If you’re at the point where you need home care, how do you know that the person who comes to assist you is the right person? This week on Aging in Portland, I interviewed Joanne Kantor, the Administrator of ComForCare Home Care in West Linn, and Danielle Hoygaard, their Director of Client and Caregiver Relations. We discussed matching the right home caregiver to each situation.

Since caregiving is the most intimate job in the world, it’s essential that your caregiver is a match for your specific needs. Joanne and Danielle join us on today's show to explain how they identify the right caregiver for each client. They look for six specific qualities in the people they hire and then match them to their client’s needs in those same areas. The goal is to make caregiving compatible, comfortable, and well-suited to you or your loved ones. Don’t miss this show!
