Nagaiki Caregiver Referral Program

Nagaiki, in Japanese, means “long life”. The goal of our Nagaiki Caregiver Referral Program is to enable seniors to live an independent life at home, for as long as possible, with “Kimochi” care and support. We offer a matching service with private caregivers along with resources to help seniors and their families in the search.

The Nagaiki Caregiver Referral Program is a matching service. Kimochi is not a home care agency and does not bond or insure the caregivers who are listed in our current registry.

The senior and/or family are the employers and will work directly with the caregiver to determine their schedule, work responsibilities, and compensation.

FEE FOR SERVICE

There is a suggested voluntary contribution to Kimochi of $25 for every three months (or $100 per year) a senior and/or family uses the Nagaiki Caregiver Referral Program. This is not a requirement to utilize the program and is separate from the hired caregiver’s compensation. Kimochi does not provide any compensation to the caregiver directly.

Please be sure to contact us if you hire a caregiver through the program so we can update the list accordingly.

“They can maintain a list of individuals (Nagaiki Caregiver Referral Program) who are interested in working to take care of your senior. We found two great helpers who spoke Japanese and worked with our family for about a year.”
