--000000000000a8b05005e4ac148f Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Hello Everyone, Please find some competitor information I gathered while looking for assistance for my great aunt: 1)* Home Instead*-- I spoke with Alana (Care Manager) --Minimum for care is 10 hours/week and will do split shifts. If request is for 2 hours then cost is $35/hour + GST, if request is for 3 hours or more then the cost is $30/hour + GST. If transportation and an escort is needed to an appointment, the booking is for a 6 hour slot at $35/hour + GST. Mileage from client's house to appointment would be at a rate of 50 cents/km. Pay caregivers $16.88/hour and In- home Caregiver $17.48/hour. 2)* Comforts of Home*--I spoke with Kimberly (Care Manager)--minimum 3 hour shifts at $27.50/hour. No minimum weekly hours. Mileage is 58 cents/km if transportation is required. When a client signs up for service, they pay a $200 "service deposit" that the client gets back when service is cancelled. They are paying HCAs $16-$18/hour. *Cindy Skulsky, BSc, RN* Home Care Liaison Business Development www.HomeCareAssistanceWinnipeg.ca cell: 204-688-6960 email: *cindy.skulsky@homecareassistance.com * *Champions of Aging Well* --000000000000a8b05005e4ac148f Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello Everyone, Please find some competitor informatio= n=C2=A0I gathered while looking for assistance for my great aunt: 1) Home Instead -- I spoke with Alana (Care Manager) = --Minimum for care is 10 hours/week and will do split shifts.
