|
Caregiver Backup for emergencies |
We are ready and able to fill the need with one phone call. |
None. Home care backup is extra stress to your family. |
|
|
Bonding, Liability & Workers Comp. Insurance |
Our staff are bonded and insured, giving you peace of mind that if the caregiver ever hurts themselves in your home they would never sue your home owners insurance policy. |
Usually none. It's your responsibility to investigate any insurance held by these individuals. Private individuals can sue your home owners insurance policy if injured on the job. |
|
|
Quality Control & Supervision of Care Staff |
•All cases are carefully monitored and supervised by our Geriatric Case Managers and our management team. •Random visits made regularly. •Family members kept informed on a regular basis |
These individuals are completely independent and lack formal supervision. |

We provide continual and mandatory in-service caregiver training. |
These individuals may or may not continue to build upon their knowledge and skills. |
|
|
Payroll, Taxes & the IRS |
We assume the responsibility. |
You are responsible for reporting and remitting state, federal and FICA taxes to the proper tax authorities. |
|
|
Criminal Background and Reference Checks |
Our employees are carefully screened at the time of hire with several layers of through background checks. Approximately 90% of applicants do not meet our standards. |
It is your responsibility to check the background of the individual. |
|
|
Flexibility of Care Services |
Your home care service requirements will rarely stay the same. When the skill level or amount of care you require increases or decreases, we can accommodate your needs. |
Skills are fixed to the particular individual, and you pay for the sill they can perform rather than the skills you need. |
|
|
Experience |
Our caregivers have been delivering quality home care to satisfied clients for an average of over seven years. |
Variable. |

|
General Availability |
We can provide home care services to you and your family 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Your caregiver is always available, even on weekends and holidays. |
One person means limited days and hours. You are responsible for staffing a replacement for sudden sickness, time off, emergencies and vacations. Employment transitions mean that you start the entire process all over again. |
