Companion Home Health's staff was very good. We had an RN who came once a week and a CNA who came twice a week to help with bathing my mom. The RN would check vitals and test her blood glucose just to make sure we were still on target. The doctor who was assigned to my mom came once a month. They were great. The nurse's aide on occasion wouldn't show up the day she was assigned and would come the next day, and on occasion they were lacking in the supplies that they were supposed to provide, but outside of that, their RNs were fabulous, and their office staff was incredible. At times, it was confusing, only because I'm the power of attorney overseeing my mom's care, but my sister was living with her, and the staff would get confused as to who they needed to update. The last RN we had though, Shawn, was fabulous. He not only updated my sister with everything, but he also called me afterward and let me know what was going on. He was incredible and a godsend.

We have been using Companion Home Health for six weeks now. My husband's primary care doctor chose them for us. The caregivers seem very professional. They come when they say they're going to come. The physical therapy has helped the most. My husband is at least able to get up and down out of chair and bed by himself more. He is walking with his walker longer distances. The nurse comes and takes his blood pressure and temperature and checks his diabetes. They make sure that his diabetes is under controll. Every two months, a podiatrist comes up for his diabetic feet. At one time, my husband woke up one morning, and his right arm was swollen and he could hardly move it. I called them, and they sent a nurse within a couple of hours. So I was happy that they could come and I didn't to have to pack him up and take him to a doctor or emergency room. Also, they are working with Medicare and the supplemental insurance, and they don't bother us with financial things at all. I like that too.
