How do I check a caregiver in Prince Edward Island?
In Prince Edward Island, a vulnerable sector check is requested from the police service where the person lives: the municipal police if the community has one, otherwise the local RCMP detachment. The person being checked applies and gives consent, and it can take longer if fingerprints are needed.
A certificate badge on Maple Care means our team checked that document, but it does not replace your own checks. Ask to see the vulnerable sector check itself, and check its date, before anyone cares for a parent or child.
How do I choose a caregiver in Summerside?
Start with the badges on their profile: a verified badge means our team reviewed the account, and each certificate badge means we checked that document. Then talk before you agree to anything. Maple Care is not a party to your arrangement, so the final checks are yours:
- Interview them, ideally with your parent there.
- Ask for a current vulnerable sector check, first aid and any PSW certificate.
- Call at least two references from recent care work.
- Agree in writing on duties, hours, rate and who to call in an emergency.
