Every provider we work with is vetted by Family Lantern and has passed a background check before it can contact a family. We do not employ caregivers ourselves, so ask each provider how it screens and trains the caregivers it sends. We do not provide care ourselves. Services, availability, pricing, and eligibility are determined by each provider.
