They come and help by giving her what she needs and what I ask them to. I like that I have had no problems with them.

They provided consistent care, so my mom could get familiar with the caregivers, and they were super good with her. I liked that they were easy to work with, and they were available 24/7.

If they say they're going to be somewhere or do something, they do it. They are always on time and they do follow-up calls. The service is amazing. The people are amazing from start to finish.

It is very friendly and efficient, I do not have to say what needs to be done. I like that they send the schedule with the emails, and I like that they do not change the caregiver every other day.

Just a little more communication with the patient. As an organization they need to have better communication. They need to let people know ahead of time who is coming and going. There are also people in the past who have needed to be trained.

I really did not see anybody until they came out every 6 months to reevaluate my mother. That is all that they were supposed to do. She did not get anything else. Nobody came out as a weekly or monthly thing. No nurse came to check her. The young lady came in to help my mother with taking showers and whatever she needed so it was good.

This review is shamefully overdue. Bright Star Home Care is the best at what they do. I've had nothing but positive experience. I'd particularly like to compliment Jenny, who is beyond wonderful! She is so on the ball, thoughtful, proactive and thorough. For instance, she had visited me just once. The next time she arrived, she had purchased cleaning and other supplies we'd just touched on in that first visit. I mean, weeks had gone by and she remembered and went to the trouble to acquire the items! She is a credit to Bright Star and a good example to the rest of us!

It's hard to say. It would be different if I was getting the service that I need. I would like to have an aide that I can count on. I'm very dissatisfied with them. I'm supposed to be getting 11 hours a week, but recently I'm lucky if I get one person a week.

It has helped knowing who is going to be there. It makes us more comfortable if I have to leave, knowing she is fine. They can improve by having more of a steady amount of people coming. There are too many different people coming.

I don't think there is much anyone could do to help make my life easier, but they do what they can to help me. If I ever have to call, they call me back if they don't answer right away. Sometimes, I don't even have to wait. The nurses that come to help me are excellent. They know me, they are friendly, and you can tell they know what they are doing. I am comfortable with them.

The aide comes and helps my mother bathe and that's fine, but the light housework is where the problem comes in. We've had women going through her things, but with an elderly woman with Alzheimer's you can't change anything. They've gone through her drawers, closets, the kitchen, and changed things around, and that's caused a problem. I'm not satisfied. My loved one is a 91 year old with dementia and Alzheimer's. We just went through the 8th caregiver since signing up with BrightStar Care.
