I have a good caregiver, but they drive me crazy because they talk too much. The caregivers need more training. They need to stay with me.
I would like to see them give the caregivers more training. I had trouble with several caregivers. I need help with getting around. One caregiver left me for a minute. They should have been right there with me. They need some younger staff.

The caregiver spent most of their time on their cell phone or the TV.
They need to have more qualified people and come up with a system so caregivers don't cancel at the last minute.

I think they're fine. They do things in the house for me.
They're okay. There's one person that they sent out that I didn't care for, so I told them to not bring her back and they did that.

There is peace of mind knowing that loved ones are being taken care of.
Right at Home has been very good about stepping up to the plate. If a worker calls in sick, they do their best to fill that position expediently.

We've been a client of Right at Home for about 3 years now. Aside from an occasional hiccup when one of the Caregivers call in sick and don't show up on time, and occasionally RAH will send a Caregiver to fill in for the normal Caregiver who called in sick, that speaks very little English. This is a big problem when our love ones cannot communicate with their Caregiver. Otherwise, RAH has stepped up to the plate for us. So far we've been happy with the services the caregivers provide.
Outside of minor issues, we would recommend Right at Home going forward.

Right At Home was invaluable in my dad's recovery from stroke and heart surgery. Shawna (owner) and Julia (patient coordinator) met with us when my dad was still at the skilled nursing facility. This made the transition from snf to home very smooth. There were two caregivers – Helen, then Marie. Both were very kind and very attentive. They really listened to our needs, kept up with his many medications, blood pressure checks, doctor’s appointments, heating up his food, and left us detailed notes every day. When he first arrived at the house, he was shuffling, struggled to climb stairs, had difficulty getting up off a chair, and tired easily. The PT would come to the house for an hour twice a week, but this wasn’t enough. He needed daily physical therapy to help improve his balance and regain muscle mass. They made sure of this. At the end of 2 months, he was walking uphill, can get up using just his leg muscles, and had no problems walking up and down the stairs. The improvement still impresses me. During the last 2 weeks, he felt so great; he had Marie take him to the grocery store. I think it gave him a sense of freedom again. I can’t thank them enough.

Shawna is extremely helpful and responsive. After speaking with her, she personally came to visit my father's home and to talk with my family. I needed someone to care for him right away and she was able to accommodate me with scheduled caregivers. The caregivers were bilingual and very good. With everything going on, this was one thing I did not have to think twice about. I'm lucky to have found Right At Home to serve my needs.

We hired Right at Home, and it has been good so far. The caregiver is very conscientious and very good to my mother-in-law. The agency itself is really good with matching the people we want. Very friendly and seemed to be on top of everything.

I am not happy with Right at Home. We used them for at least a month. They have this little sheet of paper with everything listed of what they do or don't do, and I reviewed it. I felt they had all the things that I needed, so I went with them. They told me that they would be back, but they never came back, so I never had a signed agreement with them. They sent a caregiver who was good, but there was no way that she could do a transfer. I felt that they lied because I filled out that I need transfers on their sheet.

My wife has Alzheimers but I have been able to keep her here in our home for the last several years. Thanks to Shanina and her wonderful staff at Right at Home. The caregivers were always compassionate, understanding and and well qualified which allowed me to be comfortable in leaving her in their care while taking care of other matters. I give them five stars!

It has only been six months but so far they have been very good to work with. We had problems with the first caregiver and with no problem, she was changed out and given another. Shannon has been great to work with.
