No, in our app you can have a long term caregiver, notify our team and come to an agreement with the caregiver. In our app it will only allow you to book up to a maximum of one week as our payment system works on a weekly basis, however that does not mean that the caregiver will change week to week. It only means that the payment (reservation) is made weekly.
The cost at MK Care does not vary according to the services or type of shift, it only varies according to the type of caregiver. Each caregiver assigns their cost per hour and is verified with our team according to their profession, qualifications, experience and market. We show you the ranges we have in our app:
Caregivers with basic skills starting at $10/hour: Caregivers with basic skills for direct patient care with 0-4 years of experience. They do not have any current, accredited certification to care for older adults. Typically a housekeeper or nursing student early in their career as a professional caregiver.
Caregivers with intermediate skills start at $12/hour: they are caregivers with more advanced patient care skills, have been practicing in the field for 5 to 9 years and have experience with at least 2 or 3 types of patients. Usually practical/graduate nurses and/or housekeepers with current elder care certifications.
Caregivers with advanced skills starting at $15/hour: Caregivers with a variety of experiences with different types of patients (e.g., tracheostomy, ventilator, gastro, cancer patients, etc.) and with 10+ years of practice in the field. Typically practical or graduate nurses who have a current nursing license and/or housekeepers with at least 3 current specialty certifications.
