They finally got the right person into my mother and aunt's home to care for them. This is the 3rd person we have had in a month. They could improve with a better match for the needs of the people that they are caring for.

Did not even get to interview with this agency. Person who answered phone was rude and hung up on me twice. All to reschedule my interview appointment for my mother.

They have always gone above and beyond in, not only just the duties they were assigned to, but in other ways to help my loved one as much as possible. I like that they show up when needing to and have good communication with us so I'd certainly recommend them.

My mom is 24/7 and the caregivers have great personalities to approach my mom and bring her out of her shell. They also talk to her and converse with her. The people that take care of my mom are great. They seem like they really do care about my mom.

We were constantly waiting here past the time. We hired help since we needed help and have our own lives. It was a big inconvenience. We live 45 minutes away and had to wait for them when they were late then had to deal with rush hour traffic. Their employees were late almost every day. We had one that even did heroin when she was here. They had to give her medication and make sure her teeth and hearing aids were out. They were not locking the house up when they left.

They have been very helpful. The girls come in and immediately set about tidying up, washing, and folding clothes. They have been good. Usually the gals are on time and most of them have been good workers lately. In the beginning we had a couple of women who came in, drank coffee, sat down, and did not want to do anything else. We have not had much of that lately.

They should not do a surface cleaning. They should be doing the floor, the walls, and the sink. Basically, they could do a more thorough job instead of a surface job. They only come once a month, so if they do the bathroom, they could mop that floor. They should be dusting.
