BrightStar Care Pinellas

They ask what I want more to be done and there will be several things I do require. They do what is evident and ask about the rest. They do whatever you want and need.

The caregiver always had a smile on her face and knew what she was doing. I like the friendly caregiver that was sent to my house.

I started out-patient because I didn't think that in-patient was doing what I needed it to do. I liked how they were always on time and friendly.

I would have preferred to have people show up. I did not have regular care. People did not show up, they showed up late, or had to have a replacement.

We only had one lady come out two or three times. I would use their services again because I know they're professional.

It was terrible. I had giant gaps in my therapy. They were behind on my doctors orders.

I am not ill anymore. They took care of all of my needs.

He is able to remain in assisted living with their support in the evening hours. They are communicative, on time, and the staff is highly skilled.

They have healed my wounds. It is hard to judge, and we had some rough spots initially, but the personnel has been well qualified.

They are great. She comes in and makes sure I am in the shower and do not have a chance of falling. It scares me to get out of my wheelchair to get in the shower. She makes me feel very comfortable. They are on time to the minute and come whenever I need them. They take care of everything I need. I am left with no questions.

They need to be on time to help. I don't like the scheduling.

They did not provide good service. The could improve the quality of nursing care. They have poor customer services.

I like that I'm treated like a person not an appointment or a number. I like their consistency.

My wife has dementia and is bedridden. I'm here to make sure she's taken care of, even while they're here. The girl takes care of her, which I like.

The services helped me to fully recover from a broken leg. They are courteous and punctual.

They have been able to tolerate her with no complaints. No other agency has been able to do that. They were able to work with difficult patients.

The laundry helps the most, them stripping the bed and such. They are pretty reliable and they respond when you call.

Mostly it's very helpful. I don't know how many new people they've sent and how many of them got lost. We have our good days and our bad days. Everybody I've talked to in this area and dealing with health agencies, it's all the same complaints. They don't pay their people enough money. We have been able to weed out the good ones, but I can't even begin to tell you how many bad ones we went through. We've had people not show up. It's not because of the pandemic. We have people that just don't show up and then the agency doesn't have anybody to cover them.

They get me in and out of bed. I like the aide that I have.

They got me to somehow want to do my exercises and improve. I liked the physical therapist and the physical therapy has been great, they were like a cheerleader.

They help the most by doing a lot of things that I cannot do since I am disabled. I like my aide because it worked out that we get along.

They help with the bathing. Their caregivers are good.

She had Alzheimer's and lived by herself, so it enabled her to feel at peace knowing someone was with her. They were responsive, and the person was polite and respectful towards my mother.

It's allowing her to be at home. Otherwise, she would have to be in a facility. It makes her happier to be at home. They go above and beyond to make sure they give the best-quality caregivers. There's always someone in the office to speak to. They give you a family feel.

We needed other services like cleaning on top of visiting services, but we never got there. The scheduling was the most frustrating part. it was the reason for us to discontinue services. One of the issues we had was that we wanted the same person every week. We never did get this.

Caregivers don't always show up on time & know how to fudge the system if they want to leave early. The scheduler Melissa can be very rude at time & John quit so...she will argue with the client if they want to change a caregiver who isn't doing the job. Robin s/b notified.

My loved one is extremely satisfied, and it is handled very discreetly. The nurse is excellent, and the person in billing is great. The director is excellent.

The only thing that they do is come and take blood and do a dressing change on my picc line. She's very attentive and makes sure that I am okay. They're very on top of everything! Today we had a miscommunication, and the head nurse came out to my house and took care of everything right away.

My loved denies the services, but that's just her. The caregivers are able to explain why they're there. I like the agency's communication because they're accessible 24/7.

They kept her safe. She is very confused so safety was big deal. They do try to work to get you an aide even on short notice.

Everybody could set their clocks to the same time so we do not have late comers messing up everybody's schedule. They do not seem to communicate with clients.

They could have had better personnel. Their service was okay, but it was nothing that stood out.

They do the morning wake up with her, which gets her day started. They are willing to work within the accommodations and limitations of my mom's insurance.

They helped the most by helping her walk. A lot of times, they wouldn't show up and it would frustrate my mom.

They get her up, in the shower, dress her, fix her hair, and they get her going. It makes her feel better. The caregivers are very nice and knowledgeable.

I know my mom is in good care. I have used them in the past, and they are outstanding.

It was really positive for her to get used to being in the building. They really do work hard to have great aides for the residents.

My caregiver helps with port access. I like my particular caregiver.

They were available, when I called them, and they came the same day. I needed instantaneous help, and they provided that.

They have helped me the most by taking care of my mother-in-law. I find them very trustworthy, kind, compassionate, and caring.

I'd like the caregivers to have a clear idea of what their role and responsibility is. I'd like them to do laundry. I'd like caregivers to be trained consistently so they provide the exact same care.

It's one less thing I have to worry about. When they come in and help him in the morning, it gives me a chance to do the things I need to do. They're very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. They do a good job.

They are able to get me out to go shopping. The caregivers are very friendly and they help me a lot.

He doesn't have to go to the hospital to have his treatment done. They're easy to work with. We haven't had any issues.

They could give more help with dishes. My life is easier because my husband feels better. They could be friendlier. I think that they are efficient and good at what they do.

They empty the trash, assist me with my shower, and make the bed. I like that they try and send a caregiver to me when I expect one.

They administer medication, reheat food, and make sure he doesn't fall. Every time I talk to one of their people, they have a positive outlook.

He's being taken care of. I don't have to get someone to help him all the time because the services are being provided. I like that it's local and close by my dad.

It's good because I have peace of mind because they're always there. They text me to let me know how the night went. They also leave a written message for the day shift so they know what's going on. They do what I request. The actual girls who go there are there at night, so I haven't met them. I only have mom's feedback. Mom is very comfortable with them, and they are very professional.

One caregiver was always late, making it hard for other family members and their schedules. They do a good job with the care giving, they follow up and do everything that we ask them to do. *******There is an N/A question without any feedback.

They have helped him organize his house. His house is improving. The quality of the care has made it a positive experience.

I need somebody regular that can come in and work without me following them and telling them how to do everything. I've told them that I need a regular person to come because I can't explain every time how to do things.

We do not use them that often because of the incident where the caregiver fell asleep. I would like BrightStar Care to get better caregivers. One of the caregivers fell asleep on the job.

The services have made my life easier and they've made me happy. They show up every day and I'm satisfied with the agency.

I would like for them to have more steady staff members who are also on time. I would like to be able to know that someone is going to be here and be on time.

They are efficient and reliable. She is getting her pills regularly.

It was very frustrating that when I called them about our caregivers' poor performance, they gave me the run around. I received a bill for the services instead of them trying to help solve the issues. The experience was very bad, it gave our loved one high anxiety and took more time out of our day to try and resolve the many issues.

They've been friendly. They could be a little bit more responsive at the office. We've only had one bad caregiver; the rest have been good. They do light housekeeping, which is most helpful. It would be helpful if they could drive to appointments.

The caregiver is the best. They remind me of the medication I need and remind me to eat. I don't remember anyone being like that. The caregiver pushes me to do the right thing, even the exercises I am supposed to do. I can't even explain how good the caregiver is to me.

The nurses were always on time. They came every day to give me my IV.

We had BrightStar Care Pinellas. They said if I wasn't happy with one of the caregivers, they would be glad to send different caregivers. However, I had one problem with them. I wanted somebody from 8:30 to 8:30 so that I would be free to go to do whatever I wanted to do. One afternoon, the caregiver's house went on fire and she had to leave and they did not send me another person until 9:00 at night. Otherwise, they filled in at the last minute and it turned out OK. The caregivers were fine. They helped with personal care, showers, transfers between chair to wheelchair or lift chair, chair to toilet, chair to bed, and wheelchair to bed because he is non-ambulatory.

I have been with them for four weeks, and it seems like there is someone different every time. When they come it's good. It's too soon to tell how they could have a greater impact on my daily life.

The people in the office are extremely nice. We don't use them consistently. It helps my mother and makes sure that she gets to her appointments.

They need to put their clients first, have better customer service, and call when a caregiver is not going to show up. A call to the client when there is an emergency is mandatory. The services were very helpful, but they didn't do catheter care like our new agency does, and they didn't do lifting. I really needed the respite care from the services, but when they didn't show up, I didn't get that respite.

I needed someone right then, and one of the managers came in to work when another caregiver could not come help us. It was above and beyond. Had they not been able to help me with the care that I needed, I would not have been able to go home, so they were able to impact my personal life a lot.

We are very happy with it because the caregiver is always on time and does what she is supposed to do. She is also very sociable. I am very comfortable. The caregiver does pretty much everything I need to do which increases my quality of life.

I would not really want to recommend them. I do not like that they keep sending different aides every week. I want the same ones. I would like more calls from them when the aides are not going to come. I do not like waiting for them when they never come.

BrightStar Care doesn't seem to care about my problems and didn't want to work with me. I didn't get the care that I needed from BrightStar Care.

BrightStar Care's nurses are great! They go out of my way to accommodate my schedule. BrightStar Care has made my life easier by keeping me out of the hospital and at home with my family.

BrightStar Care's nurses are very good, punctual, caring, and kind. BrightStar Care has made life easier by getting me back to school.

I would recommend BrightStar Care because they have been reliable. We absolutely adore the nurse that we have. My son is healthy because of BrightStar Care.

I would recommend BrightStar Care because they have always helped me when I call with a problem. BrightStar Care makes my life easier for me by doing things so I don't have to do them.

I would recommend BrightStar Care because the workers are great. BrightStar Care has made my life better by doing things I can't.

The caregivers from BrightStar Care are usually on time and conscientious. Everyone from BrightStar Care has been good to me. The services have helped me get stronger and get better.

I would tell a friend that BrightStar Care is very good. BrightStar Care has made life easier for me by helping me to get around.

Our caregiver does what I ask her to do. BrightStar Care helps get my husband get dressed, makes the bed, and takes him for a walk. I've only had BrightStar Care about two weeks. It's hard to say how much difference they make.

They try to be accommodating. Overall, they mostly look after his personal hygiene.

I never know what time that the caregivers are coming. One thing that BrightStar Care has done to make my life easier is doing things that I cannot do myself.

BrightStar Care is a good option if someone needs care. BrightStar Care makes my life easier by helping me to wash my hair, shop, and take me to doctor's office.

We liked the people from BrightStar Care. They were really nice and worked well with my loved one. BrightStar Care was good with my loved one.

BrightStar Care's nurse is very professional and does a good job. BrightStar Care has made my life better because I feel I am getting better care and I am feeling better now.

BrightStar Care is so good to me. I love them. BrightStar Care helps me get around because I can't do it myself.

The caregiver could be cleaner, and the caregiver is just a baby sitter. The caregiver helps do dishes, and help me go to the bathroom.

I enjoyed BrightStar Care coming because they helped me and my wife. Having BrightStar Care took a lot of pressure off of me because my wife was overextended. They also taught me knew exercises and motivated me to do them.

BrightStar Care doesn't communicate with me at all and sometimes the caregivers that they send are less than professional. The services help me around the house and give me someone to talk to.

Our occupational nurse is really good. BrightStar Care is there for me when I need them.

BrightStar Care is not reliable. BrightStar Care needs to do the whole job and not just a half job.
