    The caregivers need to help with the client's hygiene. The agency could improve on their communication whenever there's a change in the caregiver's that will arrive.

    It has made a huge difference. He is getting better personal care and it frees me from having to be the 24 hour caregiver. Its rest for me. The women are very concerned about doing what we want and doing it correctly. They come on time and whatever I ask them to do they do it efficiently.

    The client has fallen 4 times in the last year and we were very concerned about it happening again so we needed some help. We really needed the overnight hours. They are there with her at night to help her get to the bathroom without falling. So far we have had wonderful caregivers and some that were not very good matches.

    The agency could have made our life easier by having consistent caregivers come regularly. For me to recommend them more, their process for assigning workers to patients was not satisfactory because I hoped we would be able to hire someone to come regularly each day and that the same person would come and instead they signed people up by posting the need for workers and having their staff sign up for the time required so they might come once or a couple of times and the lack of the consistency was trouble.

    They were able to follow directions. I had a list and they followed the list. They are not honest. I found out that they had put me off for weeks because of me, and not because they were short-staffed like they were telling me.

    Some of the caregivers didn't talk to him much, they were too shy. One of them didn't know how to use the lift to get him on the commode. They told us they have strict guidelines in regards to COVID care and they didn't follow through on that. The caregivers didn't wear their masks.

    The service was needed, because she couldn't be by herself. They showed up. The things I was paying for was outrageous price wise. They drove her to breakfast and sat with her.

    The service when we had a found a good caregiver helped a lot since my mom has dementia. Consistency is very important. When we are constantly having to go over things and train them, that takes a lot of effort. They should make sure that all time slots are filled. They should make sure the caregivers read the necessary documentation before they arrive. There are great caregivers. There are some that are average.

    I would say that BrightStar Care is very good at what they do, and they are very caring and industrious. BrightStar Care comes in the morning and will get my wife out of bed, dress her, bathe her, and get work done in the house.

    BrightStar Care isn't good care for clients that are dementia-oriented. What my mother has is dementia, and the caregivers aren't very good for that. The CNAs don't have a lot of training in that. I wouldn't recommend BrightStar Care if someone needs help with a client who has dementia. What BrightStar Care really needs to do is to get their caregivers to go through a one or two day dementia client orientation. They just need basic techniques on how to interact with people who have dementia.

    BrightStar Care has really great employees who are good people. Without my caregiver, I would be in a tight place. I can't do anything without her.

    I would recommend BrightStar Care because I like how they come and see me on time. BrightStar Care has made my life easier because if they did not come I could not go to bed at night or get up in the morning.

    The lady that I have now from BrightStar Care is a very thorough and we like her. The caregiver helps me get out of a lot of work that I otherwise would have to do.

    BrightStar Care will work with your schedule. The most helpful aspect of my mother's services is to know that she is eating better now.

    I would say that BrightStar Care does a great job and shows up when they're supposed to! The caregivers have really freed up time so that I can have time for my other children! Franklin takes up a lot of time, so now I can focus on my other family as well.

    I would tell a friend that I like BrightStar Care's aides. BrightStar Care has made my life easier because without my aides I wouldn't be able to get dressed or walk.

    I like the way they screen their employees at Bright Star. We've been using this agency since February. The care we receive is great. The caregiver keeps the house clean, does the dishes and helps with preparing meals. She has a very pleasant attitude and is a hard worker. I really like the way she just goes about doing the work without us having to direct her. She just comes in and starts doing it. I would highly recommend Bright Star's services.
