A common problem for clients and family caregivers is finding help that matches their needs for time, hours per week and pay. Then, the process starts all over again when there is a life event for the helper or for the aging adult.
Befitting is positioned to seed and support employee-owned cooperatives of caregivers and other in-home helpers and professionals. Employee-Owners deliver the services directly to you and, because they are the boss, they are totally accountable for their success in providing you what you want and need. For consumers there is more flexible and reliable scheduling and better coordination between say the caregiver in the morning and the person on shift afterward. |

These reviews are kept private and confidential. After a significant number of reviews are received for any given resource, Befitting will discuss the results with the contact and seek ways to support, improve, enhance or expand their offerings.
