Why Families Choose Clara Vita
Personally Vetted Communities
We tour every community ourselves before recommending it. You'll never be sent somewhere we wouldn't send our own family.

We represent you — not the community. Our loyalty is to your family's best outcome, always.
Concierge Guidance
From the first call to move-in day, we walk alongside you every step of the way with expert, compassionate support.
Always Free to Families
Our placement service costs families nothing. We are compensated by the communities, never by you.
Nurse-Owned & Operated
Founded and led by a licensed nurse, Clara Vita brings clinical expertise to every placement — so your family gets guidance rooted in real medical knowledge, not just sales.
A Word From Our Founder
Every family I work with reminds me why I do this. Finding the right community isn't just a placement — it's giving someone their dignity, their safety, and their joy back.

A Family's Story
Kristin with ClaraVita is an absolute angel. I had to move my 84 year old father with dementia and slight autism from Georgia to Florida as my husband needed to be in Florida for his job. Daunting to say the least when trying to do it from another state. Not only did Kristin find a lovely facility with a spectacular staff to meet my father's needs, but was available to me throughout the process — and continues to be available and follows up with me and also checks on my dad. She has just been a blessing to me and my family. I feel like I've known her forever from the beginning and that I'm chatting with a friend who really cares. You absolutely could not do better than going with ClaraVita.
