SitByCare health sitters provide connection and companionship, and do not perform, assist or intervene with medication or medical care needs. A SitByCare health sitter is not a substitute for a healthcare professional. In case there is a concern or a medical situation with a patient a sitter needs to reach out to the attending nurse, medical or care staff as quickly as possible. We do not allow our sitters to intervene into any medical need or situation.
