    Wisdom care partners provided in home care for my elderly mother while she was being attended by hospice. All the staff that we interacted with was punctual, professional, attentive and kind. They were extremely patient with my mother who had difficulty doing anything for herself and was in rapid decline. Each provider was extremely knowledgeable and provided a high level of communication to family members who were not in the home with them. They understood my mother's medical condition and had excellent training to assist with her needs. I did not feel like any of them treated this as a "job", but rather provided an authentic level of care that made a difference in my mother's final days.

    Provider Response

    Dear Ernesto, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your sentiments with us. We truly appreciate your kind words and will share them with each of the caregivers who cared for your mom. I'm glad we were able to help you and your family during this time. Thank you for trusting us to be a part of your mom's care team. Sincerely, Gina LaPalio-Lakin, Owner/CEO

    Highly recommend Wisdom Eldercare for anyone seeking extra support for their loved one. Gina was quick to respond to my outreach, sensitive to our family's needs, and extremely informative. She offers a great network of experienced caregivers and her service is very communicative and reliable. We are relieved and grateful for the service they offer.

    Provider Response

    Thank you so much for your kind words. We are glad we had the opportunity to help your family member during his time of need. It was great to meet you all.

    Wisdom Eldercare provided caretaker services to my wife and myself. for a period of three plus months at the end of my wife's battle with Lewy Body Dementia. At the end of this period my wife had became consumed by fear and anxiety, becoming combative and defiant in many ways. Kaneisha (along with Khamari and others) were timely, and so patient and generous in their dealings with my wife Ingrid during this challenging time. Their kindness was so valuable at a most difficult time. The CEO, Gina, was very professional, responsive and compassionate during the whole process - from her initial visit to us at a rehab center to the kind and caring words after my wife had passed away. Their overall service was excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

    Provider Response

    Thank you, Bruce, for your kind words. My team and I were honored to be able to care for Ingrid over the last several months. Your devotion to her was evident to all of us who came to know you both.

    When my family needed home care for mom with only 24 hour notice, Wisdom Eldercare was ready with the help we needed. The staff was caring and empathetic. They kept mom safe and gave her the guidance and confidence needed to make a transition into a new level of care.

    A heartfelt thank you for rescuing us when we needed immediate 24x7 in-home help caring for a family member in a health crisis! Getting help that fast was a miracle, and Ricky and Tai both did an outstanding job of monitoring the situation, lending a hand wherever they could, speaking up in a helpful way to assist with care decisions, and being patient and kind with all of us in a time of extreme stress. Absolutely recommended!

    Wisdom Eldercare has been amazing to work with. From the time that my husband needed 24/7 care, to the time that he needed just day care, to now that he needs care on a when needed basis, Wisdom has come through with wonderful caregivers. Anthony has been with my husband from the beginning, when he needed 24/7 care until present day when we need help on a when needed basis. He is a professional in every sense of the word, has a wonderful attitude and is just the kind of person that my husband has needed all along. We are so thankful that we met him and that he continues to help my husband. We highly recommend Wisdom to anyone who needs home care.

    We employed the services of two different Geriatric Care Managers from Wisdom ElderCare. They were both highly professional and compassionate. Because our family members live scattered across the country, it was very helpful to have a point person in place to help with communication and decision making. And they helped us, and our mother, all the way through the difficult ending during COVID. They were very responsive and supportive. Best decision ever.

    Wisdom Eldercare has done a wonderful job providing for my father’s 24 hour care. His caregivers are true professionals - timely, dependable, knowledgeable and kind. In addition, the Wisdom Eldercare staff’s responsiveness has been truly exemplary. Whenever there’s been an issue, the staff has come up with a timely and good solution. My family has been grateful to be working with an organization like Wisdom Eldercare.

    Wisdom Eldercare found a caregiver that was perfectly compatible with my mom. The caregiver that worked with my mom provided great companionship and helped my mom get through a difficult time. You can tell she truly cared. The caregiver was extremely reliable and always showed up on time. I highly recommend Wisdom Eldercare!

    Provider Response

    Thank you for your kind words, Michelle. We enjoyed getting to know your mom, and are glad we were able to provide support to your her when she needed it.

    Dec. 28, 2020 I owe my life to Michelle, who works for Wisdom Elder Care. I became critically ill when my husband died. When I understood that I needed help, I fortunately contacted Wisdom Elder Care for this help. The person they provided for me got me through many critical episodes. I ended up needing a Liver Transplant. Michelle stayed with me before, throughout and my final recovery. She was efficient, capable and sympathetic. The office was highly professional a pleasure to deal with. I would very much advise anyone who needs help to use their services. Sincerely, Arlene Brash

    Provider Response

    Dear Arlene, Thank you for your kind sentiments. You are truly an example of how partnering with the right caregiver can be a life-saving decision. We are so glad you are doing well and are thankful to Michelle for her dedication to going above and beyond for you and all of her clients at Wisdom. To life! Sincerely, Gina LaPalio-Lakin Owner/CEO
