How We Make Money

    Last updated January 16, 2025

    At Mirador Home Care, we're committed to transparency. Families often ask how we're able to provide our free home care search services, and we're happy to explain.

    Our Mission

    Since our founding, our mission has been simple: help families find the best in-home care services for their loved ones. We believe this important decision shouldn't come with a price tag for families, which is why all of our services are completely free to use.

    How Our Free Service Works

    Mirador Home Care provides a comprehensive national directory of home care agencies, including companion care, personal care, skilled nursing, and other in-home care options. You can search our database, compare agencies, view services and pricing estimates, read reviews, and contact agencies—all without any cost to you.

    When you use our service, we invest time in understanding your needs, preferences, and budget to help match you with agencies that are the right fit. Our goal is to make your search easier and more informed.

    Referral Fees

    Here's how we sustain our free service: when a family engages a home care agency after using Mirador Home Care, that agency may pay us a referral fee. This is a standard practice in the home care industry, similar to how real estate agents are compensated.

    Important: Whether an agency pays us a referral fee or not has no impact on:

    • Which agencies appear in our directory
    • How we present information to you
    • The recommendations we make
    • The service we provide

    Our commitment is always to help you find the best fit for your needs, regardless of business relationships.

    What You Should Know

    • Always free for families: You will never be charged for using Mirador Home Care's services
    • No hidden costs: Agencies don't charge you more because you found them through us
    • Your choice matters: You're never obligated to use any agency we show you
    • Independent research: We encourage you to do your own research, interview multiple agencies, ask questions, and make the decision that's right for you and your family
    • We don't endorse: While we provide information and reviews, inclusion in our directory doesn't constitute an endorsement. We recommend thoroughly vetting any agency you're considering.

    Our Commitment to You

    We take seriously the trust families place in us during what can be a difficult and emotional time. Our business model is designed to align our interests with yours—we succeed when you find an agency where your loved one will receive excellent care.

    We're committed to:

    • Maintaining accurate, up-to-date information about agencies
    • Providing transparent pricing estimates
    • Hosting honest reviews from real families
    • Respecting your privacy and protecting your personal information
    • Supporting you throughout your search process
