It’s just the kind of place you want to stay.

We’re proud to offer Emporia and Southern Virginia residents in-home care services ranging from CNAs and PCAs to skilled nurses who can provide a full gamut of medical support. Our advantage is that we offer flexibility and custom services to meet your needs, whatever they are.

    It took some pressure off of me as the primary caretaker. I liked that the services were complete and professional.

    They prepare his meals, wash him up, and do the things that he needs. They could make sure we have consistent help.

    They were always on time. I like that they can always get somebody.

    They were very good. They escorted her from room to room in the hospital until they left. My Dad had them escort them to his eye appointment one time, and he said they were wonderful.

    He gets up and goes to the bathroom himself. Some of the workers don't understand when I say that he needs to have help when going to the bathroom. I've had two bad experiences with workers that I do not want back again. Other than that, they are good.

    They have helped my mother-in-law with daily tasks. She couldn't feed herself, bath or comprehend what to do next if there wasn't someone there with her, and it allows us to still work. The communication between the agency and the representative for my loved one needs to be improved.

    I can't use my legs, so I need extra help. When they come to the house, it looks like a dump. They don't clean. They could clean when they come.

    They need to make sure they are billing properly and paying the caregivers properly. I have called them to make changes in scheduling and the billing is poor. They are underpaying the caregivers. When I told them about changing the hours, they were still charging us for the full hours.

    If the caregivers could just come in and do things well, everything would be good. They are okay. They notify me of things that are happening, and sometimes they don't.

    They should have listened to me as a patient and straightened things out with the agency. The nurse is friendly, but they can't adhere to my schedule. With that, I can't recommend them to anyone.

    There are a lot of things that he can't do for himself so it is helpful to have someone there who can help him because we are not there to help during the daytime. We usually get help when we need it.

    They make sure I have someone here with me. They try to send me caregivers compatible to me.

    They help him. I'm still doing his care, but a caregiver comes. It helps me a lot because I don't have to bathe him every day. They could give us more time.

    They have made things easier for me because they sit and talk to me. They try to help me. I like that the girls come here, and sometimes we talk.

    They don't need any help doing anything because they know how to handle the patient well. They are prompt and on time.

    When they come, it's excellent. They have helped my uncle the most with the routine. Someone is there, someone helps him with his medicine, and someone makes sure he is stable. For some reason, we have been through three or four different people. I was hoping we could have the same people so we could get a routine. Nobody has come for a couple of days.

    They could be providing transportation for me to go get groceries and things. They only provide service in the home. There are other places I have to go. When the nurses come to my home they don't tell me the date or time that they're coming. I like to set aside that time for them, but they don't give me a heads-up.

    They help me with my son and it gives me a break to do the things I need to do. Everything seems to be going alright. The aide does well.

    Sometimes we don't have a nurse if the regular nurse isn't here. We need to know ahead of time that we don't have a nurse. When the regular nurse isn't here, they need to have someone fill in because that's not always happening.

    The caregiver did his am care and was there to relive me. They came in so that I could get some things done.

    They explained the new procedures to me and they went out of their way to show me how to do what was needed. They were prompt and they came on time.

    They could have better accountability. Their responsibility and professionalism were poor. They could have looked at all the problems and fix something.

    Care Advantage sometimes doesn't have enough caregivers for me because if a caregiver calls off sick, they need to do better at getting a replacement for me. They have been a disaster because they can't always provide a caregiver for me.

    They have met all of my needs so far. I couldn't do all of the things I need done without them.
