Caring for a loved one can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. Carelink Plus, Inc. provides support that fosters independence, dignity, and comfort for individuals at home. We pay attention to every detail and prioritize safety, well-being, and peace of mind.
The client or their representative, along with the agency, will agree on the preferred day, time, and duration of services. The “13-Hour Rule” from the Department of Labor applies for flat-rate shifts, allowing 13 hours for work, 8 hours for sleep (with at least 5 uninterrupted hours), and 3 hours for meals and personal breaks.
If the caregiver must stay awake throughout the night, the hourly rate for 24-hour care and overtime rules will apply. For live-in care, the caregiver’s meals are expected to come from the family pantry. If this is not feasible, the client should give the caregiver a daily meal allowance of $10.00.
