Our Services
True Assist provides referrals to individuals and their families who are seeking assisted living facility, adult/ senior facility, and/or care provider options. We analyze your specific care needs, non-care needs, budget, desired geographical areas and other needs and desires and provide a list of participating assisted living facilities and/or home care providers (each a “Participating Provider” and collectively the “Participating Provider”) which most closely match the demographics provided and we forward the individual’s and/or family’s information to those Participating Providers. All of our Participating Providers have warranted that they are licensed in the state of operation. True Assist does not recommend or endorse any particular Participating Provider. The decision as to which Participating Provider to choose is entirely your responsibility. True Assist is not a party to, nor do we prepare, review or negotiate any contract or agreement entered into between you and a Participating Provider. We receive compensation from the Participating Provider when you utilize and pay for their services. Participating Providers are prohibited from charging more to referred individuals as a result of our Services. We do not solicit, receive or accept gifts or referral incentives from Participating Providers. True Assist may provide you with resources for additional professional service providers, such as elder law attorneys, will and trust attorneys, veteran’s advocates, financial advisors, realtors and/or accountants in order to assist you with developing a comprehensive care plan. We do not solicit, receive or accept gifts, or incentives from referred professional service providers.
Participating Providers
The Participating Providers are solely responsible for evaluating, accepting (or declining, as appropriate), and caring for all contracted individuals and/or residents, including, without limitation, ensuring that their staff are appropriately qualified, current on education, and possess the necessary skills, facilities, resources, and equipment to competently provide the services and care required by its contracted individuals and/or residents. Each Participating Provider is responsible for the conditions of its services and/or at its community and the training of and acts and omissions of its employees, contractors, vendors, and any other individual who works at, for, or on behalf of the Participating Provider.

Further, we are not a representative of or agent for you, the potential resident/care recipient, or the Participating Provider and do not act on any of the aforementioned behalf. It is the responsibility solely of the Participating Provider and the potential resident/care recipient, and/or the potential resident’s or care recipient’s family and care provider(s) and/or other involved parties acting on the potential resident’s or care recipient’s behalf to determine if such individual is an appropriate admission to, or recipient of services from, the Participating Provider.
