PROPERTY / VALUABLES DISCLOSURE
Hi! I wanted to write to you to touch base on an important item. As you know, Home Instead Senior Care is a licensed home care agency with over 15 years serving Manhattan’s elderly. We are fully insured against any theft resulting from any of our caregivers. All of our caregivers have impeccable backgrounds as per FBI fingerprinting and we have never needed to use this policy to date.
We recognize that our clients may have many valuables, including jewelry and other items, which can be lost or stolen. We also understand that there are numerous people who may come into the homes - our staff, housekeepers, physical therapists, handymen, housekeepers, Visiting Nurses, etc.
Effective immediately, our insurance company is requiring that we (and all other agencies they insure) ask each client to complete and submit this online form (where you are asked to itemize and declare any and all valuables). If you are not able to complete any portion of the form for any reason, or have any questions, please call Home Instead representative Balbina Polanco at (212) 614-8054 or email her at bal@homeinsteadny.com
Thank you!
Christian Steiner (owner)
