Our Caregivers & Approach
Are your caregivers qualified?
Yes. Every caregiver goes through extensive interviews and must provide five references. We also complete a background check and a medical evaluation before anyone is considered for employment.
How are you different from large corporate agencies and franchises?
Our owners handle client assessments and ongoing case management personally. That means a more personal, tailored home care experience than you'll find with large corporate agencies and franchises.
How long have you been providing home care?
ElderCare Services has offered professional home care since 2003, with a long track record of serving clients across Central & Coastal Connecticut.
