The caregiver will also need to be equipped with full PPE clothing (at an additional cost).
AGENCY VS PRIVATE
Whilst working with an agency is pricier than hiring a person in private capacity, it ensures the following :
NO ADMIN: An office care agent manages all the administration of scheduling, payments, communication, backup organisation and all the other occurrences that can happen. Also due to a team being in place, there is never an issue when a staff member is sick or on leave.
NO TIE-IN to 1 person and potential complacency: we have a “no questions asked” exchange policy at any time if desired. Also our approach to team work (staffing min. 2 people per client) usually solves the potential challenge.
INSURANCE: CareChamp has a Medical Malpractice Insurance in place.
Additionally it might not even be pricier than hiring Private - IF you can take advantage of claiming up to 1/3 of care costs back from SARS. Read more about this HERE.
Companion Champs
Our Companion Champs are either retired from a professional career—usually in the healthcare sector—or working part-time and looking for ways to add value to other people’s lives. Companion Champs are able to assist with being a friend to and motivating the client, as well as overseeing the household. Plus, because all of our companions have their own transport, they’re able to assist with driving the client—to outings, daily activities, and doctor’s visits.
Registered Nurses
Our registered nurses are involved in home care assessments, creating care plans and onboarding caregivers. An initial home nurse assessment—conducted by one of our registered nurses—helps us to put together a care plan by better understanding your requirements. It also does wonders for orientating the caregiver and client. Our RNs also are available for followup visits as well as ad-hoc nursing procedures required.
We also offer “Family Caregiver Training” conducted by one of our RNs with the aim to assist family members be family caregivers. Learn more about the roles our RNs play in different settings.
