AgingCare 2

I would say the caregiver quality was quite variable and owners response to a significant safety issue was somewhat lacking I would still recommend and advise caution and oversight

I selected St Mary’s because they responded immediately on a Sunday night. I needed a caregiver the next morning. Their name is deceptive as it is not associated with a church or religion. The director’s name is [name removed].

I had to pay a deposit that I understand other companies don't ask for. It was supposed to be refundable. I ask for it to be refunded and it never was

The only thing that seems to be problematic is the turnover. The first caregiver lasted 2 weeks. This new one has been here for 2 weeks and is talking about getting a full time job.

The staff at Home Instead were all fantastic, particularly [name removed], the manager. Very reliable and caring. Always kept me well informed. I would strongly recommend them to other families seeking home care.

Home instead is good at the office level. The caregivers are hit or miss. Some are great, some are ok, some are just there for a paycheck. I would tell others to leave a detailed list of wants and needs with the binder. So no matter what caregiver arrives that fay, they can be informed as to your specific wants and needs. Their system is in place with that info, but it helps to leave specifics in the home for best care

I would recommend them to others. The sales rep lady was very very helpful in coordinating things and adjusting things for me. I had to adjust a lot, so it was hard to get a regular caretaker. I did not like the part of having four hours minimum every day cause some days I only needed a couple of hours. So, more flexibility would've been nice. But I had my back messed up and really couldn't get around much, so they helped basically clean the house and kitchen and help me fix my bed and change my sheets. Because I could not lift anything or barely move. They even walked my dogs for me, which was helpful.

We used home care services through ComForCare Home Care for my loved one and the experience was very good. I would definitely recommend ComForCare to others looking for home care services.

The last three caregivers that my loved one had were wonderful, caring people. The care that they gave my loved one was tremendous. They were very considerate of her pain and needs. When my loved one could no longer get out of bed, they sat by her bedside and kept her company when family wasn't there. They took the time to have meaningful conversations with her. There was a temporary aide on one of the weekends that didn't work out as well, but I had called to ask that she not come back and the supervisor was very attentive to our complaint. I definitely would recommend them to others, but always remember that if a person is not a good fit to speak up.

I used home care services for myself through All Day Comfort Senior Care and overall it was a very good experience for me. I was going to have chemotherapy and wasn't sure how much help I would need, we settled on one night a week. Both of my caregivers worked from 5pm to 5am. My first caregiver filed my nails, ran the dishwasher and washed my laundry for me. My second caregiver cleaned a patio room for me. Both women were on time, friendly and helpful. I would recommend All Day Comfort Senior Care services to others. It is an expensive service and I felt that at this time I didn't need much help.

We chose this agency because of the friendliness, helpfulness and professionalism of [names removed]. They were very easy to work with.Thank you for helping us make a connection with Home Instead!

These numbers reflect "overall" experience; however, we had two exceptional caregivers, who went above & beyond our expectations, namely [name removed] & [name removed] Not only did they take good care of our mother physically, but they showed genuine interest in her overall wellbeing and were very supportive emotionally, making her feel "useful" despite her age & frailties. They are definite assets to Home Instead!

We used Agape Services for a short time to provide a safe environment for my mom. I was very satisfied with both the care and the communication. Mom's caretaker was always prompt, kept me updated and gave useful tips and feedback about my Mom. I would recommend Agape Services to family and friends.

[name removed] and I have great relationship and understanding each other. It took a while to get to know each other in the beginning as it was our first experience with home care but went great. He’s not intimated, not afraid to take criticism and we communicate well with each other. Everyone we’ve talked to has been very professional, helpful and the caregiving has been very conscientious, considerate and taking the time to know us and trustworthy

Overall we were pleased with our experience a few things could be better. If a new caregiver was coming we needed to know with a call beforehand because at the end of life consistency is important. I think having a few more very skilled caregivers are needed like the four we had so if one wasn’t available we would know they were just as good and we could meet them and decide if they were the right fit for us. The ones that we experienced were excellent felt like we could trust their decisions at all times with no worries.

We liked that we had 2 consistent caregivers throughout our home hospice experience. These caregivers got to know our loved one, showed attention to details and checked in with us before they left. We were very happy with their care. There was one caregiver who came twice that did not meet our expectations and management was open to discussing that situation and it was resolved.

I would recommend them. The coordinator is very responsive and timely in her responses. Our caregiver is very friendly and helpful. It has worked out well. Its 24 /7 care for our circumstance. The staff member does some meal prep, assist with medication reminders, laundry, assisted with bathing/showering, dressing, etc. No transportation in included for our circumstances. They submit a invoice biweekly for billing.

Amazing Care is reliable and responsive. They have been able to offer us in home care for my loved one. The communication with the caregivers and office staff has been good.

We would recommend this home care services to other families.
