About CareScout

Join us on a mission to simplify and dignify the aging experience. We are the children, siblings, neighbors, and friends of those navigating the fragmented and confusing system of long-term care.

We’re creating a new experience for care seekers and their families, bringing together long-term care options, non-healthcare resources, education, and human support into one place. We work hard, we have fun, we care about each other, and we share the mission. If this sounds like a place where you could thrive, join us!
