I check thoroughly into the backgrounds of all those care providers registered with my service. I check their references and perform DMV and finger-print checks as well. I refuse to send out anyone about whom I have any doubts regarding their excellent qualifications. Different credentials or experience are needed in different situations. I strive to keep a diversified list of individuals to fit all needs of my clients.
Care providers can perform many different funtions as required by the needs of the client.
Some clients only need someone to come in a couple of times a week to assist with cooking, cleaning, shopping, or going to appointments. Some clients may need assistance in bathing or going for a walk on a regular basis. Some clients with poor eye sight might require a care provider to help organize their home so that they can find their belongings and navigate their home more easily. Some may need more extensive medical or physical monitoring and attention. Some may need 24 hour care.
