It has been almost a year since I requested services for my mother, who lives alone, from a Japanese caregiver company called H Service.
I am no longer convinced that the cost of the service is worth the several thousand dollars per month that the office charges (frequent subs ) and the care giver's work (my mother says he is always looking at his cell phone, is late, etc.).
I am thinking of looking for a private care giver instead of going through a company, but I would appreciate your advice on the advantages and disadvantages of getting services from a company or from a private care giver.

#20Saint,
Basically, the most important thing is how well the office handles the situation.
I've had subs come to my office who had terrible body odor ≪(filthy?). ) Considering the care giver, a surprising grandmother care giver (same age according to my mother), I am only worried about asking this company to change care givers and have not been able to take action, but I might ask once. I will discuss this with my mother. Thank you!

Haha, you are on the side of the family that hires the care giver. I see. The care giver can't decide the hours of care, can they?
It is normal for the family and the company to decide when to visit and when not to visit. I think it's great if you can just do what you have to do and go home at any time you want.
Don't try to divert the conversation by interjecting when you don't know what's going on inside.
You said a few minutes, how do you answer that?

I don't know, but I've heard from people who ask for care that they clean, bathe, and cook meals for a few days, 2-3 times a week.

If you're on a long term contract, you don't have a choice ?
If you don't talk to them, what would you rather be doing for long hours ?
Just sitting around ?.

Yobiko
I seem to be a young person for a care giver and have only met care givers older than me.
It is true that many people are not comfortable being cared for by people their own age.
Some of my clients are like that.
On the other hand, however, it seems to be easier to talk to them when they are close in age, or when they get along well with each other.
Maybe there are different tastes.
You may want to take this opportunity to review your request and find someone who is closer to what you want.
