Why Is Hiring Visiting Angels Better Than a Private Caregiver?

While hiring a private caregiver might seem like it would be efficient, the process can actually be quite complicated. When you hire a caregiver directly, you will be responsible for paying taxes, obtaining liability insurance, and handling background checks. In addition, you will have to manage the caregiver and address any performance issues or training needs.

When you work with Visiting Angels, we handle everything, so you don’t have to worry about finding a backup caregiver if yours calls in sick or worker’s compensation. You also have reliable caregiver backup.
