The 10 Best Home Health Agencies for Seniors in Orange County, FL for 2025

"Nurse on call provides in home nursing visits, assistance with bathing and medications and rehabilitative exercise. From the administrative offices to all of the care providers who come to assist my 92 1/2 year old mother-everyone is caring, professional and also understands all the stresses and challenges the caregiver (me) goes through and always has kind and encouraging word and resources to share. I have been a "volunteer" caregiver for 20 years while raising my child and working in a demanding career. Nurse on Call is a lifesaver. "

"My mother had a wonderful caregiver, but the business side of the company was not good. They were very bad about calling me if her caregiver was not coming and they always said they would get a person to come in when her regular caregiver could not come, but they never did. Now her caregiver is leaving and I am looking for another company. "

"I was very pleased with the care my father got with Interim. The office staff and caregivers were wonderful and caring. "

"When I found I needed services for my ailing mother who is just barely a senior herself, I was told about Senior Helpers services from a friend. They came out for a visit to find out what our needs were, and what I was looking for in the care of my mother. The caregiver that they provided us with was absolutely fantastic, she was like one of the family, and although our needs were for a short period of time, and not wishing my mother to be in need of services again, I would defintely contact Senior Helpers if she were to fall ill again. "

"I had Maria Home Health Services for three to four hours from Monday to Friday for my care because I am totally blind, and I need a lot of help. Sometimes their caregivers don’t come, and they don’t call me to let know that nobody would come. I have so many complaints about them, and I am not happy with the agency. "

"My mom is using BrightStar Care. I'm very happy with the service they provide. They're keeping my mother safe so she doesn't fall anymore. The caregiver is very nice and we have a very good experience with them. The billing and scheduling so far, is good. The communication is outstanding."

"Excellent!!! Donna, Jimmy and David are top notch professionals Excellent bedside manner, genuine care giving! "

"The services were to give her a bath, to watch her for four hours, and to take care of her needs like bathing, feeding her, taking her out, and doing stuff like exercise. The only thing I got out of them was to give her a bath. They would ask her if she wants to eat, and she will say, "No, thank you. I don't want to bother you." My mother has dementia, she doesn't know, and I have explained to them not to ask her if she wants to eat but to feed her, and they didn't do that. They always asked her. They asked her if she wants to take a bath; she says no. So I was not very satisfied, and they were not reliable. They will call at the last minute saying that they cannot take care of her, and they will send somebody else, and I didn't like that. And then, on top of that, the lady would sit around watching TV with my mother. I was not paying her $23 to sit around and watch TV with my mother. She didn't have much initiative, which was one of my problems. I thought that I shouldn't have to be telling her every day what she had to do. I thought that she should know what she should do. I wasn't very happy at all. I wouldn't recommend Absolute Home Healthcare. "

"When I called, staff was very helpful, lots of information provided. Caregivers were awesome! Prices were reasonable. Thank you, my parents are very happy to have home health care!"

"As an out of town family member, I needed someone to take care of my elderly mother who was discharged from the ER after a fall and was returning home to live alone. Prior to her fall she was completely independent. I needed to find someone that could assist her in her home with everyday activities as she was unable to do very much for herself while recovering from the fall. In Home Health Care was ordered by the physician but did not cover the Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) which are routine activities people do every day without assistance. There are six basic ADLs: eating, bathing, getting dressed, toileting, transferring, and continence. I was referred to BrightStar Care by a Social Services Case worker in the hospital. I reached out to BrightStar Care (Greater Volusia County Area of FL) to speak to someone and the Director of Operations, Masha, answered the phone and answered ALL of my questions, which were comprehensive, as I had need and experience in the past for other loved ones with these types of services. Masha arranged for her Director of Nursing, Noah, and Scheduler, Terah, to come to my mother’s home and the four of us sat down together and discussed specifically what BrightStar Care could do for my mother and what our expectations of BrightStar Care were. My main concern was that I wanted to be sure that any caregivers assigned to assist my mother were not only competent but trustworthy! Masha does this type of in- home interview with her team members to determine the needs of the client as well as assess the client’s physical and cognitive needs in order for Masha to best assist her, with feedback from Noah and Terah, to pair up what BrightStar Care hopes to be a good match up for both caregiver and client! Noah even went to the trouble to purchase, hand deliver and install on his own time, a hand-held shower attachment which he assured me would greatly benefit not only the assigned caregiver but my mother as well when she returned to independence! The next day, my mother was first introduced to Wendy and thoroughly enjoyed her! Because Wendy had a prior vacation planned that was to take place during the period of time my mother needed assistance, Masha assigned Katie to cover for Wendy while she was away. Katie came out on day two to assist my mom. Fortunately, I was present when Katie came to meet my mother and assist her with the plan of care that was implemented and reviewed by my mother, myself and Noah. Katie immediately began to take care of my mom like she was her own mother! What a lovely, caring spirit she displayed. I familiarized Katie with what needed to be done while my mother went to bed as she had been to her PCP that morning and was still in considerable pain. My mother’s PCP ordered some x-rays for my mother and while I was with Katie and my mom, the PCP office called me later that morning and informed me that my mother needed to be taken directly to the ER again as the x-ray had revealed a life-threatening condition that required immediate intervention. I informed Katie that I was sorry and that I had to take my mom immediately to the ER. Katie, without hesitation, began to help me get my mother out of bed and into a wheelchair for transport. Katie continued to reassure my mother that everything was going to be okay! Katie ensured that should it become necessary, we collected adequate items for a possible overnight stay, for my mom. I felt so comfortable having just met Katie and seeing her caring nature and straight forward and considerate spirit, I asked Katie to remain in my mother’s home and continue to do the cleaning, laundry and grocery storage we had previously discussed that needed to be done. Katie had already begun preparing a meal for my mother and stopped and cleaned up and bagged up in the freezer the remainder of the food products that needed storage. I told Katie to lock the door on her way out. Katie gave me her cell phone and asked me to keep her updated as to my mother’s outcome. She was genuinely concerned for my mom. What a wonderful care giving spirit! My mother was admitted to the hospital and I no longer required the services of BrightStar Care as my mother was scheduled to discharge to a skilled nursing facility upon discharge for rehabilitation. I returned home to a cleaned up home! Even payment of the bill was simple. My mother had authorized any charges be applied to her credit card so even payment for services was effortless! I would HIGHLY recommend this company for care for a loved one should they need ADL assistance on an hourly, daily, weekly basis or even 24/7 care. They are very reasonably priced and provided superior care and services in the short time I interacted with both the team leaders and their caregivers! Thank you BrightStar Care! "
