An important part of planning for home care is deciding how to pay for the services. We first set up an in-home consultation to begin discussing the individual’s care plan to determine what kind of services will be needed. A few things that we use to determine the overall cost would be the length of time we are providing our service on a daily basis, the level of care we are providing and the area/region where the service is provided.

Yes. Our vision is to empower our clients and families to be actively involved in the total care process which is why we encourage your involvement in the decision-making process. We assign the most appropriate caregiver matching the skill level, location, and personality type with the patient. However, if you are not satisfied we can do our best to accommodate any requests you may have for a change in caregiver.

Most home care services are covered by Insurance or Government Programs.

We carefully assess the patient and family situation right from the start so we can assign the appropriate caregiver to the client. To help build a level of trust, the same caregiver will be assigned for a particular home throughout the time of care, unless otherwise noted. We want to create a relationship with our patients and family so we can provide the most efficient and effective level of care possible.

We ensure that all caregivers are trained appropriately before taking on an assigned case. We provide a comprehensive training which is one of our top priorities. All caregivers are required to go through an ongoing competency evaluation that includes a problem solving session to determine the caregiver’s response to challenging situations. New caregivers are provided with a training program which includes extensive testing and pediatric classes.
