Search Care FacilitiesSLINQ is a transparent senior care placement infrastructure platform connecting families, discharge teams, care facilities, and institutional stakeholders through verified availability, care-fit matching, and a commission-free placement model. The network supports residential care placement across assisted living, memory care, board and care, and independent living while creating clearer visibility into capacity, demand, and placement activity.
Traditional referral models can create misaligned incentives between families, facility economics, and care outcomes. Availability is often fragmented, and market visibility remains limited.
Families and discharge teams often work from partial availability data across disconnected facility networks.
Per-placement referral fees can shape recommendation pathways and place pressure on facility acquisition costs.
Facilities, institutions, and public stakeholders lack a consistent view of placement demand, supply, and access gaps.

Key terms and definitions for families, planners, and providers
An RCFE is a California-licensed residential care facility that provides non-medical care and supervision for elderly residents. RCFEs include assisted living communities, board and care homes, and memory care facilities. They are regulated by the California Department of Social Services (DSS) and must meet minimum standards for staffing, safety, and resident rights. California has over 7,000 licensed RCFEs.
Discharge planning is the process of coordinating a patient's transition from a hospital to the next appropriate level of care — such as a skilled nursing facility, assisted living community, rehabilitation center, or home care. Hospital discharge planners (typically social workers or case managers) assess patient needs, identify suitable facilities, and arrange the transfer. Effective discharge planning reduces hospital readmission rates and improves patient outcomes.
Assisted living provides help with activities of daily living (ADLs) like bathing, dressing, and medication management for seniors who are generally cognitively intact. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living designed specifically for individuals with Alzheimer's disease, dementia, or other cognitive impairments. Memory care facilities offer secured environments, specialized staff training, structured routines, and cognitive therapy programs. Memory care typically costs 20-30% more than standard assisted living.
A skilled nursing facility (SNF) provides 24-hour medical care by licensed nurses under physician supervision. SNFs serve patients who need a higher level of medical care than what assisted living or board and care homes can provide — such as post-surgical recovery, wound care, IV therapy, or ventilator management. When a patient no longer needs that level of care, SNF discharge planners use SLINQ to place them into the right residential care community. In California, SNFs are licensed by the Department of Public Health (CDPH).
Independent living communities (also called senior apartments or retirement communities) are designed for older adults who can live on their own but want a community setting with conveniences like meals, housekeeping, social activities, and transportation. They do not provide personal or medical care, which makes them more affordable than assisted living — and a good fit for seniors who are still active and self-sufficient.
Board and care homes (also called residential care homes) are small, family-style residences that provide room, meals, and personal care for typically 6 or fewer residents. In California, they operate under RCFE licensing. Board and care homes offer a more intimate, home-like setting compared to larger assisted living facilities, often at a lower cost ($2,500-$4,500/month). Many board and care homes in California accept Medi-Cal.
SLINQ is a healthcare technology platform that connects families, hospitals, and care facilities through verified availability data, care-fit matching, and a commission-free placement model. Traditional referral structures can create opaque incentives across the placement journey; SLINQ uses flat facility subscriptions to support clearer economics, broader visibility, and more transparent care access.
Families use SLINQ to compare senior care communities — including assisted living, memory care, board and care, and independent living — with verified availability and greater visibility into the placement process. Search results are designed around care fit and availability, not per-placement referral commissions.
Hospital discharge planners and social workers use SLINQ to coordinate post-acute placement with structured requests, verified facility capability, and documented responses. Our platform supports Epic and other EHR systems via SMART on FHIR while maintaining full HIPAA compliance.
Facility owners use SLINQ to build a predictable placement channel through a flat monthly subscription instead of per-referral commissions, connecting communities with families and discharge teams through verified capacity and care-fit data.
Most senior care directories are static lists updated monthly or quarterly. By the time a family or discharge team contacts a facility, listed availability may be out of date. SLINQ gives facilities a direct way to maintain capacity, pricing, and care capability signals so the placement market becomes more current and easier to evaluate.
Clear placement infrastructure can help hospitals, health systems, payers, and public agencies understand where care access is constrained, where facility capacity exists, and how placement demand is changing over time. That transparency creates value beyond a single search or referral.
