Assisted living/ Midcare

Frail Care (Dementia and Alzheimer’s)
This is for a person who would require a lot of nursing, he/she may need help with dressing, washing, and toileting may not be bed ridden. A frail person may be physical ok but mentally frail and requires constant supervision e.g. senile patients, dementia and Alzheimer patients.
Post-operative care
A person requiring this type of care has probably spent some time in hospital as a result of illness or an operation and is requiring care. The person will be medically stable and no longer to be in hospital for example after a stroke, fracture, pneumonias, heart attack, surgery etc.

How We Work
We would firstly take a comprehensive job specification from you. From this we would
present you with a short list of candidates. This could happen in our offices, or if you
prefer a facilitator could bring prospective employees to your home or place of
business for you to interview.
The facilitator will either assist you with the interview, or simply be available to
answer any questions. The facilitator will make sure that the duties are clearly defined
and that the candidates are suitably able and willing to perform them. (All references
and contact numbers of referees will be made available.)
When you have selected an employee, we would assist you with the contract. In terms
of the contract your new employee would be subject to a probationary period of up to
90 days. The contract falls within the parameters of the Basic Conditions of
Employment Act and clearly outlines all duties and obligations for both parties.
Our facilitators will be present when the contract is drawn up and make sure that the
new employee clearly understands what is expected of him or herself.

agency and introduces you to suitable candidates and charges a fee
