Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

Q: Who needs in-home care?

People who need additional help with their daily living activities and want to stay at home rather than be institutionalized or live with relatives. In other cases, it could be people whose family caregiver needs a respite or time off from their care giving responsibilities.

Q: How much does the service cost?

We bill on an hourly basis most of the time. The hours required to properly care for your loved one will be determined by you after the initial assessment interview. Please contact us to learn more about our pricing.

Q: How does in-home care cost compare to assisted-living or nursing homes?

Most of the time, our services will cost less than those of assisted-living facilities or nursing homes. We can tailor a schedule specifically to meet the needs of our clients – so you are only paying for what you need.

Q: Do you provide care in facilities also?

Yes. We can provide our caregivers to attend to your loved-one in hospitals, assisted living facilities, nursing homes, long-term rehabilitation facilities and other places.

Q: How do you select your caregivers?

All of our caregivers are carefully interviewed and screened. Please see our Caregiver page for more detailed information.

Q: How long does it take to get a caregiver?

That depends on your schedule. We will meet with you for an initial interview to assess your needs. After we fully understand what you are looking for, we can place a caregiver within a very short period of time. We are continuously interviewing, qualifying, and training caregivers to be sure we can meet your particular needs. Please see Our Process page or watch our tutorial for a step-by-step overview.

Q: What if my caregiver is sick or goes on vacation?

We have a continuous supply of excellent, caring caregivers that are ready on a moment's notice in case of sickness or emergency. We certainly receive advanced notice of any vacation requests, so that is not usually an issue.

Q: Can I meet the caregiver in advance?

Of course. Part of our service is being able to match the right caregiver with the personality of your loved one. We cover this topic during the initial interview so we can get a head start on selecting the right caregiver. We are very good at building relationships!
