Senior Care Insurance

We specialize in property, general liability, and professional liability insurance for assisted living,nursing homes, and retirement communities.

Our customers range in size from small facilities to multi-state chains. We also have insurance programs for independent owner/operators and management companies.

In the nursing home industry, insurance premiums have risen sharply in the past few years. At the same time, the coverage being offered by insurers is much more limited. We have found that many facilities have been financially hurt by their insurance premiums rising 50%, 100%, 200%, or even 400%. We have taken a very aggressive approach in trying to stabilize or lower premiums, while enhancing coverage. Our expertise comes in having a thorough knowledge of the marketplace, which helps to match each insured with an appropriate insurer.

We are licensed in most states and insure approximately 100 assisted living, nursing homes, and retirement communities throughout the country.

Get a Quote

The quote process for many assisted living, nursing homes, and retirement communities can be very long and require a lot of information. It seems almost every insurance company needs their own insurance application completed, along with a vast array of documents in order to get a quote.

We have simplified the process for most clients. We are able to receive quotes from most insurers with a completed Excel spreadsheet. If you are interested in an quote, please contact Jeff Slater at jeff@slaterinsurance.com or (503)624-0466 ext. 203.
