A sample visit
Every visit follows your loved one’s care plan, and every task is logged in our app as it happens, with GPS check-in and check-out. Here’s how a typical visit can look.
Better-paid caregivers. More consistent care.
Home care has a turnover problem. When caregivers are underpaid they move on, and families keep starting over with someone new. Keep Safe Care was built to change that.
That’s our 2/3 Rule®. Caregivers earn two-thirds of what you pay for care, so good caregivers stay, and your loved one sees familiar faces week after week.
No contracts, no minimums
Book as little as one hour a week and adjust the schedule as needs change, with no long-term commitment.
A sliding fee scale
The more hours you need each week, the lower your hourly rate. Our own technology keeps overhead down, and we pass the savings on.
Insured and bonded
Every Keep Safe Care caregiver is insured and bonded, for your family’s protection and theirs.
Visits you can see
Caregivers check in and out with GPS, and tasks, photos and messages are tracked in our app in real time, so your family knows how every visit went.
