Freedom Home Care Shares Tips with Community On Hiring Caregivers

On April 11, Freedom Home Care shared tips with the community on hiring caregivers at a presentation at Lake Forest Bank & Trust, located at 959 S. Waukegan Rd. in Lake Forest.

The "Hiring A Caregiver: What to Know Before You Hire" discussion was led by Francine Brodsky from Freedom Home Care and Lauren Weldon from Margolis Weldon LLC. The presentation focused on things people need to know before they hire private care as well as the pros and cons of it. They also discussed taxes, licensing, and costs, which are all important elements of a caregiving contract. The event helped build understanding of what to look for in both private and agency caregivers.

"We are happy to be able to play a role in informing the community about the process of hiring a caregiver and all that goes into it," said Francine Brodsky, the Director of Business Development for Freedom Home Care. "It is such an important process, so it's vital for people to be educated before they get started."

"We're grateful to partner with Freedom Home Care in providing this type of programming for our community," said Lake Forest Bank & Trust President and CEO David Lee. "This presentation was offered through our Platinum Adventures social and travel club, which includes members who are age 50 or better and are current bank customers. We're proud to host educational events and seminars and invite you to join us for future events!"
