Software Product For Eldercare Employers

As the first wave of baby boomers turns 60, eldercare issues are facing an increasingly wider segment of the United States population. Now, a new software product is available for household employers of eldercare givers or providers. ElderCarePay™ is believed to be the first software product specifically designed for eldercare employers.

A free 30-day trial of ElderCarePay is now available for download at http://www.ElderCarePay.com.

With the older population in the U.S. reportedly on the rise, the need for ElderCarePay™ is greater than ever. In 2005, the U.S. Department of Labor statistics is believed to have estimated that the number of people in older age groups, with much greater than average health care needs, will grow faster than the total population by 2014. Home health care, nursing and residential care will increase rapidly as life expectancies rise and as aging children - who are less able to care for their parents - rely more on professional care.

Essentia Software Corporation, the innovator of NannyPay®, the successful payroll software product for household employers, has created ElderCarePay™ to meet the specific needs of household employers of nurses, nurses' aides, and other domestic employees.

According to Essentia:

• ElderCarePay™ calculates Federal and state payroll withholding taxes (and supports all 50 states). This new software also generates withholding and liability reports, and prints Forms W-2 /W-3, and Schedule-H (Household Employment Taxes).
• Designed for simple setup and use, ElderCarePay™ boasts robust payroll features that ease the burden for household employers of eldercare givers. The software handles multiple employees, and prints a basic plain paper pay stub or payroll checks.
• In addition to its payroll features, ElderCarePay™ also includes a comprehensive Employer's Guide. Written by experts with first-hand experience in understanding and complying with the tax laws applicable to eldercare employers and their employees, ElderCarePay's Employer's Guide outlines four easy steps to get users started on their way to tax compliance. As an added convenience, ElderCarePay™ includes all relevant Internal Revenue Service forms, and an extensive reference source of state tax agencies.
