Accushield credentials everyone that has interactions within multiple ALF’s/SNF’s within our community. There is a cost to this service. As a Caregiver you’re an independent contractor (Self Employed Professional), Griswold Home Care cannot pay the fee directly or reimburse you. If a referred client is in a facility that utilizes the service, the cost can be passed on to the client if mutually agreed upon. You can choose to do so in the form of higher rates or as an additional charge (i.e., like mileage or a food allowance for a Live-In).
- For those clients paying their caregiver directly, we would recommend just adding this to one of the weekly bills (like you would Mileage or a Food Allowance).
- For Ally, you will need to add the fee to one of your clock outs, like you do mileage
