    They have my experience positive just by the work the caregivers. The caregiver that was with my mom really worked fast to get her to a nursing home. She stayed with us until I had to take her in.

    They should help her more with exercises instead of the basics. She is very alert, she feels like she could do more. With Mary things are good. Sometimes when we request a substitute it takes a long time to find one, and then they are not very qualified.

    When the nurses come, before they leave, they stay for four hours. They only have to watch over the patient. With feeding the patient or giving his medication, that we do or his parents do. We want somebody, like a nurse, who can look after him. With those they have sent it has been good, but there has not been any consistency in it. Previously, one nurse is to come and attend to the patient, she would come from ten to two. She knew the patient, she knew what things she had to do. Then she quit the job and now we are getting three or four nurses. Sometimes a new nurse comes and we have to teach them what to do all over again. We have called BrightStar Care and ask them to send one nurse over and over again.

    They need to be trained more, especially if they are young. They need to go over the detailed care plan when they come. I don't think they read all the notes. It should be a requirement. Most of them know what to do. They try their best to match a caregiver to a person. When I get the right person it is amazing. They come through. I can depend on them most of the time.

    They can have someone who had minimal reading on how to deal with a person who has dementia. The poor girl my mom had by the time it was over was just standing. She was so afraid of my mom. It wasn't a good experience for her since she didn't know. She wasn't prepared. They can have trained professionals. My mom has dementia and they didn't send anyone who has dealt with someone with dementia.

    I'm extremely disappointed in BrightStar. I don't like their choices of caregivers. They have no experience. They've never seen a catheter before. There were numerous times that no caregiver was coming, and I had to call the office and tell them that there were no caregivers there. They had to try and scramble to find somebody. I was having two at a time because they had to transfer me. Sometimes they only had one caregiver one coming, and everything fell onto them.

    I had to fire them. They needed to send people who knew what the job was that needed to get done. We got a lot of people who were just house cleaners, and the clothing they wore was inappropriate. I had to send people home cause they were dressed inappropriately. I still had to pay for the full three hours, even though I sent them home almost right away. The management needs improvement. They need to become more aware of their processes and the people they send in. They send very unqualified people when we required qualified people.

    I couldn't say enough about the care I get. It has been wonderful. I think it has made me happier. I feel more like a lady and a person of quality. I feel like part of the community. They are on time and punctual. They do more than what they say they are going to do. They are exceptional.

    I have finally found an agency where they can get people to show up. Having them here gives me more time to myself. My only issue is that my main caregiver doesn't English very well. They are easy to talk to and they are responsive to different problems.

    They are not very helpful. The person we finally got this week is helpful, but the other ones were not helpful. They need to improve communication, a way to track if they show up, and a way to see if someone is going to show up. They need better quality of who they hire. The communication can be improved. I have no idea if someone is going to show up.

    My caregiver is outstanding in how she cares for my brother. She takes the time to sit there and play with him. She will even wrestle with him if he wants to wrestle. I went through a couple of caregivers, but the one that I have now is outstanding. It took a little while to get the one that would be appropriate for Leland.

    They were able to help my grandma get her showers done. I would like them to have more communication with me. Sometimes the caregiver didn't come in, and they didn't notify us.

    If they come to work, I would like to see work done, and I don't want to see entertainment. I don't want to condemn anybody or hurt anybody's feelings. If you come in and are hired to do a job, then they should come in and do work. I don't need company or entertainment. I'm not pleased with them. There are three girls that come here, and one is 24 years old. She's like a little bumblebee, and she's very intelligent. I would recommend her to anybody that I cared about. The other two, I think their intentions may be good, but not everybody have the same talents. I come from a background where I was taught to be clean.

    We have not had a bad caregiver, but they need to show up every day. They never let us knew when caregivers don't come. They are lacking in the office over there.

    Some of it was good, but most of it was pretty poor. They were caring, but they were uneducated and would bring their baggage to work. If they say they are going to send someone they need to send someone.

    One thing I can't do is clean my house myself. Having a clean house where I can walk around without a lot of things on the floor has made a big impact. They took a long time getting me a good caregiver that I could get along with. They just recently got me one and I've been with for a month. They didn't have anyone for the longest time. The first caregiver sat around a lot or walked outside without me knowing why.

    He only had one day of care because they decided he was too much to handle and they just walked out. A worker came into my home and I got a call of an incident. My window broke and BrightStar said he had attacked a worker. I thought she had all the skills during the employee orientation but it didn't go well and she didn't have the skills I thought she did

    They do my bathing and they put on lotion. If I hurt too bad, they help with my shoes, socks, housework, shopping, cooking, medication, and taking me places. I love my caregiver. They are really really good and they are my angel. My husband died, so I have to sell the house, and they do everything to help. They sent out a few before them, but they didn't work out, but that is because we smoke and have a dog.

    They'd have a great impact if I was assured coverage for the things that I need. The most frustrating thing is not getting caregivers set up. They have a lack of staff.

    The other day I had an appointment and it was around the time that a caregiver was supposed to come. The person that came I had a lot of problems with. They asked to come back and I agreed that they could, and then they didn't show up. It seems like I am finding that the caregivers just want the money without doing the job.

    I would prefer an older caregiver, like my previous one. I would like a caregiver that is somewhat older. I have a good caregiver right now, but she is young and doesn't have a lot of experience. I would prefer the caregiver I had before her, who was older.

    I guess they have to stay because it's company policy. I like it because they can get here. I dislike that the caregivers don't leave when the work is done. They want to hang out until the time's up and it makes me nervous.

    There was a lot of gossiping about the clients. They took pictures of their clients and that is not okay. They would have to find replacements for their caregivers instead of leaving me hanging.

I would like them to send me caregivers that do their job well. I feel like I am a training facility, the caregivers should know how to do their job before they come.

    They have no back-up caregivers, and I was left alone on the bed all day. They did not call me either to tell me that no one was coming. They are not experienced with my care. I have had a few caregivers, and one of them did not show up at all.

    I have a very nice lady that comes out, and she is business-like. My dad is happy, and I feel pretty good about having somebody else being in my house. The caregiver gives my father a shower, does his laundry, and has abilities that I don't have. Because we have BrightStar Care, I am able to go back to work.

    We use BrightStar Care for respite care, and usually we know our schedules well in advance. We had planned a lot of trips in the last little while so I would call and tell them the dates about a month in advance and they would take the dates down. Then I called back to double check that everything was all set and for whatever reason their system does not allow us to book that far in advance, and so we drop out of the system. They usually help with meal prep, get her medications, and help her with housework.

    I love the company of the caregiver. They are very nice, but they aren't very good about doing house work. Usually I will have to go back and do everything again. They can cook, though. I need more help. The caregiver could just look around and see things. I ask them to clean things and days later they will still be there. I need someone that is more in tune to what is really needed to be provided.

    BrightStar Care could improve the quality of the caregivers they send to my aunt's home. BrightStar Care could be more consistent in the caregivers they send and inform them what they are there to do for the client because some think there are just there to watch tv.
