The company is focused on improving the way people find senior care through sharing verified consumer reviews and ratings. The annual SeniorAdvisor.com Best of Senior Living Awards recognize outstanding senior living and home care providers who have received consistently high ratings from residents and their families. The award places winners in the top one percent of senior care providers nationwide.

“These award-winning providers are raising the bar in the senior care industry, and families are noticing,” said Eric Seifert, president of SeniorAdvisor.com. “Seniors and their loved ones are writing more online reviews than ever before. This year alone, we saw a 36 percent increase in the average number of reviews each winner has. It’s because of the amazing work these organizations and their staff perform, and the increasing volume of the consumer online voice, that we were able to expand our awards program this year to over 1,000 winners. We’re honored to highlight these providers, and we’re especially excited this year to see more nursing homes and home care providers embracing online reviews.”
