Private Pay Home Care in Sunrise
Arranged and paid for by the household, by the hour, with the cost of a first month stated plainly during the opening telephone call.
What the household gets for it
It is the more expensive route, and two of the things it buys cannot be had any other way. Speed is one, since nothing stands between a decision and the first visit. The other is being allowed to start far smaller than anyone would advise, and then to watch.
That is exactly why this office works the way it does. A household spending its own money is entitled to insist on four light weeks before committing to any schedule, and nobody here treats that as an indulgence.
Hours move in both directions afterwards, settled over the telephone rather than held until some review date comes round.
Everything arranged through this office is private pay. No eligibility test, no waiting list, and no third party deciding what a household is allowed.
The practical effect is that the family is the client, and the family can change its mind, about hours, days or the aide, with a telephone call.
The money, said out loud
Every figure settled before anyone comes round.
An hourly figure, early
Quoted during the opening call, together with the shortest visit this office books, so nothing turns up unannounced.
Priced by what is done
An hour of company costs less than an hour of washing. Putting both inside one visit changes the rate and nothing else.
Nothing long to sign
Booked a week ahead at a time, closable by either party on reasonable notice, which is precisely what allows a trial month.
Changed over the telephone
More after a difficult fortnight, less once it settles, stopped altogether while relatives are staying.
Billed for visits that happened
Each one with a written entry sitting behind it, and nothing charged for a visit that did not take place.
The introduction is not charged
The introduction never reaches an invoice, and no paperwork is put in front of anyone during it.
Outside what this office does
- Claims or paperwork under a public programme
- Long-term care insurance, claimed on your behalf
- Veterans' benefit applications

- Billing anyone other than the household
- Arrangements where the payer is not the family organising the care
Price the month, not the year
Ask what four weeks comes to. It is a smaller figure than an annual estimate and a far more useful one.
