You can find countless home care professionals in your area and trying to compare them all can be confusing. You want the best care for your loved one and Interim HealthCare offers the service and professionalism you need.
Why Choose a Home Care Agency Over an Independent Contractor?
Individuals offering home care services may seem like a more economical option than agencies, but you don't get the same level of service from an individual that you get from a home care agency.
Fees charged by an independent contractor don't cover everything included in fees from home health agencies. You will be the caregiver's employer so will have to battle with confusing payroll tax laws. It is likely the person has not had a criminal background check so you will have to foot the bill for that. You also face the potential for serious liability costs of the caregiver is injured in your home.
The Interim HealthCare home care agency takes care of taxes, background checks and liability issues so you don't have to, and we provide other benefits as well. We provide a comprehensive range of services no single caregiver can match. Our team of compassionate professionals is ready to step in if your primary caregiver gets sick, so you know you are covered in any situation.
Interim's Commitment to Professionalism
Whether our clients need simple companionship or licensed home nursing services, when you work with the Interim HealthCare home care agency you know you are getting an experienced caregiver. We verify their training, license and experience as well as provide comprehensive background checks to ensure none of our employees are in a position to exploit or abuse our clients.
Our caregivers are available any time of the day or night. If you have need round-the-clock care or have an emergency in the middle of the night, our home care agency is there for you. If your loved one's needs change, we can provide additional caregivers as needed including therapists and nurses. All of our caregivers have backups so you receive continuous care even if your primary caregiver gets sick or needs time off.
We Take Your Care Personally
We want our clients to like our caregivers. Studies have demonstrated the importance of personal compatibility between a patient and a caregiver. When you feel comfortable with our care, you relax and your body gets better faster. Personality matching is an important part of caregiver selection.
Once you contact our home care agency, we send out someone to evaluate the client to determine what services are necessary. We are also getting a feel for the client's personality so we can find the best match. If you don't like the caregiver we provide, ask for another. Our feelings won't be hurt. The right caregiver for one person might not be the right one for another, and we want to find the perfect candidate for you.
