Detroit Senior Advisor is a free senior care advisory service for Detroit and Southeast Michigan families. We help you understand the options, compare licensed local communities, and move forward with confidence — whether the need is urgent or months away.
Here's the deal. We answer to families, not facilities. Our help costs you nothing because a community only pays us if your loved one chooses to move in. We never resell your information, and we never hand it off to a dozen sales teams. We hand-match you to one to three vetted options that actually fit your care needs, budget, and preferred area.
What makes us different
- Local, not a national call center: we cover Metro Detroit across Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, and Washtenaw counties, and we know the communities firsthand.
- Free for families: no fees, ever, for our help.
- Licensed and compliant: we operate as a paid referral service under Michigan's senior-care referral and disclosure standards, and only refer to LARA-licensed communities with a clean record on the LARA Adult Foster Care & Homes for the Aged licensing search.
- Hand-matched: one to three options chosen for your situation — not a spreadsheet of everything.

Detroit Senior Advisor is one of the locally staffed senior care advisory offices operating under common ownership as the Senior Advisor Franchise Network (SAFN). Each office is run by advisors who work their own metro area and maintain their own facility research; the network shares operating standards, the same no-cost-to-families model, and the same editorial policy on what we will and will not publish about a community.
We disclose this because families deserve to know who they are talking to. If you are helping a parent compare options in more than one city, an advisor here can hand you directly to the office that covers that metro.
Other offices in the network include:
