Hire professional caregivers to improve holistic wellness and recovery

In Malaysia, family members tend to be the one taking up the role of the primary caregiver when a loved one is diagnosed with a health condition. While we may initially feel that we are able to cope by ourselves, the lack of proper caregiving skills, knowledge and support may compromise care quality and lead to caregiver stress and burnout.

Whether you need long-term care to manage chronic or advanced conditions or simply require temporary support while you take a break from caregiving for self-care, caregivers can help.

Caregivers can also support with post-surgery care. Those who live alone or are unaware of proper care techniques often end up back in the hospital after being discharged. Professional caregivers can step in to support with activities of daily living and ensure that care continues beyond the acute care setting, ensuring full recovery and reducing hospital re-admissions.

How can professional caregivers help?

Personal Care

Assist with the activities of daily living (ADLs) – eating, bathing, getting dressed, toileting, transferring, and continence.

Companionship

Befriend and engage through conversations, interactive activities and outdoor trips.

Night Care

Care provided through the night to assist with toileting or nursing needs, prevent wandering and reduce fall-risk.

Medical Escort

Accompany and facilitate transport to-and-fro between home and medical appointments, scans and treatment visits.

Vital Signs Monitoring

Keep track of your loved one’s health as our Care Pros help to record temperature, pulse and/or blood pressure readings.

Check-in Visit

Get transparent real-time updates on how your loved one is doing while you are away for peace of mind.

Improving quality of life with professional caregivers

Having an additional pair of helping hands can relieve the pressure off family caregivers, whether temporarily or in the long-run.

Equipped with the relevant skills and knowledge, professional caregivers can share the load and guide you along your caregiving journey, ensuring that your loved one receives the care they deserve. Having a trained professional around can also help first-time caregivers learn the ropes of caregiving.

Furthermore, it is important to have a caregiver who can converse in the language or dialect that the care recipient is most comfortable with. This prevents miscommunication in care needs and allows for meaningful conversations to flow, which is key in promoting mental and emotional wellbeing.

Besides caring for the care recipient, a secondary role of professional caregivers is to provide emotional support and lend a listening ear to families. Family caregivers, especially sole caregivers, often find it comforting to share their journey with someone who understands how tough caregiving can get.

Cost of hiring a caregiver in Malaysia

Service FAQ

Does Homage provide live-in caregivers?

Our caregivers currently provide 24-hour care service but not live-in caregiving.

For our 24-hour care service, two caregivers will be scheduled for the visits. Care will be split into 12-hour shifts to support you and your loved one round-the-clock each day.

What is the shortest duration for a care visit?

The duration of a Homage care visit by our caregivers starts from just one hour, depending on the family’s preferences and your loved one’s needs.

Who are the Homage caregivers?

Homage caregivers are locals from all walks of life, who are passionate and dedicated to delivering quality care to families and care recipients in Malaysia.

All our caregivers have valid CPR certification and receive caregiver training. They are also required to go for a mandatory tuberculosis screening to ensure a clean bill of health.

Before joining us as a Care Professional, Homage also conducts a face-to-face interview to screen for personality, competency and scenario-based behaviour, in addition to comprehensive and stringent criminal record and reference checks from the Royal Malaysia Police and previous employers.

How fast can I get a caregiver?

Once you have confirmed that you will like to engage a Homage caregiver, we can match you or your loved one with a suitable Care Professional as fast as within 5 working days.

How much does it cost to hire a caregiver?

We have interim to longer-term care packages with varying care durations so that you and your loved one can find a care package that best fits your needs and preferences. Care packages can also help save more for multiple care sessions.

Can 1 caregiver care for 2 care recipients at the same time?

To ensure you or your loved one receives undivided attention and care, each care recipient will be matched to a dedicated caregiver who fits their needs and preferences. If there are 2 people in the same home who needs care, a caregiver will be present to care for each recipient respectively.

What our customers say

Help during the pandemic

The team has been sublime to work with albeit having to temporarily halt engaging them for care services due to the pandemic situation now in Malaysia. All teething issues in the initial phase of engagement were swiftly addressed and satisfactorily so. Special shoutout to Shirley from Homage who has been responding promptly to all my queries and requests (and went far and beyond my expectations with her actions in all counts).

Wong Voon Bing
Highly recommended care when I'm away

My father had a fall recently and sustained a hip fracture. Living overseas and not being able to travel back home to assist with recovery was very worrying. A friend recommended Homage to help with his nursing care. They are prompt in replying to messages. The care provided was excellent and highly professional. We have been very pleased with the service. There are times when we had to change the appointment time and they obliged and looked into our needs.

Anisa Aisha
Positive experience

Our experience has been very positive. So far, we have used their Care Pros perhaps 10 times (for checking in on mum) and she has been nothing short of kind and supportive. The coordinator Bel has also been a great help since day one. I find the price to be reasonable. Love the reporting feature on their app. You could see what has been done during the visit. It’s worth trying out.

Adelaine Yeo
My gratitude and appreciation

My 85-year-old mother, who underwent post-ventral incisional hernia surgery in January 2019 had CPs from Homage, all professionally trained, from leading Malaysian hospitals. The CPs nursed my mother with diligence, and compassion; providing invaluable tips on elderly caregiving to family members. My gratitude and appreciation to Team Homage.

Azwan Shahuddin
Definitely one of the best!

I had positive experiences with Homage so far. They are flexible, affordable, and professional. The coordinator from Homage has been very helpful and accommodating to my request since day one. Caregivers assigned to take care of my grandmother are punctual, professionally trained and attentive. Hope they will continue to serve well.

Kamilah Barvin
Comprehensive physiotherapy program

Homage has helped us a lot in assisting the recovery of our beloved father. They provide us with a comprehensive explanation regarding the physiotherapy program. The therapist they sent is highly qualified, courteous, passionate, and gave outstanding service. And above all, the charges are fair and affordable.

Farizal Anam
Guidance for my domestic helper

Thank you Homage for your assistance after my mom was discharged from the hospital due to dengue fever. Mom regained her confidence to take her first shower after discharge with the help of Homage's caregiver, something my domestic helper will not be able to do. Also to guide my domestic helper to handle her in a more hygienic way. My maid learned the proper method and able to give better care to mom now. Highly recommend it to people who looking for professional care services to manage family members who need help.

Overall a good team work

I want to thank Homage for their excellent service especially Ms. Ginger for her brilliant communication and customer service and for making the necessary arrangements. She does a good follow-up before and after the physio, also accurate feed-back. We appreciate Ms. Shu for her excellent physio service which made my mother gain confidence that she can walk again. Ms. Shu is very patient, hard-working, and committed to seeing my mum will be completely restored and healed. Thank you.
