## Research questions

### Does free senior-living guidance mean the care itself is free?

A Place for Mom's US service says its guidance is free to families because participating providers pay referral fees. Providers set their own rates. Distinguish no-cost referral assistance from the cost of the chosen community or home-care service; a referral form is not a care-price quote.

### Does submitting a referral form mean a family has selected a community?

A Place for Mom says families are not obligated to select a recommended service. It also says form submission authorizes contact by phone, text or email, with opt-out options. Suggested practice: distinguish contact authorization from provider selection, admission or a signed home-care agreement.

### How does a public resource locator differ from a paid-provider referral enquiry?

The US ACL says it does not provide local services directly; its Eldercare Locator connects people with resources such as home care, transportation, caregiver training and respite. Suggested practice: distinguish resource connection from provider acceptance or a service booking when defining the conversion behind the offer.
