Problem

After a parent in their 80s receives a confirmed long-term care grade, adult children aged 50-58 who have decided on facility admission face a problem: the National Health Insurance Service's 'Find Long-Term Care Facility' tool only filters by address and care grade. Critical information—whether night nurses are on-site, availability of dementia-specific programs, detailed out-of-pocket costs, and wait times—requires calling each facility directly. On average, families call 5-8 facilities and visit 3-4, taking 2-3 weeks, during which they must continue providing unpaid caregiving.

Solution

Users input their parent's care grade, conditions, and preferred residential area. The tool lists matching care facilities and auto-generates a must-ask checklist for each (night staffing, meal plans, programs, actual costs, contract considerations). It provides a facility comparison table for on-site visits, and when users record post-visit evaluations, it calculates a final recommendation ranking.

Target: Ages 50-58, parent aged 80+ with confirmed long-term care grade 1-3, immediately after deciding on facility admission, in the first week of facility search
