I am a current client of this provider

I used FirstLight after hip surgery. I am 41yo female. Christine and her staff were absolutely wonderful in providing me with caring CNA's that were critical in helping me to get back on my feet so quickly. I used them for about 3 weeks, going from full time care to part time care. FirstLight was very flexible and responsive to my needs. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing homecare assistance!

I interviewed this provider

I have known the owner of First Light Homecare for quite some time. She is a very caring person who spends a great deal of time and energy providing the best care for her clients, as well as reassuring families that their family member is being cared for in the most professional manner.

First Light provided in-home care for my 87-year-old mother, who is dealing with early stages of cognitive impairment. All of the women were dedicated, bright, helpful and compassionate. They assisted her in bathing, errands, doctors' appointments, light housework and serving pre-prepared meals. Knowing that our mother was being taken care of during the day (and for some periods, overnights) not only removed much of the burden of caretaking, but also assured us that she was in good hands.
