1. What type of employee screening does
Entech perform before placing a
caregiver in my home?
Entech prides itself on
performing rigorous pre-employment
screening. Our policy states that
all new employees must pass the
following:
- Criminal/background check
- TB testing
- 3 good reference checks from previous
employers
- Competency testing
- CPR certification
- Driving history check
2. What are the
fees for private duty home care services?
The cost of providing
home health care services to you or your
loved one, depends on the amount and type
of care provided. If the client
needs only the assistance of a home
health aide or companion, the cost would
be less than that of a RN or LPN.
An additional factor is the amount of
care needed: the patient may need
anywhere from 4 hours per week or up to
24-hours/day. Please call our
office and we would be happy to discuss
our rate plans with you.
Acceptable Payment

1. Auto Insurance
2. Workers compensation
3. Credit card, money order,

4. Private pay (out of pocket
5. Please inquire on what other
types of insurance is accepted

other Home Heath Care Agencies?

Medical Staffing has a solid
understanding of the commitment
necessary to provide the specialized
attention and care. We know first hand
the importance of having confidence and

personal mission of one of our owners,
Amy Gross. Amy’s husband was injured 10
years ago just prior to their wedding.
He suffered a C-5/C-6 injury to his
spinal cord and has been living in a
chair ever since. His ability to
overcome his challenges and learn to
“live a new normal”, is what drove us to
focus further on this division of the
business and put together the
exceptional team that we have.

we will continue to provide potential
