[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t tell you how many caregivers offer to work off the books. Logically it makes sense to them because it eliminates the middle man and they get to keep all the money. But you lose the insurance of the agency and other protections. Honestly if my mom needed continuing care I’d probably prefer to go this route because you can normally negotiate a win/win. You pay less, they keep more. But it is incredibly common for the caregivers to lobby for a direct hire position. Every contract I’ve signed with an agency prohibits me from poaching them.[/quote] Yes. Please don't report. This person is not abiding by the terms of her contract, perhaps, [b]but it's not proof of dishonesty elsewhere[/b]. You can just shelve it for now, and explain that perhaps you can do this in the future. [/quote] How would the OP know this? Caretaker IS being dishonest to their agency so it is fair to assume the same about their character, no?[/quote]
