When we came home from nursing home and we needed some help, Affordable Home Care was available. We happened to like the company and we setup a meeting. We have the same caregiver most of the time and her name is Ally. She does very well. She's always on time and very efficient. She goes right to work as soon as she gets here. She does very good work. We like her very much and the company as well.

My Dad is still using Affordable Home Care service. So far it has been great with the treatment and care that he's getting from them. They're very personal with their patients. They're very patient and very caring. I can see that my dad is very happy with them.

I spoke with Affordable Home Care and discuss my husband's needs. For the most part, I was very satisfied with them. I just had one minor little problem and I went to Hahn and it was taken care of. I had one guy who was really good specially about putting my husband in the car so I can transport him if i had to take him to the doctor. They handled him very well. They were really good to him and I was happy with them.

I've been with Affordable Home Care for a year or so. Their care is excellent. There were a couple of times when the people on schedule didn't show up but they were on it before I knew about it. The quality of care is excellent. They help me get up from bed every morning. They give me a bath and cook my breakfast. Around nine in the evening they come in and put me to bed. I had zero trouble with them. They're a good company.

My mom saw an ad for them. We were looking for a care for my aunt. I like the way they presented their services and their prices were a little more affordable. The caregivers were wonderful. Eventually my aunt was moved to a hospice home. One of the caregivers came to visit her in the hospice home. She really cared. When my aunt passed away, she went to the funeral home. I just felt very good about the people that we had for my aunt. The management made sure that we have the right people.
