In the world of home care, caregivers stand as the lifeblood of the industry. Their dedication, passion, and skills directly impact the quality of care provided to clients. We don’t just recognize this fact at Briggs Home Care – we live by it. Ensuring that our caregivers feel valued, supported, and empowered is a core aspect of our ethos. This article sheds light on the myriad ways we prioritize and care for our franchise employees.

A Comprehensive Training Program

Our commitment to our caregivers begins the moment they join the Briggs family.

Tailored Induction Sessions

For us, onboarding isn’t just about formalities. It’s a crucial period where we introduce our values, vision, and methodologies. Every caregiver undergoes a tailored induction program, ensuring they feel aligned with our goals from day one.

Ongoing Skill Development

The world of senior care is evolving rapidly. We ensure that our caregivers are always a step ahead with regular training sessions, workshops, and certifications. This continuous learning approach ensures they’re equipped to handle any scenario.

Health and Well-being Initiatives

Caregivers often deal with physically and emotionally demanding situations. Recognizing this, we’ve put forth several initiatives to ensure their well-being.

Mental Health Support

With access to counseling services and regular mental health check-ins, we ensure that our caregivers have the necessary emotional support to deal with the rigors of their job.

Physical Well-being Programs

From ergonomic training to ensure safe patient handling to wellness programs that focus on nutrition and exercise, Briggs makes sure that our caregivers are in the best of health.

Competitive Compensation and Benefits

Retaining top talent means recognizing their worth, and we do just that.

Above Industry-standard Pay

Our caregivers receive compensation that not only reflects their skill set but also their dedication and the impact they make daily.

Comprehensive Benefits Package

From health insurance to retirement plans, our benefits package is designed to provide security and peace of mind to our employees.

Fostering a Sense of Community

Being a caregiver can sometimes feel isolating, especially when working with home-bound clients. We counteract this with initiatives that foster community and connection.

Regular Team Meetups

Whether it’s a monthly meeting or an annual retreat, we ensure regular touchpoints where our caregivers can connect, share experiences, and learn from one another.

Open Communication Channels

Every caregiver has direct access to management, ensuring they always have a platform to voice concerns, give feedback, or seek guidance.

Growth and Advancement Opportunities

At Briggs, we don’t just offer jobs; we offer careers.

Clear Career Pathways

Every caregiver is introduced to a clear career pathway, ensuring they understand the growth opportunities available within the Briggs system.

Recognition and Rewards

Our caregivers are regularly recognized and rewarded for their exceptional performance, dedication, and the positive impact they make on clients’ lives.

Building a Caring Ecosystem

At Briggs Home Care, we firmly believe that the best care is provided when caregivers themselves feel cared for. Our commitment to our franchise employees goes beyond the professional realm, ensuring their well-being, growth, and satisfaction. As we continue to grow and evolve, our pledge to prioritize and uplift our caregivers remains unshaken. Because at the end of the day, it’s our caregivers who transform our vision into reality, one client at a time.
