They need nurses who are going to be on time.
They cannot keep a nurse here to help me. They need to have better nurses.

I've been shut in due to my knee and I was getting depressed but with having these girls coming to help me, they have really brought me out.
At first, I was upset with the first girl, i think she was just too young and didn't have the training necessary. I've had about 5 caregivers after her and they have been excellent.

She really didn't need much help and she didn't care for the service. We didn't have the same person each time.
The services were okay. I wouldn't say one way or another.

They could make my life easier by sending us the caregivers they promised.
I'd like for Care Advantage to improve by sending caregivers more often when they should be.

I have had quite a few caregivers come, even though I told the office that I don't want new people.

All the aides didn't know how to give a sponge-bath properly.
It's been pretty easy communicating with Care Advantage and I haven't had any issues.

The services should be more attentive. I have had issues getting caregivers to come out to me lately.
This agency should show that they care about me as a patient more.

My wife is doing well mentally with their help.
They have been working out fine. I don't know that much about the services other than that they have been working out good.

It's made a big difference. They help out and go above and beyond. They feel like they're on your team.

It is a big burden to take off my shoulders.
We have trouble with the agency because their caregivers are not available on the days we need them. They cancel, and the agency doesn't call to let us know.

I would have liked it if they did what I asked them to do.
Nelly was great, the other ones would show up and just sit, they wouldn't understand.

The caregiver doesn't call out, we had a lot of problems with that before. Hayley is excellent. On the days that Hayley is there Mary is in much better spirits.
Hayley is absolutely wonderful and goes above and beyond to take care of my mother-in-law.

Their ability to do things that I am not bale to do has been very helpful. Like lifting and other physical things that he needs.
We had a very bad start to the services. When someone has to leave they need to have coverage in place so I do not have to fill in and cover for them.

They need more quality caregivers.
There isn't much they can improve on until we are over Covid. They are very tight on caregivers. They cannot provide the level of care they did for my mom until after Covid. They would fix him breakfast.

There is always someone there. If his caregiver can't be there that day, they call and let me know in advance.

I'm able to go out and not worry about my husband. The caregiver spends a lot of one-on-one time with my husband.
The caregiver is very kind and polite with my husband, and she comes on time.

If I have to go some place, it is just the comfort of her walking outside with me especially if I have the cane. She stays close enough so that if I need to grab her shoulder, I can.
I like the fact that my aide and I get along really well.

They always find me someone if I don't like a caregiver, and they'll find me someone else, even if it's for only one day.
They're very friendly, they take care of you, and I have never had a problem. They're good about if you don't like someone, they'll change them out.
BARTHOLOMEW C
It's the reason I'm getting along because without them, I wouldn't have anyone right now. I appreciated so much that I went to them and asked for my caregiver, and they hired her because she was working with me before she was working with Care Advantage. The only way we could have her was if she worked with a care agency, and they helped make that happen.
I would like them to increase the salaries of the caregivers because I had them here a year ago, and I thought the bill I got at the end of the visit was high. I thought the caregivers had higher salaries than they do have.

The caregiver is great! There is nothing that she can't do, and she has no problem doing anything.

The aide that came worked with my mom and had a lot of trust in her.
I plan on using them if she comes home. If the aide can't show up, they have backups.

They could answer the phone when I call, like in the afternoon they don't answer hardly at all.
They need to get their act together in the office. It's poorly managed, and there is only one woman who is on her game all the time, but she is from the Harrisonburg office and everyone seems to be lacking in their abilities to be efficient.

I believe that my caregiver needs to be talked to and told to not just sit for two hours before she decides to do something. If I am sleeping in, she sits in the chair or is on the phone. One of my issues is that I have to tell her what has to be done every day.
I'd like my worker to come and do her job. She brings her personal life into her job almost every day.

I need a caregiver that can do other work, such as wash my windows, and I would like to receive those services through Care Advantage.
The company keeps me informed about what is going on and things like that. They will also call and check in on me to make sure everything is going alright.

I looked forward to them. They knew what needed to be done and they went right to work. They went to the grocery store and cleaned. I didn't have to tell them what to do.
They were wonderful. They were good help and went about the work like it was their own home. I was sick and had a hip replacement, so I couldn't do anything. I needed the help and I needed them.

I've had a lot of different people, so that makes it difficult. I wish they could find one or two people to be with me all the time. When I click with someone and get to know them, it helps because they start to know my health.
The only thing I can really say I dislike is sometimes they do not send someone out on the day I am expecting someone. They can't get someone in place so I am left alone on that day. Other than that they are a good company. But I have been alone before and I didn't have any money. They only give me 6 six hours, and I need more hours than that.

I guess I'd say compared to not having any help, it was at least something, but I usually had to direct them to tell them how to do things.
As long as they were coming to see me, they were fine, but I wouldn't really recommend them. They would come and sit down and then I'd have to tell them what to do.

There are certain things that I find difficult to do myself, and they make it possible for me to live with relatively little assistance.
When somebody doesn't show up, I am unable to get in contact with the office to get a replacement.

I couldn't do without them. They make sure that I'm up and dressed in the morning, that I get my morning medicine and coffee, and that they feed the animals. Not only do I have a whole bunch of physical problems, but I also ended up being re-hospitalized. I'm down to just my left hand, and I'm right hand dominant. They're doing everything that my right hand can't do. They make sure that I'm stable and safe. They help me after seizures, and they drive me to doctor's appointments. They keep me straight with the date because my memory only works at about 50%.
They are flexible, and I like the quality of the aides. There is an ease in talking to the office.

They have taken a lot of stress and burden off of me.
They are friendly, but some of the help can't do everything. For example, the one that was sent to my father's home was very pregnant and was limited with what she could do.
