Seniors On Site (Ottawa) Inc.

Description

Our caregivers have a wealth of experience in various fields and have a desire to use this experience in a positive way in their community. Whether it is helping families with child care needs or providing a helping hand to seniors, our caregivers have a desire to make a difference in their communities. What we aim to do is find the right match so that your time together is enjoyable. Will I have the same SOS senior home services caregiver all the time? We strive to provide continuity of service so that a strong bond is formed between our client and the SOS caregiver. On occasion, two SOS caregivers may be required to meet our client service needs. For instance, we have caregivers who assist the client in the home while another caregiver may fill the gardening needs outdoors. What if the senior home service caregiver is sick or on vacation? SOS has a team of caregivers that offer an array of services. If one individual is not available, we will ensure that your service is not interrupted when the SOS caregiver is not available. You will be contacted in advance to advise you that the caregiver is not available.

Seniors on Site (SOS) is an Ottawa based company founded in 2008. It was our own family experiences caring for our parents that made us realize the need for non-medical home care and services to help seniors live independently at home. When our children were toddlers, we relied upon our parents to assist us with child care, knowing that we could trust them with whatever unexpected situation would arise. It was those experiences that made us realize that younger seniors could fulfil a growing need to help and assist older seniors and families. Seniors on Site is a non-medical home care agency providing assistance to seniors whether it be in their own home, retirement residence, assisted living facility or nursing home. We also assist young families and busy professionals in managing their busy lifestyles and we provide a helping hand to new mothers. We are a unique company . Our services are offered by experienced and qualified caregivers (50+) with a wealth of experience caring for their own families, parents, and homes and who are ready to make a difference in the lives of others and their community.

Any conversations or in-home visits prior to the commencement of services is free of charge. What if I am not happy with the SOS senior home services caregiver once they are hired? We commit to follow-up with our clients within two weeks to ensure that you are completely satisfied with the senior home services you are receiving. If you are not, we will arrange to have someone who can provide the services to your satisfaction. Sometimes it can simply be that there is a difference of personalities involved. A simple adjustment in individuals can sometimes make a big difference. In addition to providing the services to your complete satisfaction, we aim to create a relationship where both the client and the caregiver enjoy working together. As a result, we find that many rewarding relationships are created.

We take pride in our team and continuously strive to improve the quality of our services. We do so by offering seminars and workshops to our caregivers in areas that will improve services they provide to our clients. How is my SOS caregiver selected for my needs? Our caregivers have varying backgrounds and include personal support workers, retired teachers, retired nurses, retired business people, pastors, child care providers and many other professions. We draw on the right combination of skills and background to meet your service needs. Will I be able to choose my senior home services caregiver? Will I meet them before services start? During the initial conversation and in-home visit, we will take note of your request for services and select the best SOS caregiver to meet your needs. A meeting will be arranged for an introduction between you and the SOS caregiver. As a client, you will endorse the individual selected before services commence.
