Reference Checks The objective of the recruitment and referral process is to relieve families from the burden of actually finding capable and qualified care providers themselves without removing them entirely from the decision making process.
Families make the final decision as to who will provide the respite support to their child after interviewing all the interested candidates that were referred through the Central Region Respite Society.
Part of our screening process includes performing reference checks on all the applicants and then providing the families with that information so they can make informed decisions about whom they wish to select.
Below are our reference check forms (in various formats) that we ask you as the potential respite care provider's listed reference to complete. Please take the time to review the sample form as a guide to the particular information we are interested in learning about the potential respite care provider. This valuable information is what the families will review when considering whom they wish to select as their respite support provider.
Thank you for assisting us with this process in supporting families as they look to address their respite needs. The form can be completed and returned to CRRS either by e-mail at trent.coady@respite.ca or by fax to (902) 484-5960.
