    They are able to do things for me that I can't do anymore. They could get me a team of the same people that I see every week instead of them having to cancel a lot.

    It depends on who they send. I've had them for three weeks and they still have not been able to send me a schedule for who's coming and when. Even though I've emailed them directions on how to get to our house; they don't seem to give the directions to the caregivers. The caregiver was almost an hour late because she had the wrong apartment number. It's kind of frustrating. They need to improve communication.

    I'm in a hospital bed and am unable to walk and when I was in the hospital for surgery they were very short-staffed. They did not have anyone to help me get to the bathroom. They put a diaper on me. So the caregiver has to help keep me cleaned up I also have a colostomy bag and they help me with that. They help me with hygiene. To help with post-surgical needs. I would recommend them because I have been pleased. The reason I chose them is because they offered two-hour care sessions. Some companies have a minimum of four. I don't usually fill the entire two hours. There was only one other company that I talked to I was in a rehab hospital and when it came time for discharge I knew I would need care at home because I had a wound that needed care. A lot of companies needed four houses but I chose Brightstar. They lived up to their end of the deal.

    It really helped him feel more comfortable with being at the house. He can't move around as easily as he used, and he wanted to have someone have eyes on him, it made him comfortable.

    The caregivers we have now are outstanding. My mom has a comfort level with them. When we started out we were both learning about each other. They should find a way to ensure that their employees are reading about the care and understand it before they come on site. We use 2-3 caregivers now. Jessica and India are outstanding. We did go through a few bad ones who did not show up or were late. Originally it was not good. Lately we have found a stride.

    There were two caregivers that were consistent and they were excellent. I was very pleased with them. At first, I found that it was very hard for them to be consistent with the people they sent into my home. The office staff was always polite, but they weren't consistent with what they would say. I think the office had a lot of turnover with people.

They have been courteous when I had my home service. Everything was hunky dory and copacetic. The nurse was professional and did her job, She was sociable and had a nice attitude.

    They help the most by cooking his meals, bathing him, and putting him in his wheelchair. They do everything for him all day every day. I like that they are very knowledgeable, they show up on time, and they are good.

    It seemed like they were short staffed. The caregivers didn't seem like they were prepared or knew what to expect when they got to my loved one's house. They didn't send out the same caregivers. That was the biggest problem. The caregivers weren't trained well for my loved one's specialized needs.

    They help the most by making sure that if an issue comes up, they take care of it and get the help my loved one needs. They do light housekeeping, but they don't seem to know how to do it right.

    Their initial visit was two ladies and we asked about the process and they told us we would see about three to four different caregivers to take care of my dad, but at this point, I've seen over a dozen caregivers, and we have a unique living space, but when the come, they aren't told how to get to the building. They come in through the wrong door, and I call and complain about it to them, but this very morning they went through the wrong door again. They haven't done what they told me they were going to do.

    It has had more of an impact on my mom. They should do more to entertain my dad, such as reading. They bathe him, feed him, and take care of him. There have been times when I have had to contact the director to tell them that some of the caregivers don't do things and others do.

    It has been the most frustrating group of people I have ever worked with. I have expressed this to them, and they aren't saying anything. When I ask the CNAs to pull up the care plan, they cannot pull it up and they don't know the care plan. It is very frustrating for my dad. We are still getting new people. The nursing director never calls me to interview me or to speak with me. I had to call her and that was three weeks into my dad's care.

    They needed to be on time. There was a lady that was always on time. When she didn't come the ladies said they had trouble finding the place. They didn't allow themselves the time to get here. The time before it was lacking, but this time it was good. I just used them for transportation to get to physical therapy. They could be more timely. I missed a couple of appointments because they were late.

    They do a really good job on the scheduling part, it's just problems with the nurses and needing more permanent ones. Their main problem is they go through nurses constantly. They can't keep nurses. In two and a half years, I have been through six or seven nurses.

    There were two caregivers that came in that were awesome. They respected my loved one's wishes and paid attention and actually spent one-on-one time with them. The others didn't do hardly anything. We even had some that would disappear. They could have better communication between caregivers coming to the house and the office staff.

    They take care of him with baths and that kind of thing, and she helps with the housekeeping and cooks some for me. She does very well and is very quick, I've had some problem with the bookkeeping where they've overcharged me one day where the person didn't come up. I had asked her not to come and they charged me for it. Other times they've overcharged us they've fixed it right away, but that's the only thing really.

    Those that have come here assist my wife and I. They're very considered, very well trained, and know what to do. Some of them are better reacting to help my wife to the bathroom. Once they know what to do, they start immediately. They have excellent personnel for us. They charged me $99 dollars at the hospital to do an assessment to see if I could pay. I just wrote them a check for lots of money and was upset with them for charging me that much. However, I am very happy with the services. The caregivers are competent and well-informed.

    I guess they had a hard time finding someone that could do wound care for my husband. They decided they couldn't find the wound care and the workman's comp went through another company, but they were coming out for PT/OT, but once they found out that they couldn't do the wound care, BrightStar said they would have to find someone else to do the PT/OT too. The first couple of weeks they had someone out here caring for him during the day when he wasn't able to do things for himself. So that was helpful.

    I would recommend that someone interview the specific caregivers assigned to the relative prior to them working with that patient. Express to them your main concerns on why you are hiring them and what your expectations are. I do not live near my parents, so they basically provide support for my father so he can have a break. We haven't had them quite a month yet. We've had some issues with being on time.

    One thing I would say is that the companions that come seem to really care about what they are doing and have a lot of experience. For me, it has been great, and for my mother, it is the same. For me, it has helped me increase my life outside my mother because I felt like I couldn't have a life or any time to do anything else. It has also helped my mom because it has provided more care and patience than I was able to give her.

    I was disappointed in the level of service provided by BrightStar, and I would definitely not recommend this company, especially if your loved one has dementia. Because my mother could not remember what tasks she needed help with, she got very little assistance. I had provided a list of tasks, including 3 times a week bathing, throwing out old food, checking that she had taken her medications, making sure she locked her door, was wearing her medical alert necklace, light housekeeping, etc., but this list was not given to the various aides that showed up. (During this period when BrightStar was coming six days a week, a cleaning company refused to clean her bathrooms because of smeared feces on the floors.) My mother would dismiss the aides after half an hour, saying she “couldn't think of a thing for them to do.” (This was not adequately communicated to me. I only found out when I installed nanny cams in the home.) The company went through a series of bookkeepers, and as soon as one had learned the ropes, she was gone, only to be replaced by someone who had to learn the process for submitting invoices and logs to the insurance company for reimbursement. We chose this company because they would agree to a 2 hour minimum – my mother's preference – instead of the standard 3 or 4 hour minimum other companies require, but I regret the choice. After my mother moved to assisted living, the company without authorization debited money from my mother’s bank account to pay for past services that I had hesitated to pay without receiving the logs for those dates. (The insurance company won’t reimburse without receiving the daily logs.) I had requested the daily logs for those invoices, and the company never sent them to me. Imagine my surprise when I notice over $800 taken from the account without either my knowledge or consent!

    The only thing I would change was that I wish there was only one person my mom saw, instead of seeing someone different every week, because she has dementia. I understand because of availability that that's how it's going to be, but it makes it harder for my mother. BrightStar Care is very flexible and they help me. The nurses are always engaged and call if my mom doesn't answer the door or her phone. BrightStar Care definitely helps me and my family out a lot. I'm actually active duty military and I'm across the U.S. Knowing there's a second person besides my father to help my mother helps because My mom likes to go shopping and get out of the house. It helps to have another female. It's another set of hands and eyes to help.
