Our Agency is licensed by the Colorado Department of Health to provide personal care services. Our caregivers provide both personal and non-personal care.
Our caregivers are available from 2 hours a week to 24 hours per day. We also provide reasonable night rates. We are on call 24/7.
Western Slope In-Home Care provides care and support to Medicaid clients through the State of Colorado’s Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Waiver Programs for adults. We also accept long-term care insurance and Private Pay.
Our caregivers do not perform medical services. However, we partner with and complement the services of home health and hospice agencies by performing the services they typically do not provide. Also, our services are significantly less expensive which allows for a more affordable long-term presence in the home.
We hire only experienced caregivers and put them through a rigorous investigation process before they enter a home. This includes a 7- year local, state, and federal criminal background check, 12 component drug screen, 2 personal interviews, personal and business reference checks, skills test, and we provide mandatory training per Colorado state code requirements. We understand that you can’t be too careful when you invite someone into your home. We also have continued training throughout the year, on different subjects pertaining to the elderly care, and safety precautions. Placing caregivers in a home can also be a match-making game, it is an objective for Western Slope In-Home Care to make sure clients can pick and choose the caregivers that are recommended.
