My mother looks forward to the fact that they interact with her. They play cards and things she likes to do. In general, they're pretty kind to her and likes the attention. We love the girls that come, but some of them don't have a lot of training.

It's easier having someone around, but we need to cover our own shifts. I feel like it's neutral.

They help me to get dressed, getting a shower, or things like that since I am wheelchair bound. They pay attention to me well, which is something that I really like and would recommend them for.

My caregiver arrives on time. She assists with baths, shopping, and errands. The caregiver is very pleasant, thorough, and does what I ask her to do.

My experience is positive because I get the help I know that I need, so it is very comforting to have someone I know I can rely on. I have not tried any other agencies, but I am happy with the care I am receiving.

She felt people talked too much. My mother really liked them. Sometimes, they would talk about politics and religion, but other than that, they were great.

Things have been shifting with the client's changes and the care is variable. Because it is through the VA, they should be more efficient.

They need to have younger caregivers. It depends on if you have money to afford the services.

Some of the caregivers were not a good fit. They just did not have the skill set needed for the job. Some of them did not seem like they wanted to be here. They would give us someone who we were confident in and then they switched them around.

The three caregivers we have now are very good, but there was one we had issues with. It is not because they aren't doing what they are supposed to be doing. I like that they are very thorough with what they do.

The Visiting Angels in-home care is excellent. They provide non-medical services. They can tell you when the pills are due, but they don't administer them. They don't administer PT, but they could make sure that the patient does their physical therapy with information that's left behind from PT. They could incorporate those. I don't have anything bad to say about them because they're really good. They give me a comforting feeling. It's only been a week since we had them for my husband. They give the patient's spouse a respite by being there. They can prepare light meals and do light housekeeping. Basically, there is a companion for my husband. They help him with bathing, dressing, and things like that. They have capabilities to please and monitor. They also take note of the notes I left with the homemaker. I also get ideas, helpful hints, and resources from them as well.

It's necessary for us! The client is 100 years old and they help her with cooking, bathing, dressing, everything. They're always there for us, and they're very responsive. They can also get replacements pretty easily if a caregiver is sick.

They help her with companionship. It's nice to have someone there on a routine basis to do those things for her. The biggest thing is that they have a lot of different Angels coming in. They're all competent, but it would probably be better if they only sent one.

They were a big help for me because they would empty my top shelf since I was unable to get on a stool. We also gathered all the items that I wanted to dispose of and they helped sort those things out. I was also unable to drive at the time and they would take me grocery shopping. I was totally satisfied with who came to my home. They were just wonderful.

The caregivers make my life easier by taking care of my loved one 24/7. I was doing that on my own, so it is definitely helping me. There is a new policy that they are not allowed to do anything for me only for my caregiver. We had an emergency with a colostomy, and the owner did not call me to check up on me. The team of caregivers are exceptional and that is only reason I am with the agency. The way they overcharge us is horrible. I don't like anyone in the office, and they treat me and talk to me in a horrible way.

They seem to be monitoring the caregiver that comes to the house, and she seems to be really good. My wife likes her. I have one issue. My issue is that I have to give them a seven-day notice if something changes, unless it is an emergency, about someone who is coming.

They should probably train their caregivers better. They don't check on the caregivers enough. They don't know what they are doing. They try to sell you something. They ask me to donate money.

I hired Visiting Angels Gilford and my experience working with the caregiver I have now is great. They're helping me in straightening out the house, they've been doing some laundry for me, they help run errands, and they take me to my appointments. The caregiver is great and he puts in more than he has to. Last week I went to get wound care, and he sent me over to the hospital and made sure everything was alright before he decided to leave. Instead of just leaving, he stayed there.

I have so many pans in the fryer, so that makes it a little difficult. I have good days and bad days. On the bad days, it is hard to get anything accomplished. Right now, I don't have an problems. I have one person that comes twice a week, and that is working out better than having two different people. The one that I have has a vehicle that I can step up into.

They can do things that I just can't do anymore, so it has helped me tremendously. The first one is enjoyable, comes in, and does what she is supposed to do, but the other lady had health issue that were more important than getting done what I needed.

She was able to be with him, and I was able to do something else around the house. I think it's been a flexible situation. Melissa was here the first day, and I asked Mary to help me strip the bed and make the bed. I have back pain so that helped. I liked the flexibility. If I have a question, I can call Melissa and ask if Mary can do this or that.
