Independent workers may be linked with support group or not, but they will have command on their rate, timings and what services they can provide to the customers.They also deal directly with the people they care for and can more easily tailor their services to precisely meet a person's needs.

Here are some of the benefits of hiring an independent support worker are:

  • More flexibility over when you receive care
  • Communicate directly with your support worker and explain your needs
