Wellthy is not an agency. This is a private, family-hired position. We provide Care Coordination services to families nationwide, which may include connecting families with potential caregivers. All caregivers are hired directly by the family and are not employed by Wellthy. We take privacy very seriously. For questions on our Applicant Privacy Policy or to review, please visit our careers page. (Job #98473).

To ensure the well‑being of those we care for and to maintain the highest standards of service, Wellthy has established a clear and comprehensive vetting and cancellation policy for families seeking in‑home care. This policy is designed to provide clarity and fairness to all parties involved, ensuring that all parties involved are well‑informed when participating in joining Wellthy’s network.

As a provider in the Wellthy network, you are expected to give more than 24 hours notice for cancellations. A first‑time cancellation with less than 24 hours' notice will result in a flag on your account. If it happens again, you will be removed from the network and no longer able to support families. We are committed to providing reliable care, and we expect our providers to uphold this standard.
