When you engage, retain, hire, contract a medical caregiver, medical home care service provider, you want to have as close to seamless coverage as possible - - - without fatiguing the caregivers; and with caregivers that have excellent para or professional medical care skills and aptitude AND then you want compassionate care and then if you are really lucky, you want to see a collaborative team effort that scales from shift-to-shift across the entire group of caregivers, especially when you are engaging an around-the-clock initiative.
Often, when it comes time to augment home care giving from family member(s), we look at a single practitioner, we know of or a Care.com self-employed person - which may be sufficient for few hours a day for few days per week. However, real care, even full days over the course of a 7 day week cannot be covered by 1 or even 3 people without risk of coverage gaps due to illness, family emergencies, weather, etc...so, you find out the hard way OR under stress, duress that you need a village to carry out a longer term, 24/7 coverage plan with talented, compassionate professionals that take pride in overlapping time to collaborate and provide seamless care, that can continue through home care, in-room assistance during stressful hospitalizations for patients AND THIS IS WHAT THE KEY DOES NOW....keeps the focus on meaningful medical outcomes every shift, every day and the cross talk and communications throughout the team is humbling...augmenting your care plan with private healthcare during the most stressful times of any patients, loved-ones, the extended families lives cannot be quantified of its value and The Key demonstrates this to me on every shift, every caregiver and even the administrators and management.
The people are The Key! Their process works! The patient's benefits are comfort, smoothing out the bumps, the harsh truths of urgent medical care, the fear . . . The Key helps smooth all of these things out...at home, in transport, in-hospital.
I would say you cannot put a price on that, but i think we all know they can and do, so . . . . I'd rather say, if you do have some money, this is what it is for!
I have had the pleasure of working side by side with The Key for the last 7 months, and I am beyond impressed with the level of care and professionalism they provide. From day one, their team has been attentive, compassionate, and dedicated to meeting the needs of their clients. They go above and beyond in every aspect, whether it’s providing personalized care plans, ensuring comfort, or being responsive to any concerns. Their commitment to excellence shines through in everything they do. I am truly amazed by the quality of service, and I cannot recommend them highly enough!
