“If they were to hire a private caregiver, if that person gets sick or their car breaks down and they can’t get to work that day, they don’t have any backups. So at Village Caregiving, if the caregiver that’s scheduled to be there and something unfortunate happens whether they get sick or they can’t make it to work that day, we have a ton of caregivers who we can send as a backup to cover that shift,” Ryan Hill, Executive Director for Toledo Village Caregiving, said. “So essentially, we don’t promise that every shift can be covered, but probably about 90% of our shifts are going to be covered by another caregiver if one happens to not be able to show up due to sickness or unforeseen circumstances.”
Village Caregiving started in 2013 in Barboursville, West Virginia. The privately owned company that was once just one building has since expanded to over 60 offices around the country today. Village Caregiving has been in Toledo for two and a half years.
