Dayton Senior AdvisorWho is behind Dayton Senior Advisor?
Dayton Senior Advisor is a privately owned referral and guidance service for older adults and families in Montgomery, Greene, Miami, Clark, Darke and Preble counties; it is not connected to ODH, the Ohio Department of Aging, the Area Agency on Aging or any care provider, and it owns no facilities.
The reference pages start from primary documents: Ohio's residential care rules, Ohio Medicaid's 2026 eligibility letters and ODH's license roster for every building in Montgomery, Greene, Miami, Clark, Darke and Preble counties. The advisory side is a conversation: tell us how your mother or father spends a normal day, what has changed and what the budget allows, and we narrow the roster to a handful of licensed places worth touring.
How is Dayton Senior Advisor paid, and why should that matter to you?
Families pay nothing; our income is a referral fee that participating communities pay once a resident we introduced has moved in.
That arrangement could tempt any referral service to steer people toward paying partners, so we publish the whole state roster instead of a curated list. Partner or not, every licensed RCF and nursing home in our six counties gets the same page, with its ODH citations, Ohio survey scores and CMS figures in plain view. If one of our advisors recommends a building, ask for the reasons, and check them against those public numbers.
What does the directory include, and what does it leave out?
It includes every active residential care facility, nursing home, home health and hospice license on ODH's roster for the six counties, with state IDs, bed counts, Alzheimer's service, ODH survey history, resident satisfaction scores and CMS ratings.
Reviews, marketing claims and home-made scores are left out on purpose. Some numbers families want simply are not public, including a Dayton price median and any memory care median; where that is so we say it and explain how to get the figure directly.
