Agency-Coordinated Services: Serving Edmonton, Sherwood Park & Fort Saskatchewan
An agency-managed care model where caregiver assignments and scheduling are coordinated by our team, available exclusively within our local operating regions.
Our agency-coordinated services are designed for families who prefer a fully managed, hands-off approach to care. Under this model, Plum Wings Family Care Co. assigns pre-screened caregivers from our trusted pool based on your needs, schedule, and preferences.
Caregivers are engaged on a shift or hourly basis and are available through the agency depending on their availability. Families do not need to handle recruitment, scheduling, or supervision, as all aspects of service delivery are managed by our team.
Our agency-coordinated services include:
Assignment of pre-screened caregivers from our trusted pool
Flexible scheduling based on your needs (daytime, overnight, or recurring)
Ongoing coordination of shifts and caregiver management
Backup arrangements in the event of caregiver unavailability
Centralized communication for updates, concerns, and feedback
Payment processing handled directly through the agency
Support from our Care & Field Supervisor, including check-ins and home visits where necessary
Ongoing quality assurance to ensure services meet your expectations
Access to your secure client portal to book services, manage schedules, and view caregiver details upon registration
