They could have their employees do more. They sit around and watch TV. They don't offer to help unless you ask them to do something specifically. They will wash dishes in the sink but not dishes on the counter. They can improve on getting more proactive help.

They charged me full price even if the caregiver left early, and I couldn't keep track of it or do anything about it. The caregivers didn't do much for me, they just sat around and waited for directions, but I didn't feel well enough to tell them what to do all the time. They need to have better caregivers. Some of them had their own health problems, so they couldn't help me properly.

They have helped me the most by keeping me in the loop of what is going on. They are always on top of things.

Brightstar has helped Robert the most by caring for his needs and as well as teaching us tips that we need to look for while she's not there. One thing I would share with a friend about Brightstar is about how wonderful and her knowledge is very vast.

Since I am not able to bend over completely to pick anything up, they make sure that my apartment is cleaned up very professionally. They are always ready and willing to help with whatever I need, both the office and the caregivers, so I'd certainly recommend them.

I do not have to tell them to do anything, they just do it. I have a lot of cancelations. Many of the caregivers are calling out frequently. They cannot help me if they are not here.

The caregivers have helped the most by providing companionship for my husband, who is in a dementia state. I like the people that come in to be conscious of the needs of my husband, like walking and playing games. I have recommended them to friends who are in need of services.

I have been surprised a couple of times when a new caregiver comes and shows up at 12 but it would help if the agency would call and give me a heads-up about who will be coming for the day. But the replacements they provide are excellent, I just would like a heads-up. BrightStar always makes sure that I have excellent caregivers. Lori who fills my medications is just so pleasant. Everyone is so willing to help.

The caregivers could a greater impact if they actually showed up. They need more communication between the people that work in the office. I had been told a couple of times somebody would be coming over to take care of my husband. They didn't come at all, and they didn't notify me. I was not happy about that.

We have been with BrightStar Care since January 2020 and had no issues until the new owner and new office staff started a couple of months ago. We contracted for 24/7 care for my elderly parents. We were also supposed to have nursing support every 60 days to make sure the care plan was still good, but I haven’t had a nurse visit in the last 6 months. BrightStar started with being unable to cover 4 -5 hour a day, one day left them alone for 7 hours. Usually with an hour notice or staff wouldn’t even show up. After I gave notification that we are moving to another agency they stopped trying at all to fill the final shifts. The office staff of Alycia and Amy has been unprofessional and uncaring.

They could have done what was agreed to happen. I made a list and I do not know if they looked at it. The office personnel was excellent and they were timely and got back to me. But some of the CNAs would do as little as possible that would be done and they would be out the door. Once they finished with what they needed to do they wanted to leave.

BrightStar Care is a very good organization, and once they see the need is there, they try to fix what needs to be fixed. They will do whatever they need to do in order to make things right. I have had nothing but good results from them.

I would recommend BrightStar Care because when my caregiver is not able to come they call me at least a day in advance and they give me a choice about who I would like to have. They'll choose someone and send them and if I don't like them, they will change them. So I don't have to accept anyone into my home that I don't know or who isn't up to my standards. I can't get by without my caregiver. Well, I probably could get by without her, but my life would not be enhanced, it would be diminished. She's a nurse and she'll explain things to me about aging and if she doesn't know the answer, she'll look it up. That's like having another daughter in my house!
