How families use WatchForMom

Real ways adult children stay informed

"I can't visit Mom every week since I live two hours away. WatchForMom alerts me when her facility's records change, so I stay informed even from a distance."

"When Dad moved into a nursing home, I didn't know how to monitor his facility. Now I receive free alerts automatically instead of navigating government websites."

"I follow both of my parents' facilities. When ratings change or new inspections are published, I know immediately. It's peace of mind I didn't have before."

Common questions

Is WatchForMom really free?

Yes, completely free. We don't require credit cards, subscriptions, or accounts. Just your email address to send alerts when official records change.

What does "follow a facility" mean?

Following a facility means you'll receive email alerts whenever CMS publishes new ratings, inspections, staffing data, ownership changes, or abuse records for that nursing home.

Where does the data come from?

All data comes directly from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) - the same federal agency that runs Medicare.gov. We monitor for updates and alert you when something changes.

How often will I receive alerts?

Only when something actually changes. CMS typically updates nursing home data monthly, so most families receive 1-2 alerts per month per facility. You can unfollow at any time.
