What Sets Select Home Portland Care Overnight Care Apart?
One primary difference that directly relates to overnight care is what we refer to as a “sleep shift”. If qualified, this allows our caregiver to rest once the evening/bedtime routine is complete. We then monitor your loved one with a variety of methods to ensure that when they wake up and need help, their caregiver will be there in a timely manner to prevent falls or other issues.
We can discuss various ways we do this based on the behavior and cognitive level of our client. If qualified, we are able to offer this shift at a discounted rate which could save families over $2,700 per month (if not more) based on our pricing comparison recently completed.
Instead of looking for an opportunity to upcharge as some of our competitors do, we took the opportunity to find a way to help save families money given night shifts are generally less involved than their daytime counterparts. Our staff fully supports this approach as it works well for many.
Our sleep shift model not only saves families money but also supports caregivers like nursing students who prefer night shifts. Unlike competitors who use a ‘plug and play’ approach to staffing, we focus on providing consistency which is crucial for high-quality care.
At SHC, we believe our strength lies in our experience, team approach, and commitment to consistency. We have been serving Portland and the nearby areas of Beaverton, Hillsboro, Lake Oswego, West Linn, and Tigard since 2009. With our local experience and an office team with an average tenure of 9+ years, we possess deep knowledge of the healthcare field that directly benefits our clients.
