§ 06 · Common Questions

What families ask first.

Where does Utah memory care inspection data come from?

Primary sources: the Utah Dept. of Health & Human Services Division of Licensing and Background Checks (DLBC), which regulates Assisted Living Facilities (Type I and Type II) under Utah Admin. Code R432-270. Inspection findings and complaint outcomes are published publicly via the Utah CCL portal at ccl.utah.gov. StarlynnCare also overlays CMS inspection data for nursing facilities.

What is the difference between a Type I and Type II Assisted Living Facility in Utah?

Type I ALFs provide services to residents who need assistance with activities of daily living but who are ambulatory or able to self-transfer. Type II ALFs serve residents who are non-ambulatory or who require physical assistance with transfers and may need a higher level of personal care — including many residents with moderate-to-advanced dementia.

Do you accept payments from facilities or operators?

No. StarlynnCare receives no referral commissions, lead fees, or paid placement from any operator. Rankings are derived solely from state inspection records and verified family reviews.

How often is Utah data updated?

After each ingest run from DLBC licensing records and the Utah CCL public API. Source dates appear on each facility profile.

Can a facility correct or respond to information on its profile?

Yes. Every profile includes a verified-operator response field, edited by us only for length. We do not remove DLBC findings at operator request.
