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
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
How It Works
- Search by location – e.g., within 10 km of Whitby
- Apply filters – care services, price, language, culture, and more
- Compare homes – view:
- Video tours
- Inspection reports
- Google reviews
- Sample menus
- Activity calendars
- Contact homes directly – schedule a tour or ask questions
- 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
