All references, including national criminal background checks, are verified through a third party verification system. In addition to the national criminal background checks, all applicants are required to go through a drug screening.

  • Our goal is to establish a long-term match between client and caregiver, and to keep the same caregivers with a client as long as the client is satisfied. This is based upon our experience that developing a strong rapport and trust with your caregivers is a vital component to a successful home care experience.
  • All caregivers are required to call the office in the event of an emergency which prevents them from getting to work. We will make every effort to find a qualified replacement in a timely manner.

  • No. You will be invoiced each week for the services rendered during the previous week. HiHomeCare’s caregivers are all employees of the company, and therefore, you do not have to pay them directly. Additionally, you will never be asked or required to pay an additional fee to the employees.
  • HiHomeCare will customize a plan of care that is unique to every client, and suitable to your budget. There are several factors that go into determining the cost: (i) the level of service required (RN, HHA, etc.); (ii) the number of hours of care you receive; and (iii) in which part of the state you live. If you would like to learn the exact rates for the services you need, please contact our office. An Intake Specialist will review your needs, recommend the proper level of care and provide you with the cost for required services.
  • HiHomeCare is extremely flexible with our service, and we understand that the care situation can change. We can adjust employees’ schedules on short notice, and we do not have any long term service contract commitments.
