They are there for us when we need to talk or if we need something. I like that everybody is very helpful, kind, respectful, and they do their best to make sure that everyone is happy.

The caregiver helps me out with cooking, cleaning, bathing, and all my house care needs - alongside helping with my exercising, which is very important. I'd certainly recommend them, as everyone there is very caring to you.

The agency has given me a break with some of the things I had to help my husband with. I like that the caregiver is conscientious, and I assume the other caregivers are like that too.

When it is good care, it has been a huge relief to me. We have had a lot of caregivers and it has been challenging. Some consistency would have been nice. We also have had instances with medications going missing.

There are 3 senior citizens in the house and even though there is just one getting care it is reflected on the others. They show they have a lot of care for the caregivers. They find replacements when someone can't make it.

The agency communicates pretty well and they try to meet our needs when we have an issue about something. It depends on what caregiver we get because it varies some are great and some are not so great.

We needed a caregiver for my Dad. He sometimes can be cranky and demanding. I was nervous this would be hard getting consistent care for him. I was pleasantly surprised and relieved when we had been assigned caregivers with understanding not to take things personal. They come everytime with a smile and a great attitude and willing to start a new day with my Dad. Thank you for training compassionate caregivers!

Increasingly, the caregivers started to help with more and more things. It's been a tough time because COVID has caused the pool of employees to dwindle. I think that can cause quality to suffer, but I found that wasn't the case. I think they did the best they could with the hand they were dealt. The quality of their caregivers was always good. Their staff answered the phone every time I called.

If it is good they would be average but it depends on how they train their staff. The caregivers need to understand what the specific job is. When they first come out they fill out a form with what the caregiver is supposed to do. But by the time the fourth caregiver did not know what to do on that list and told me that they did not have to do the things that I was asking them to do. I had explained to the agency my concerns and things that I wanted, but the fourth caregiver did not know what to do. They could have consistency in caregivers. They could do better training with their caregivers. I have pursued other agencies because there is not a consistency in the caregivers. One was good, but then the other one was not that great. They could have more follow up when they bring in a new or substitute caregiver. The substitutes do not have the same information that the other caregivers have. Some people come in and don't know what the job is and we have to retrain them.

As far as what the caregivers do, there's nothing. The caregivers themselves are excellent; it's the office staff that ties their hands. Their office staff needs to be improved, and their scheduler doesn't communicate when they send people to my home. That makes me kind of angry.

She keeps my dad motivated to do his workouts. She prepares the right foods so he is not diabetic but pre-diabetic. They monitor and change his diet based off his blood sugar. They have enabled my dad to still go outside. She will help him do things by motivating him to be active. They are great at communication. They seem to be well organized during COVID.

I can't drive anymore because of my vision. It makes a big difference for me to get out and about a couple of times a week. I am able to see people I know in my neighborhood and different merchants. There's nothing like personal contact with the people at the beauty salon and the grocery store. It lets me be social. I like how they work to find a good match between me and the caregiver. I like how they treat the caregiver. I respect a company that respects their employees. I've had several caregivers, and they haven't sent me someone that I didn't like.

The girls were pleasant and nice and my mom enjoyed them. It was a good service for a while, then it got to where we had other members of the family who stepped on and we could do it ourselves. One thing is that they wanted a 48 hour notice if we were going to make changes. However, they made changes regularly if someone was sick or late. There was always an excuse. I haven't ever dealt with other facilities like that, but they raised the rate in the middle of our contract.

The caregivers were polite but a couple of them liked their phones more than anything else. Some of them didn't know how to cook. There were three really good caregivers out of the ones that came to the house. Some of the caregivers followed the procedures. I was doing a lot of sitting and walking but I couldn't really do any work. It was good having them here. They protected me from myself.

Personally I've had very little contact so it's hard to answer. When I called them and let them know that my loved one had passed away they were really nice about it and they thought highly of him. They did seem to do a good job in his apartment because it looked like it was in good shape. I don't think he had them for long but the cleaning services helped him a lot and made his life easier by them helping him with dishes and things like that.
