    Senior Helpers has been improving the quality of life for my mother for several years now. Everyone connected with the agency has been most responsive and flexible as our care requirements change and change again. They have gotten to know my mom on a personal level and really understand her specific needs and priorities. Their service helps me tremendously reducing stress and time I would otherwise have to spend managing the different care givers. They are also very effective at dealing with the insurance company that provides long term care benefits. This is an ongoing challenge and another critical factor in successfully caring for mom. Senior Helpers could not possibly do more in this regard as I have had to successfully appeal decisions denying mom's coverage and constantly furnish documentation as my mother's care "re-assessed". Having them on my team and trusting their capabilities makes these battles less time consuming and contributes to the success we have had. In summary, this agency has really come through for my family consistently for several years running.

    Have a clear understanding between the care recipient and the care giver exactly what are the responsibilities and expectations of each party. Over time, strong bonds are formed. Substitute care givers don't always rise to those expectations.

    My mother has been a client of Senior Helpers for the past five years. She is quite difficult to deal with and the agency has been very helpful and patient in dealing with her.

    I cant begin to tell you what Senior Helpers meant to me and my family. From the initial phone call to arrange services ;to being assigned a companion for my mom, the staff were completely attentive to the needs of my family. They helped me to create a schedule and a care plan specifically tailored to my mom's need . It is the Boutique of Home Care Services. Thank you for all that you do !
