Caregiver Agreement

Last updated: May 26, 2026

This Caregiver Agreement applies to caregivers who create profiles or accept requests through Connect Care. Connect Care is a referral and matching platform, not a caregiver employer or agency.

1. Accurate Profile Information

Caregivers must provide accurate and current information about identity, experience, services, languages, location, availability, training, credentials, and payment methods.

Caregivers must not claim to hold a certification, license, training, registration, or clearance that they do not actually hold.

2. Admin Review

Connect Care may review caregiver profiles before making them visible in search results. Connect Care may approve, reject, suspend, or remove a caregiver profile at its discretion.

Approval to appear on the platform does not create a guarantee of work, endorsement, employment relationship, agency relationship, or finding that the caregiver satisfies all legal requirements for every service or jurisdiction.

3. Independent Responsibility

Caregivers are responsible for complying with all laws that apply to their services, including licensing, registration, tax, insurance, wage and hour, transportation, mandated reporting, and scope-of-practice requirements.

Caregivers must not provide medical, nursing, medication administration, transportation, or personal care services unless legally permitted and qualified to do so.

4. Relationship With Families

Caregivers and families are responsible for discussing duties, schedule, compensation, cancellation, supervision, and expectations before services begin.

Connect Care may facilitate a connection but does not assign work, control day-to-day services, replace a written agreement where needed, or resolve every dispute between users.

5. Conduct

Caregivers must treat families and care recipients with dignity, respect, and non-discrimination.

Caregivers must promptly report emergencies, abuse, neglect, fraud, or suspected exploitation to the appropriate party or authority as required by law.
