Key Difference**  
- No ranking of homes  
- Unbiased - we don't suggest homes in return for payment
- Families make informed decisions based on their needs

If you come across an older adult, or a family who needs elder care, we can help them navigate their option. 
- Free, easy-to-use tool for navigating elder care options

# National Caregiver Day 2025: We're by your side

April 1, 2025 is **National Caregiver Day** in Canada - a day to recognize the caregivers who provide vital support to aging parents, spouses, friends, and family.

Whether you're helping a parent with dementia, supporting a spouse through illness, or coordinating care for a grandparent, your work matters. **Unpaid caregivers keep our healthcare system afloat in Ontario** and across the country. Without their energy, love, and sacrifice our healthcare system simply wouldn't function.

---

## Support for Caregivers in Ontario

At **Elderado**, we work every day to make elder care easier to navigate. That includes supporting the people who provide care - often without pay, training, or time to rest.

Caregiving is always going to be hard. But there's things things we can fix - and that's what we're trying to do. We believe it should be straightforward for families to be able to nagivate and compare elder care options, and be confident they found the best care for their care needs, preferences, and budget.

## Why National Caregiver Day Matters

In Canada, **millions of people are unpaid caregivers** - supporting loved ones through aging, illness, or disability. But so much if this work is invisible, and undervalued.

- **Over 1 in 4 Canadians** aged 15+ provide unpaid care to a family member or friend.
- Many caregivers juggle full-time jobs, parenting, and caregiving responsibilities.
- Caregiving is emotionally and physically demanding, with real impacts on mental health.

Today is about more than gratitude - it's about visibility, recognition, and change.

Rate reductions continue to be available to low-income individuals living in a basic room, or partners living together in a two-bed semi-private room that has been redesignated as basic accommodation.

*From the Ministry of Long-Term Care*

All residents receiving a rate reduction should re-apply for a reduction in the basic co-payment rate for the 2024-25 cycle, beginning on July 1, 2024. Staff at your LTC home will provide you with the application form and will help you to submit your application to the Ministry of Long-Term Care.

## How Elderado Supports Dementia Care in Ontario

Elderado is a free online platform that simplifies the process of finding the right elder care option—whether you’re planning ahead or responding to a hospital discharge. We help families:
- **Compare retirement homes and long-term care homes in Ontario**
- **Filter homes by language of care, cultural preferences, and services**
- **Access inspection reports, video tours, menus, and activity calendars**
- **Connect directly with homes that meet your needs**

This grant recognizes Elderado’s potential to improve **care navigation for people living with dementia** and their families—especially when language or cultural needs make the process even harder.

Our work supports families who are often under pressure to make fast decisions without enough information. Elderado provides tools and insights that make it easier to choose the right care home with confidence.

---

## What the Grant Will Support

With CABHI’s funding and expert support, Elderado will expand our platform’s ability to:
- Highlight **homes with dementia care programs**
- Make it easier to **search by cultural and language preferences**
- Improve the experience for families from **diverse communities across Ontario**
- Strengthen Elderado’s role as a trusted resource in **dementia care navigation**

We’re especially excited to work with CABHI’s **Leap validation platform** to incorporate direct feedback from people living with dementia, caregivers, and health professionals.

---

## Why This Matters

Dementia affects over 600,000 Canadians—and that number is growing. For many families, the search for elder care is complicated by urgent timelines, language barriers, and a lack of transparent information. Elderado was built to address that problem.

With CABHI’s support, we’ll continue making elder care more accessible, inclusive, and transparent for all Ontarians.

Stoney Creek: A Thriving Community for a Fulfilling Senior Retirement

The Ministry of Long-Term Care in Ontario is planning to test a new system to help people find spots in long-term care (LTC) homes that match their culture, religion, language, or ethnicity, and there is an open call for comment [HERE](https://www.ontariocanada.com/registry/view.do?postingId=49135&language=en#:~:text=The%20Ministry%20of%20Long%2DTerm,religious%20and%20linguistically%20appropriate%20care.). This project, called the Long-Term Care Homes Cultural Pilot Project, will try to make it easier for people to get into homes where they feel more at home culturally.

Some LTC homes in Ontario focus on serving specific cultural or religious groups. But recently, these homes have seen fewer residents who match the culture they aim to support, and fewer spots are available that meet applicants' cultural needs. This makes it harder for these homes to offer the cultural, religious, and language support their residents need.

The current system puts people on a waiting list for LTC homes based on how urgently they need a spot. In this pilot project, the Ministry wants to test a new way of organizing these waitlists for people in crisis (those in category 1). For the homes selected to participate, people on the crisis waiting list who share the culture or religion that the home primarily serves could be prioritized, even if others on the list are also in crisis.

To make this pilot work, the Ministry would change the rules for ranking applicants. In designated homes, people with an urgent need for care would still be ranked first, but if two or more people have the same level of urgency, the applicant who matches the home’s cultural focus would get priority.

The goal is to see if this new ranking system can help improve access to culturally appropriate long-term care for Ontarians.

# Amica Retirement Homes

Anytime I've walked into an Amica retirement home it's felt like luxury.  You can see it in the premium finishes, and feel it in the way spaces are designed and decorated - and Amica Taunton is no exception.

![image](https://storage.googleapis.com/elderado-prod/-2XLFd67k-IMG_1534.JPEG)

# The Food at Amica Taunton
The only food I've eaten at Amica Taunton are appetizers at networking events, and they knock those out of the park, so all indications are that they've earned their reputation for great food.  Plus [the menu](https://brand.amica.ca/m/ffba2cc2d049a6ba/original/Amica-Sample-Menu.pdf?_gl=1*crb3l5*_ga*OTA5Nzc4NDE1LjE3MDg0MzcwMDU.*_ga_C95C09FJCY*MTcwODgwMDU0NC4zLjEuMTcwODgwMDY0My40NS4wLjA.) looks great, and a resident I was chatting with raved about the salmon and creme brule.
## Location - Just east of Brock Street on Taunton Road
Amica Taunton is in a great location if you're mobile.  There's a Starbucks and Tim Hortons within walking distance, as well as all sorts of other shops and restaurants.  Amica Taunton is on a fairly busy road - Taunton Road, just east of Brock Street - but they've orientated the retirement home to face away from the road, so it feels quite calm and peaceful at the main entrance.

# The Rooms at Amica Taunton

Inside the suites, there's all the obvious things - they have the rooms staged beautifully with well thoughtout layouts.  If I'm getting down to it, there's 3 things about the room that stand out to me.

1. **Roll-in shower.**  This is a big plus for me!  If I am looking at a retirement suite for myself, I want one with a shower that does not have any sort of step or lip.  I've been sore after a long run and had some trouble getting into the shower, so I can see how this can be a problem down the line.  This could help me maintain independence.
2. **Balcony.**  My wife and I were those people who actually used their tiny condo balcony and loved it.  A suite with a balcony is definitely a plus.
3. **In-suite laundry.**  I've always felt like where I do my laundry is my home, and I think having in-suite laundry would help me transitioning to a retirement home - making it my new home.  This wouldn't be a deal breaker, but definitely bonus points that Amica Taunton has it!

![image](https://storage.googleapis.com/elderado-prod/-NgobnoBX-IMG_1536.JPEG)

![image](https://storage.googleapis.com/elderado-prod/-yp8WsJ77-IMG_1535.JPEG)

# The price for a suite at Amica Taunton
Let's call a spade a spade, Amica is known as a premium retirement home.  If you're looking for the least expensive retirement home, it's not likely going to be an Amica home.  But I was surprised to find out they currently have studios starting from $3,995* - it's not the cheapest option, but it's competitive.  I don't know the terms, but if I was looking for independent living somewhere in Durham, I'd call [Amica Taunton](https://www.elderado.ca/info/T0633/amica-taunton) to find out.
