Proper identification of need is determined at the outset. This highly confidential personal assessment visit includes the individual and often members of the family and appropriate medical team. Together, they determine the initial plan of care.
We match the most appropriate caregiver. Based on the individual's needs and input from the family, the most appropriate caregiver is identified and matched from the Reliable Caregivers team.
Thorough training makes a difference. The Care Manager oversees the placement and training of the caregiver so they understand any special needs that may be required. Caregivers receive ongoing training to sharpen their skills.
