Why families choose us
What makes BetterHands different from every other home care option in Sri Lanka.
Most providers place a caregiver and step back. BetterHands built a full-service care operation — rigorous vetting, expert matching, and ongoing support — that protects your family at every step.
PHSRC-Registered Nurses
Every clinical nurse holds a current PHSRC practising certificate — verified before placement, not assumed.
50+ Matching Factors
Language, personality, clinical skills, cultural fit — your caregiver is matched precisely, not just assigned.
80% Rejection Rate
Only 1 in 5 applicants passes our multi-stage screening. Your family never has to be the quality filter.
Same Caregiver, Every Time
Consistency is care. The same face builds the relationship, routine, and trust your loved one needs.
Family Updates Always
After every visit, your family receives a welfare update — no guessing, no silence, no anxiety.
Free Replacement
14-day placement guarantee and 7-day free replacement — because getting it right matters more than protecting our margin.
