Why Home Care Agency Awards Matter For Your Loved One
“The Home Care Pulse Award demonstrates our commitment to providing the highest quality care for each and every one of our clients,” said Douglas Wilber, founder and president of Cherished Companions Home Care. “We’re grateful for the award, but we’re even more grateful that our clients and their families trust us to provide compassionate, professional care and companionship for their loved ones.”
Who Provides Valid Home Care Agency Awards?
Agencies may receive awards from a number of different organizations including local business groups and city organizations.
The Home Care Pulse awards are presented by the industry’s leading satisfaction management firm. As a third-party firm, Home Care Pulse provides unbiased, high-quality assessments with no conflicts of interest. These assessments include:
- Interviews with clients
- Interviews with caregivers
- Rankings for caregiver and client satisfaction
What Qualifies an Agency for Consideration?
To be considered for an award, an agency must become a Trusted Provider and maintain that status over a specified time period, agree to a certain number of client and/or caregiver interviews, and achieve top percentile rankings or Best of Home Care status in specified categories.
Types of Awards
Home Care Pulse offers three categories of awards in addition to its Trusted Provider status. Each award has unique requirements that must be met for an agency to qualify. The three award categories are:
- Provider of Choice—The agency must be a Home Care Pulse Certified Trusted Provider for at least six months, have at least 10% of clients interviewed monthly, and rank in the top 50th percentile in at least two client satisfaction categories in the region.
- Employer of Choice—The agency must be a Home Care Pulse Certified Trusted Provider for at least six months, have at least 10% of caregivers interviewed monthly, and rank in the top 50th percentile in at least two caregiver satisfaction categories in the region.
- Leader in Excellence–The agency must be a Home Care Pulse Certified business for at least twelve months, complete at least two client and two caregiver satisfaction interviews per month for twelve months, and achieve Best of Home Care in at least ten of the fourteen client and caregiver satisfaction categories over the past twelve months. This is the highest award granted by the Home Care Pulse organization.
Home Care Pulse uses the client and caregiver satisfaction surveys to assess an agency based on what clients and caregivers have to say about their experiences there.
