-
Every caregiver on alto is required to go through a strict vetting process before they can be hired, including a recent Criminal Record Check with the Vulnerable Sector and CPR & First Aid. We focus on the tough stuff so you can focus on what matters - receiving the care you need.
-
We’re putting the power back in your hands, allowing you to book as little or as much home care as you need, when and where you need it, with the caregiver that is the best fit for your family.
No more calls to the agency wondering where your caregiver is only to find out they were sent somewhere else due to being short-staffed, leaving you hanging. With alto, you can immediately find a new caregiver and talk to them directly. Care without compromise.
