When seeking care for a loved one, you deserve exceptional, reliable support—enter Family & Nursing Care. With nearly 60 years of service, it is one of the region’s oldest, largest and most respected home care resources. At the heart of Family & Nursing Care’s success is its Caregiver Recruiting team’s finely tuned screening process, designed to attract only the most skilled, compassionate and trustworthy caregivers.
“Our rigorous screening process means only the top eight percent of applicants meet our unwavering standards of excellence, ensuring clients receive top-tier care tailored to their evolving needs,” says Director of Caregiver Recruiting Pamela Barrett.
The company’s process begins with a phone screening that evaluates applicants’ credentials and communication skills. Only those with proven hands-on caregiving experience and capacity for empathy advance. Candidates then complete an online application, followed by a competency exam to evaluate their knowledge and skills in caregiving. Every step—background checks, reference verifications and in-depth, face-to-face interviews—considers both qualifications and reliability.
“We always ask ourselves, “Would I trust this person with my own loved one?” Barrett adds.
The company’s dedicated Caregiver Services Department provides ongoing support to caregivers, such as making sure their credentials are kept current so they can focus on providing the best care to clients. More than 90 percent of caregivers report being proud to be affiliated with the company, and many refer their peers, continuing a legacy of trust and premium service.
“We’re committed to providing access to best-in-class caregivers who treat your loved ones like family,” says Barrett.
Founded in 1968 by Sandy Kursban, Family & Nursing Care is a leading resource for home care services in the Washington Metropolitan region. Family & Nursing Care was awarded its ninth consecutive National Business Research Institute Circle of Excellence Award in 2024, and 98 percent of surveyed clients would recommend the company to friends and family.
