Caregiver Analysis: Finding Clients The Care Support They Need

Individuals with special care needs face unique challenges that require complex solutions to ensure the highest possible level of care and quality of life. Paid caregivers play a vital role in solving these challenges, but hiring and managing this support team can be a daunting task for clients, their families and their advisors.

Challenges Hiring Paid Caregivers

• What type of caregiver is right for the unique needs?
• Do they have the skills required to meet the needs?
• Can I hire a friend or family member as a caregiver?
• How much support is needed establishing the schedule?
• What is the appropriate care pay rate in the community?
• What is the best way to pay caregivers?
• What happens if they don’t show up?
• Can we trust the caregiver?

National Care Advisors is here to help! Our team of experienced Nurse Consultants can provide a Caregiver Analysis to help individuals, their families and advisors analyze the unique needs of the client, determine the appropriate level of care needed and develop a comprehensive caregiver plan to ensure care and quality of life needs are met.
