When a care user enters into a service agreement with a carer on the ESOM Care platform they simultaneously agree to pay the accompanying shift invoice at the determined rate. Please note that after the care has been delivered, it must be paid for, no refunds are issued. The care user is bound by the terms of a service agreement the moment they receive our service.
