My boss' husband used them for his mother. They have been great and I don't have problems with them at all. The caregiver has been very good and they get along very well with my father.

The care from Comfort Keepers has been awesome. My sister found them. They are very cooperative in getting mom help, and their price is cheaper. My mom is so picky and she has actually taken to the girls that she's sent over. I was really surprised because mom kicked out her caregivers before from a different company. She's staying with Comfort Keepers now since October without any complications. Mom has enjoyed every caregiver that's been there. They do whatever I asked them to because mom has memory problems. She can't remember what the person is supposed to do and she feels bad that she didn't have enough for them to do. I gave the caregivers a list and that's what happens every time. Mom is absolutely happy. I love Melissa, she is phenomenal. She's the only one that ever communicates with me about everything. No one else's bother to communicate with me the way she does. We had a few emergencies and Melissa has been right on the ball.

Lisa was a primary caregiver for my father, John. from December 28, 2012, to February 1, 2013. During this time, she cared for him on a 24-hour basis several days each week. I want you to know that she performed her duties in a professional, efficient, and comforting manner. My father benefitted greatly from her kind and compassionate care. Lisa has developed great skill in working with the elderly and managing their medical care. She carefully records the patient's habits, the doctors' instructions, and the therapists' exercise regimes, which provides a complete picture of the patient's experiences each day. Together, her records give a thorough description of the patient's progression and recovery. Lisa is trustworthy and diligent. She efficiently performs all of the tasks expected of her and always goes the extra mile to care for the patient. I would recommend Lisa to anyone looking for expert care for a loved one. She would be my first choice of a caregiver for my father if the need ever arises again. Thank you for having such an exemplary employee.
