While some might think the art of matchmaking is reserved for fairy tales and ballroom dances, we at Acquaint know better.
It’s an everyday necessity – one that we perform with the utmost diligence every time we pair a new client with their care team.
How do we do it, you ask? Well, a lady wouldn’t usually share her secrets. But for you, we’ll make an exception.
Step 1: The meet-cute
It all begins the moment we hear your voice for the very first time.
Yes, that typically happens over the phone, but you can’t deny the immediate feeling that you and Acquaint just fit.
And that special feeling only gets stronger as you tell us what brought you to our line. Perhaps you’re about to break up with your current provider. A friend set us up. Or maybe you found us online. Whatever it was, it doesn’t take long to know it was meant to be.
Step 2: Set the scene
The next step is to arrange our very first face-to-face meeting. Now, while we usually would never presume to impose, this is one occasion when we simply must insist you host!
You see, to match you with the perfect person on our care team, we need to get to know your home, your family and your unique preferences firsthand.
After all, we would hardly deign to send plant-assassin Sarah your way if you needed a hand in the garden. Just as chatty Amanda wouldn’t make a member of your care team if you’re more inclined to a quiet approach.
Step 3: Making you a match
Once we know what we’re dealing with, we get to work finding you your perfect match from our dedicated team of carers.
Nothing is left to chance. Matchmaking is, as you know, a science.
So, if you want someone to give you a hand in the kitchen? It’s no coincidence your carer will be a gun at the grill. Or if you need someone to help you with any personal conditions? You’ll receive an expert carer who’s respectful, thorough and discreet.
Step 4: Trimming the fat
It’s your home, for goodness sake. The last thing you want is a revolving door of strangers coming in and out to tell you when to shower.
That’s why, here at Acquaint, we assign only a select few to maintain your care, your way. So you don’t need to get to know too many different faces or compromise on the lifestyle you’ve built for yourself.
Step 5: Happily ever after
Once we’ve assembled the team we feel is best for the job, we approach our staff and inform them of the brilliance that is you.
We ask them for their commitment (casual commitment, of course, we’d hardly have you rushing into a relationship too soon). Then, the group of you will start your happily ever after!
Our at-home aged care service goes beyond traditional offerings. Our passionate care team is here to help you live life your way. So, if you need someone – who was hand-selected for the job – to look after you or a loved one, get in touch today on 03 9267 9090.
