The Partnership

What AdvaCare takes off your plate

Fast placement coordination

Referrals are acknowledged the same business day. For discharge-pending cases, we confirm acuity acceptance and availability in real time and return a short list of options that will actually take the patient — not a directory printout.

Statewide network

Assisted living, licensed and residential care homes, memory care, and independent living across Maricopa, Pima, Pinal, and Yavapai counties and into northern and rural Arizona — including small homes that never appear on national listing sites.

Communication that keeps up with your day

One named navigator, direct phone and email, and written summaries you can paste into the chart. No call trees, no waiting for a regional office to respond.

Clinical understanding

We speak in ADLs, transfer status, two-person assist, oxygen, wound stage, behaviors, elopement risk, dialysis schedules, and medication management — then match to a license level and staffing pattern that can genuinely support it.

Family education

We take the long conversations off your plate: level-of-care differences, realistic cost expectations, ALTCS timelines, tour preparation, and sibling alignment — so families arrive at a decision instead of stalling at discharge.

No cost to families

Our navigation is free to patients, families, and referral sources. Families receive advocacy and options, never a sales pitch tied to a single provider.

Professional follow-up

We close the loop: options presented, tours completed, placement outcome, and move-in date reported back to you — plus a post-move check to reduce avoidable readmission risk.

Referral Workflow

From referral to move-in, without the follow-up burden falling on you

  1. 01

    Send the referral

    Use the form below or call us directly. Initials and a clinical summary are enough to start.

  2. 02

    Same-day acknowledgment

    A named navigator confirms receipt, clarifies acuity and payment source, and connects with the family.

  3. 03

    Vetted options confirmed

    We verify license level, staffing, acuity acceptance, and availability before presenting anything to the family.

  4. 04

    Tours and decision support

    We accompany the family, ask the clinical questions, and help them compare honestly.

  5. 05

    Move-in and reporting back

    We coordinate the move, confirm services are in place, and report the outcome to you.

Building a standing referral relationship? We provide in-service education for case management and social work teams, printed referral cards, and a single point of contact for your department. Contact us to arrange an in-service.

Referral Request

Send a referral to AdvaCare

Complete what you know. A navigator will follow up for anything missing — we would rather start the work than wait for a perfect form.

Please share only the clinical detail needed to identify appropriate options. Use patient initials rather than a full name, and omit identifiers your organization's policy does not permit you to share.
