Find the right care for your parent. Without the conflict of interest.
Most eldercare referral services are paid by the facilities they recommend. Ora isn’t. We show you every licensed option — rated by government inspection data, not paid reviews — and explain what their insurance covers, in plain language.
You don't know what you don't know
Most families have 3–10 days to figure out a care transition they've never navigated before. You're searching Google while someone you love is waiting on a hospital bed.
The 'free' services aren't neutral
A Place for Mom and Caring.com are paid a commission by every facility they recommend — often equal to one month's rent. They only show you the facilities that pay them.
Insurance is a black box
What does Medicare actually cover? What's the out-of-pocket for a skilled nursing stay? Most families find out after the bill arrives.
How Ora works
Tell us about your parent's situation
Share their location, care needs, and insurance type. Takes about 5 minutes. No account required to see results.
See every option, ranked by what matters
We pull from CMS government data covering every Medicare/Medicaid-certified facility. We show you inspection findings, staffing ratios, and what their insurance covers — in plain English.
Escalate when you need a human
For complex situations — Medicaid planning, power of attorney, guardianship — connect with a licensed elder law attorney directly from the platform.
Most eldercare services are paid by providers. We’re paid by you.
That difference shapes every result you see.
