In-Home Care / Personal Assistance Services

At Hill Country Care Providers we can proudly boast about our caregivers and their training. We have the only "Certified Geriatric Caregivers" a standard that sets our team above employees at other agencies or facilities. Then each caregiver undergoes an additional 20 hours of training by our gerontologist before they can work with any of our clients. (The State of Texas only mandates a yearly training of four hours.) Additionally, each caregiver has monthly in-service training where they receive up-to-date training in other areas of care.

All of our caregivers pass a strict background and motor vehicle check and are insured and bonded through Hill Country Care Providers. Our staff are offered the option of medical insurance as part of our employment package of benefits.

Healthcare Survey Results

The Health Survey licensing review from the Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services was recently conducted at Hill Country Care Providers. The results of the survey team were resoundingly positive with a declaration of “No Deficiencies Cited.”

The survey was conducted over a three day period and included one-on-one interviews with clients, families and staff members, as well as reviews of non-medical, medical charts and personnel files. This is a very thorough and in-depth survey designed to identify any areas in the business which require additional care or are of concern to the State of Texas.

Hill Country Care Providers was found to be “in compliance with all applicable Home and Community Support Service Agencies Regulations” and “No Deficiencies Cited.”

Alternate Types of Care for Clients

Not all of Hill Country Care Providers clients are long-term or ongoing cases. Sometimes family caregivers just need a little bit of help. If you and your loved one need a certified dementia care giver for a few hours of respite, we are certainly happy to arrange that type of service.

Maybe you just need a break to catch the latest movie or enjoy a dinner out with a friend or spouse. HCCP will be happy to send one of our qualified and dedicated caregivers to assist you with your “special night (or afternoon) out.”

Hill Country Care Providers is also pleased to announce we are Austin's ONLY home health agency providing specialized care for persons recovering from day surgery.
