We run a national background check, confirm previous work history, check references, perform a Driver's Record check (annually), and ensure that they are eligible for employment.

Business owners insurance protects the consumer and employees are insured under a Non-Subscribers insurance for work related injuries. A Registered Nurse conducts an in-depth orientation which includes written testing and skills competency with each new employee and annually thereafter.
Often our loved ones do not let us know when they need help out of fear of giving up their independence. However, having a caregiver present in the home does not take away their independence, but rather allows them to maintain it. Below are a few things to consider when deciding if home care is right for your loved one
Support system - Are there family members living nearby who are able to check on them regularly?
Health -
- Is their strength and coordination deteriorating?
- Do they have a history of falls?
- Are they able to bathe themselves?
- Has their personal hygiene declined?
- Are they mentally alert?
Household -
- Is their house being kept up?
- Are they still able to pay their bills on their own?
- Are there stacks of unopened mail?
- Are there groceries in the house and are they able to cook meals?
If you have questions on whether or not at-home care is right for your loved one, consider asking their doctor. Their doctor will be able to tell you if there have been changes to be concerned about and can suggest appropriate actions to take.
To ensure safe home care, all caregivers are supervised through unannounced client home visits by a Registered Nurse at least every 90 days, or as changes in their health care or living environment dictates.
Yes, our goal is to maintain continuity of care with all of our home care clients. We take into consideration the number or hours and days you are requesting service and schedule the caregivers accordingly.
Yes, we have a Registered Nurse Care Manager on-call 24 hours a day for our clients. Whatever your question or concern, there is always someone to help who is just a phone call away.
At C&S our caregivers go through extensive competency testing before touching their first client. Competency evaluation is ongoing and includes orientation to each individual client’s care needs. We recognize that each of our home clients is unique with specific preferences. Caregivers are instructed on how to precisely care for each client and we also ensure that home care clients and caregivers are matched appropriately. Upon hire, all caregivers undergo an in- depth orientation which is overseen by a Registered Nurse. Care giving instruction and education is ongoing through in-services and testing. If a client requires specific acute care (Foleys, G-tube, etc.), each assigned caregiver is given specialized instruction to ensure competency.
All caregivers assigned to a specific client have been thoroughly screened by our agency. We take great pride in matching the appropriate person with each of our home health care clients, based on personality, client preferences and needs. However, in the cases where the home care client or family would like to meet with the caregiver before care begins, we do everything we can to make it happen.
There are several reasons to turn to C&S rather than hire a caregiver independently:
- Caregivers go through hours of extensive care instruction for individual home health clients to ensure the safety and comfort of the client.
- Each caregiver must pass a complete background check, driver record check, Nurse Aide and Misconduct registry check and is insured through the agency.
- Caregivers are supervised and supported by a Registered Nurse 24/7.
- Having an agency provides you with peace of mind. When a caregiver cannot cover a shift the agency is responsible for providing a relief caregiver. YOU are not responsible for finding a replacement.
- The agency is responsible for payroll taxes so YOU are not the employer.
- The agency has insurance to cover job related injuries.
From our family to yours, may your journey through caregiving bring peace and memories that are positive and enduring.
