- Service area — Lincoln, Nebraska and the surrounding area. Call us directly to confirm coverage for a specific address.
- Payment & billing — Private Pay, Long-Term Care Insurance, and VA Community Care are accepted.
- Timeline — following an initial assessment, care typically begins within 24–48 hours. There is no minimum hour requirement, which allows for flexible starts, including short-term post-hospital support.
- Licensing — non-medical home care agencies are not required to hold a state license in Nebraska. Velora is an E-Verify participating employer, and every caregiver completes background screening before providing care.
- Privacy & compliance — Velora maintains client confidentiality in accordance with HIPAA and applicable Nebraska privacy regulations.
Caregiver Screening
Before providing care, every caregiver completes comprehensive background screening, reference and qualification verification, required health screening including TB screening, and employment eligibility verification. Velora is an E-Verify participating employer. Caregivers are also required to maintain current CPR and First Aid certification and meet our health and safety requirements.
Every caregiver completes orientation and competency-based training covering client safety, infection prevention and control, personal care, fall prevention, safe mobility and transfers, emergency procedures, confidentiality, documentation, recognizing and reporting changes in condition, and the prevention and reporting of abuse, neglect, and exploitation.
Velora also aims to match each caregiver to a client based on care needs and personality, and to provide the same caregiver at each visit whenever possible.
