Please use Senior Care Compass as a guide—not as a substitute for professional judgment.

1. Informational service only

Senior Care Compass provides educational information, resource links, public provider data, checklists, and planning tools. It does not provide medical diagnosis or treatment, legal advice, financial advice, insurance advice, case management, professional placement services, or a guarantee that any benefit, provider, facility, service, or level of care is appropriate or available.

2. No professional relationship

Using the site does not create a doctor-patient, nurse-patient, attorney-client, financial-adviser, insurance-agent, social-worker, care-manager, fiduciary, or other professional relationship with Senior Care Compass or its operator.

3. Emergencies

Do not use this website to manage an emergency. If someone may be in immediate danger or experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or the appropriate local emergency service. The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is available in the United States for crisis support.

4. Provider and benefit information

Provider results may come from CMS, NPPES, and other public sources. A listing does not mean Senior Care Compass endorses, recommends, verifies, licenses, credentials, or guarantees that provider. Benefit descriptions are general and do not determine eligibility, coverage, payment, or entitlement. Always verify current information directly with the provider, program, insurer, licensing authority, or government agency.

5. External links

Links are provided for convenience and education. Senior Care Compass does not control outside websites and is not responsible for their availability, content, privacy practices, security, products, services, or changes.

6. Acceptable use

You may use the site for lawful personal, family, caregiving, educational, and ordinary professional-reference purposes. You may not intentionally disrupt the service, attempt unauthorized access, introduce malicious code, impersonate another person, misuse provider information for unlawful purposes, or use the site to facilitate fraud or abuse.

7. Intellectual property

Original Senior Care Compass text, organization, checklists, artwork, visual design, and software code are protected to the extent provided by copyright and other applicable law. You may view, print, or save reasonable portions for personal, caregiving, educational, or other lawful use. You may not reproduce the site as a competing branded service, remove ownership notices, sell copied site materials, or commercially exploit substantial original content without permission, except where the law permits.

Government data, facts, ideas, public-domain materials, third-party trademarks, and third-party content are not claimed as exclusive Senior Care Compass property merely because they appear on or are linked from the site.

8. No warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” Senior Care Compass disclaims warranties that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, complete, current, fit for a particular purpose, or suitable for a particular health, care, legal, financial, or insurance decision.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Senior Care Compass and its operator will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from use of or reliance on the site, external websites, provider listings, benefit information, or interrupted service. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded or limits rights that applicable consumer law does not permit a website operator to waive.

10. Indemnification for unlawful misuse

To the extent permitted by law, a user who intentionally uses the site unlawfully or in violation of these Terms agrees to be responsible for claims and reasonable costs caused by that unlawful misuse. This clause does not shift responsibility to a user for Senior Care Compass’s own unlawful conduct.

11. Changes, severability, and applicable law

Features and these Terms may be updated. If one provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions should continue to the extent permitted by law. Applicable federal and state law governs according to ordinary legal rules. A specific governing-law/venue clause should be added when the final legal owner/operator of the site is formally designated.
