Bonded and insured quality caregivers are our promise to you and your family.

1. Choosing a caregiver: our hiring process

Each potential employee undergoes thorough screening prior to being offered a position with Sunlight Care.

Our rigorous screening process evaluates

• Behavior
• Values
• Honesty
• Compassion
• Work ethic

Each Certified Home Health Aide applicant must successfully pass a written and physical skills competency test, a drug test, and the New Jersey Board of Nursing background investigation. Their work history is evaluated and verified. Finally, the caregiver is required to have a physical and prove they are free of tuberculosis. We are confident you will be impressed with our employees.

2. Insured and bonded caregivers

• Each of our employees is covered with workers’ compensation insurance, so there is no liability for you or your family if an employee is injured on the job.
• Each employee is bonded for $10,000.
• Sunlight Care is fully insured. We carry General and Professional Liability Insurance in the amounts of $1,000,000 / $3,000,000. We also carry $1,000,000 in non-owned auto insurance.
• Sunlight Care does not use contractors (this is illegal in New Jersey). Sunlight Care pays all employer-related wage taxes and insurances (including workers’ compensation) for each of our employees. If one of our employees is hurt on the job, they are protected. You have no obligations to them.

3. Home health care supervision

All clients receiving personal care are evaluated by a registered nurse to determine what kind of care is needed. A unique care plan is developed for each client. Then a suitable home health aide is selected and oriented to the tasks by a registered nurse. Sunlight Care home health aides are supervised by a registered nurse. The plan of care is reviewed in person with the client at least every 60 days, or sooner if the situation changes.
