Every rate includes the parts you can’t see
An hourly rate from an agency buys more than the hours. Here’s what’s inside ours — and why it costs more than hiring a caregiver off a classifieds site.
Scheduling & backup
If your caregiver is sick, we staff the shift — you never wake up to a no-show and a scramble.
Supervision
A care manager builds the plan, checks in at home, and adjusts as needs change. You always have one person to call.
Insurance & payroll
Our caregivers are employees — insured, bonded, background-checked, with taxes handled. Nothing lands on you.
No contracts
Change the schedule, pause, or stop anytime. Care should earn its keep every single week.
Honest answers about cost
Why do agencies hide their prices — and you don't?
Most agencies want your phone number before they'll say a number. We'd rather you arrive knowing the range, so the first call is about your mom, not a sales script.
What makes the rate vary?
Level of care and schedule. Companion visits sit near the lower end; hands-on personal care, overnights, and short shifts sit higher. After a free assessment we quote one flat rate in writing, with no obligation to accept it.
Is there a minimum?
Yes — we set a visit minimum so a caregiver can do real good rather than rush in and out. We'll confirm it at your free assessment.
Does insurance or Medicaid pay for any of this?
Often, yes — long-term care insurance, VA benefits, and Medicaid programs all pay for home care for families who qualify. We help with all three.
Worried about affording care? Many families pay less than they fear — Medicaid programs, VA benefits, and long-term care insurance all help.
