. Registered Nurses
. Licensed Practical Nurses
. Certified Nursing Assistants
Nursing Referral Service personally interviews each applicant to ensure that only the best caregivers are registered. They verify each applicant's state licenses, certificates, and training. They scrutinize work experience and references. Nursing Referral Service also verifies the identity and employment eligibility of each applicant, in addition to requiring a clean criminal background check. They require that each applicant has at least one year of experience and demonstrates a high standard of professional competence before registering with the company.
The result is a registry of the top caregivers in the area. Each caregiver is a trained, experienced person genuinely concerned about providing quality care to individual clients. Caregivers are dedicated to providing one-on-one care in a private duty setting, whether at home, in a nursing home, or in a hospital.
Dedication
You are an individual with specific needs and concerns. The experienced staff at Nursing Referral Service is proficient at tailoring a plan just for you. Understanding your situation is step one to meeting your special requirements. To fit your schedule needs, caregivers are available to work on an hourly or daily live-in basis. Short-term and long-term arrangements are welcome, so whether you need only 4 hours of care or full 24-hour coverage, you can count on Nursing Referral Service to find the perfect caregiver.
Once a plan of care has been determined, the process of selecting the most appropriate caregiver begins immediately. To ensure that your expectations are met, your staffing coordinator maintains contact with the patient, the designated point of contact, and the caregiver(s) on a regular basis.
Reliability
After the perfect caregiver has been identified and an appropriate schedule is in place, Nursing Referral Service never leaves your side. Staffing coordinators are available 24 hours every day of the year to assist you with any situation that might arise, including:
. Schedule change
. Additional coverage
. Cancellation
. Caregiver replacement
The health of someone you love is far too important to trust to just anyone. It is difficult to find a person with the qualifications, experience, and compassion needed in a caregiver working in your home. Nursing Referral Service is available to help by providing care you can trust.
