Comprehensive Care Solutions Tailored to Your Family's Needs

At Private Caregiver Solutions, it is our priority to provide exceptional care while maintaining the highest standards of legal and ethical practices.

Payroll

Private Caregiver Solutions recommends the utilization of a professional payroll service when paying your new private live-in caregiver. PCS can assist you in connecting with professional payroll services that are tailored to your specific needs.  

Payroll processing goes beyond issuing paychecks every cycle. It requires knowledge of the appropriate state and federal agencies to contact, taxes to withhold, and calculation of withholdings. When you hire a Payroll Services provider, tax withholdings are calculated, payroll is processed, and employee direct deposits are set up if preferred. The provider also maintains records of all payroll documentation and makes them accessible to the employer.

Tax filing involves preparing and submitting pay period and year-end tax documents, including W2s for employees and Schedule H for federal returns. The payroll company will connect with relevant state and federal agencies and retain records of everything that the employer can access. 

Workers' Compensation Insurance

As an employer of a live-in caregiver, it’s recommended to obtain workers’ compensation insurance. If your employee sustains an injury while on the job and requires short-term or long-term medical care, the costs can be significant. This insurance plan is specifically designed to protect both you and your caregiver, especially since they are residing in your home and working in home healthcare. PCS can put you in contact with workers’ comp insurance providers that will help you to protect your family’s assets prior to an unforeseen injury.

I9

To avoid any issues, it’s crucial to verify that your live-in is authorized to work in the United States. Luckily, all of the candidates sent to you by PCS for interview have completed an I9 with the necessary and current documentation. 

Background & Reference Checks

PCS upholds a strict level of due diligence by conducting comprehensive background checks, cross-checking references, and confirming the validity and standing of licenses (if desired) within the relevant state. We understand the importance of entrusting a caregiver with the well-being of your loved ones, and we are committed to ensuring their safety, comfort, and dignity at all times.

Professional Home Care Consultants

Our team of experienced home care consultants is dedicated to assisting you in finding a compassionate live-in caregiver tailored to your specific needs. We conduct thorough assessments and provide personalized recommendations to ensure a qualified match with our caregivers and clients.

PCS provides recruiting and consulting services to employers. It is important to note that PCS does not employ live-in caregivers directly, but rather assists private employers in finding the right candidates for their needs. The focus is on assisting the employer. Services required, pay rate, schedules, and all specifics will be agreed upon between the employer and employee. Additionally, please be aware that consulting services are intended for informational and educational purposes only.
