The Employee Model

At Alternative, we adhere to the “agency model” of home health care

As an agency, all of our caregivers are employees of the company. So unlike independent contractors who work with nurse registries, our caregivers are:

Insured: for workers compensation, unemployment and liability

Bonded: which allows for protection of a client’s personal property if needed

Supervised: because every caregiver is overseen by, and reports to, a company supervisor.

Providing only W-2 employees assures our clients the highest level of protection available.  It’s the only way we do business
