Alzheimer’s Friendly BusinessSM

AlzheimersFriendlyBusiness.comThis program aims to educate business owners, their managers and staff so that they have the tools to welcome family caregivers who may otherwise be reluctant to take their loved ones into public places.

We love our CAREGiversThese devoted people share a deep passion for delivering top-notch home care to your family. However, when you bring a stranger into your home you want more than someone who’s kind hearted. You are trusting this individual with your loved one’s safety and well-being, and we understand that. Here’s how we strive to make sure each of our CAREGivers exemplifies our values of compassion, trust and expertise.

Ongoing, World-Class TrainingEach of our CAREGivers completes a comprehensive, multi-phased training program before they ever meet or serve a client. They also participate in periodic ongoing training programs as they are developed. Your CAREGiver also may opt to take specialized training modules for advanced levels of caregiving, such as Alzheimer’s care.

Drug ScreeningWe are required to drug screen all of our CAREGivers. We strive to send CAREGivers into your home that we would invite into our own. It’s that simple.

Compatibility MatchingThe seniors we serve aren’t just ”clients” to us. They’re people. So are the CAREGivers we employ. And because personalities interact differently, we take great care to create compatible matches between each client and CAREGiver.

InsuredWe are required to conduct thorough background checks on all of our prospective CAREGivers. Each CAREGiver who enters your home is insured to help protect you against loss. We believe in taking care of the people who take care of your family.
