We have been using First Care for the longest. My mother loves the girls they sent. They were able to manage and find steady aides for mom. She has Alzheimer's and they take good care of her. They're excellent! I'm very grateful to have them for my mother. They have been so much and great help.

I came across First Care on the internet. I like them but I don't like the fact that right now I only have one girl thrice a week. I've been begging them to give me another girl for the other 3 days and I don't get it. This is something I don't like about them. The one girl I have now is really great. She's a great person.

First Care provides good service. They send an aide who does a good job. She helps me with housekeeping including food preparations for me. I have them for 3 years now. My caregiver is nice and very generous. I really like her.

They were the first agency that contacted me. I looked them up on the internet and what I saw seemed to be what I needed and so I hired them. The agency was very nice and was able to answer all my questions. They sent a nurse over to evaluate my mother and they also sent a very nice home health aide.
