As family members search for resources, products and services that would be appropriate for their loved ones they must sift through multiple listings. He or she may start with local yellow page listings or utilize a key word search on the Internet. This person may also use one of the various senior service print directories. What these listings don't reveal, 'who do you trust with your loved one?'

"What the consumer wants, according to our research, is some method to ascertain which company will in fact provide an excellent quality service," states Ms. Mascio. "The consumer of elder care resources also wants one contact person, one source to locate any and all services needed now or in the future and they want this service to advocate for the senior, not the elder care business. This is exactly what we have developed."
