Experienced Caregivers We Trust and Support
When you welcome a caregiver into your home, you should know who's walking through the door. Familiar Surroundings is a licensed, full-service home care agency, and our caregivers are our employees.
We carefully screen our caregivers, look for previous caregiving experience and match them with clients based on their needs, schedules and personalities. And our involvement doesn't end once care begins. Our team stays in communication with clients, families and caregivers so we can address concerns and make adjustments when needed.
We Offer 24/7 Support With Sensi
A caregiver can't be there every moment. That's why we offer 24/7 coverage through Sensi to clients who want an additional layer of support at home, at no additional cost.
Sensi is state-of-the-art technology that uses audio-based devices placed throughout the home to identify care-related events that might need attention. It can alert our team to concerns such as a fall or cry for help, allowing us to respond sooner when something isn't right.
We've seen Sensi make a real difference. It has alerted us when clients have fallen, allowing our team to act quickly and help emergency responders reach them.
How Sensi Can Help
- Detect falls and cries for help
- Identify potential changes in condition
- Provide additional support between caregiver visits
