24 Hour Care or Less:

Day Kimball HomeMakers does provide 24 hour care. We do it differently than providers who use live ins. We use employees who work for our agency regularly and live locally. We adhere to overtime laws. We charge by the hour and provide a team of 6-8 employees who work shifts. This allows for adequate back up for emergency absences and ensures caregivers are fresh and ready to provide assistance.

Services include:

Overnight after a surgery
Overnights for Safety
24 Hour 7 Days a week
Large Blocks of time (Day or Night)
Family Vacations
