IN BUSINESS
What would you like our readers to know about your business? We offer 24 hour caregivers. We are on call throughout the day, night or weekend. We service Hancock, Harrison, Jackson, George, Stone and Pearl River counties at this time. We accept Long Term Care Insurance,
VA Aid and Attendance and Private Pay. Praetorian is also a Medicaid Waiver provider for the Elderly and Disabled Personal Care Services and In Home Respite Service Programs. Our
administrative staff has over 48 years in combined experience assisting seniors, and individuals with disabilities in our community with medical and non-medical services.
What sets your business apart from others in the same field? We invest a lot of financial and training resources into our caregivers. Before signing with any agency to provide care for your loved one you should ask these questions:
1 – Do you drug test your caregivers? 2 – Do you do Federal background checks on them? 3 – Do you carry Workers’ Compensation Insurance
on them? 4 – Are they your employees?
No matter how well you think you know someone, without these factors you are opening yourself up for potential problems in the home unless you are selective about who you let in your home to take care of a loved one. With
Praetorian there is accountability.
Tell us about one valuable lesson you learned along the way:
We want to be a partner in the communities we serve. Collaborating with our colleagues in this industry to bring the complete spectrum of at-home care to individuals with needs and pulling all our resources together will help our families and friends receive the care they deserve at home.
