Why Hire an Elder Care Agency vs. An Independent Caregiver?
Once you've decided to hire an elder caregiving professional, you must choose between hiring through an elder care agency or looking for an individual caregiver. While the latter may seem less expensive, it also forces you to be the employer as much as you are the client. You may have to handle everything from interviews and background checks to insurance, gaps in care, and availability, along with necessary training as medical conditions worsen.
Turning to an elder care agency ensures you're working with a licensed business that employs many screened and trained caregivers. Choosing an agency like Code Blue Care Companion is the most consistent, trustworthy, and reliable elder in-home caregiver option.
