Reputation and Experience

Caregiver Screening
The caregiver providing assistance to your loved one plays the most important role in their well-being. It’s essential to choose a provider that prioritizes the quality and qualifications of their caregivers. Search for a home care company that conducts thorough screening and vetting of their caregivers and is selective in who they will work with.
LifeWorx guarantees that all caregivers go through a rigorous screening process to ensure their reliability and expertise. The background checks and certifications are the easy part. LifeWorx also ensures that every caregiver comes with references from the community, speaking directly with the families of their previous clients, as well as an in-person interview with two of our care professionals.
In choosing to work with LifeWorx, you will be presented with bios summarizing each caregiver’s unique skills, experience, references, and personality. From there, you can select caregivers to interview if you prefer, or to simply start working. We pride ourselves in the ability to create the perfect match that will give your family the consistency and continuity of care for the highest quality of life as your loved one ages.
