Our Caregivers

Trusted, Compassionate Care: How We Select and Train Our Caregivers

At Always Family, we recognize that choosing a caregiver for your loved one is a deeply personal and important decision. That’s why we have developed a rigorous caregiver screening and training process to ensure our team members exceed industry standards in both skill and compassion.

Caregiver Screening: Selecting the Best for Your Loved One

Our hiring process is meticulous and selective, focusing not only on experience but also on the genuine dedication and empathy required for exceptional senior care.

Experience You Can Trust

Our caregivers are supervised by experienced registered nurses who ensure the highest standards of care for every client. These nurses provide ongoing training, real-time guidance, and regular performance evaluations to support and enhance our caregivers’ skills. Through routine check-ins, unexpected visits, and detailed care plan reviews, our nursing team guarantees that every caregiver delivers safe, compassionate, and professional in-home care.

Extensive Background Checks

Your loved one’s safety is our top priority. That’s why we conduct comprehensive background checks, including:

• Employee Misconduct Registry review
• Texas OIG site verification
• Texas Sex Offender Registry screening

By implementing these thorough checks, we ensure trust and security in every home we serve.

Verified References for Reliability

We personally verify at least two references—one of which must be professional—to confirm that each caregiver is both dependable and highly recommended by former employers or associates.

Certified & Credentialed for Safety

All caregivers must have:

• A valid driver’s license and personal car insurance
• CPR certification for emergency preparedness

These requirements reflect our unwavering commitment to accountability and responsibility in caregiving.

Compassion First: The ‘Grandma Guarantee’

Beyond skills and credentials, we seek caregivers with a true servant’s heart. Our unique Grandma Guarantee ensures that every caregiver on our team is motivated by genuine care, not just a paycheck.

Caregiver Training: Excellence Beyond Hiring

Once selected, our caregivers undergo extensive training to provide the best possible care for your loved one.

Intensive Initial Training

All new caregivers complete an orientation course. This curriculum covers:

• HIPAA regulations
• Elder abuse prevention
• Universal precautions & infection control
• ADLs: Feeding, bathing, toileting, and more

Ongoing Skill Development

To ensure our caregivers stay prepared, we provide:

• Up-to-date resources covering specialized care topics
• Personalized coaching from registered nurses when additional training is required

Real-Time Hands-On Training

If a caregiver needs extra guidance, our on-staff registered nurses provide in-person, on-the-job training, ensuring the highest level of care for every senior.

Commitment to Continuous Improvement

Our dedication to excellence doesn’t stop at hiring and training. We actively monitor and refine our care approach to uphold the highest standards.

• Customized Care Plans created by our registered nurses to meet individual client needs
• Routine Care Reviews with family check-ins and unexpected RN visits
• Ongoing Education to keep caregivers updated on best practices

When you choose Always Family, you’re choosing more than just a caregiver—you’re choosing a trusted, highly trained professional who is dedicated to the well-being, comfort, and safety of your loved one.
