“"I wanted to find a role with an agency that cared about me as well as the clients. I heard about Care For You from a friend who said it was the best agency she had ever worked for. I was sceptical but after making contact and having an interview I was convinced. I now have a full time role as a care team member and I don’t have to worry about my hours or traveling far and wide – I work with 2 clients nearby to home. I like that Care For You meets with the clients and us weekly in their homes and goes with the caregiver the first visit to introduce them. I also like that if I need to sound off or have a problem, I call Care For You and am treated with respect and patience. I feel comfortable giving them input and discussing issues."” Barbara Care Team Member
