    They have been good about giving him baths and asking him what needs to be cleaned. They are discreet at keeping him covered. They are easy to work with. The caregivers are good. Some have not shown up at all.

    The agency should have a steady aide for the client, they need more training. The agency should have staff that is more experienced, caregivers that are knowledgeable and willing to do the job in the field.

    I didn't have them for long but they put me to bed, made sure I had my meals, helped me in the shower, and did other usual everyday things for me. I was satisfied with them in the time I had them, as the caregivers were good at their work, so I'd recommend them for those caregivers.

    The caregivers could have a greater impact if they could just be more engaged. The agency needs to improve the people actually doing their jobs. They need to be on time and to be more engaged with the client.

    They are actually more of a burden. They need to hire better people. We have 1 or 2 aides to show up in a 5 day work week. I don't know them by name. They are unreliable.

    They could do better at taking initiative and looking ahead at what needs to be done. We have had people who didn't give them a bath in the time they were here, which was the only thing we requested. The main problem we have had is with the scheduling, as people won't always show up when they were supposed to or show up when we cancelled, so there seems to be miscommunication there.

    They are helping him get back to his pre-surgery state by providing all his ADLs and aiding with mobility. He has his own helpers, but we needed additional care, so we hired them to provide that, and thanks to all their help, we have even been able to cut back on caregivers. They have been real good to work with, as I am the nurse coordinator responsible for my client and have used them my entire career. They are very thorough on scheduling and following through on everything, so I've had no issues with them.

    They do what my mother lets them do. The company writes down what we need them to do, and they send that with them, but sometimes we have to tell them what to do. I have not had any services for a week, and they did not call me to let me know what was going on. They started off better.
