Why Caring Senior Service

After 1–2 months of successful performance, Lead Caregivers may become eligible for guaranteed weekly hours (20–32 hours per week) in place of the weekly standby stipend. Guaranteed hours are based on performance, reliability, leadership abilities, and overall job proficiency.
