In-Home Care Services

How does CareLinx work?

CareLinx is an online platform that helps connect families with professional, non-medical caregivers in their area. CareLinx provides “technology with a human touch” -- families can access an online portal to view caregivers, message with them, hire them, and create individualized tasks for them to assist in the home. If you do not feel comfortable using technology, CareLinx provides a dedicated toll-free number to be connected with a CareLinx Care Advisor who can assist by phone. Your CareLinx Care advisor will also be coordinating your benefit selection including your choice of one of the following services: In-Home Personal Care, Home Modification, or Pest Control. Your CareLinx care advisor will assist with scheduling and obtaining services.

What types of home care services do caregivers normally provide?

Caregivers can assist with a range of activities of daily living and non-medical support -- mobility, bathing, grooming, exercise, transportation, meal preparation, companionship, and more. Caregivers can also provide limited assistance with your medications by providing reminders and/or taking you to pick up medications.  However, caregivers are not authorized to administer or dispense medication.

Are caregivers licensed and how are they screened?

CareLinx caregivers come from a wide range of professionals including retired registered nurses. Some caregivers will be certified nursing assistants or home health aides, but it is not required to be a caregiver. CareLinx does extensive background screening and offers continuing education for its caregivers to ensure the best quality of care. Our Care Advisors will work with you to match them with a caregiver who has the experience that meets their individual needs.

How soon after I enroll will caregiving services start?

Can I message and schedule interviews with caregivers without CareLinx’s assistance?

If you do not want to interview and would rather have a caregiver matched with them on their behalf, your Care Advisor can assist by selecting a caregiver in your area who best fits your care needs.

Yes, CareLinx can directly accommodate any Spanish-speaking clients currently. Care Advisors also have access to a translation service via phone with representatives who can translate for most languages.
