The 5 Best Home Health Agencies for Seniors in Polk County, FL for 2025

"I’m using Helping Hand Nursing Services. Because of the people they’ve provided for me and my current caregiver, I wouldn’t trade for the world. I called them on a Friday, they set me up, then they came on Monday. When she came in that morning I said, “Your job is that you’re here, and he’s your total responsibility. You give him a bath every day, fix his meals, and keep the general area that he’s in, meaning his room, the kitchen area, the family room, and the bathroom, clean." Plus, she does the laundry for him. She’s been with me since the middle of November and has become part of the family. She’s very nurturing, very caring, and fits right into the family. They have been very good. We have another caretaker that they send us when she takes a couple of days off, and she’s just as caring and giving. "

"The caregiver comes to my home 3 times a week for 4 hours. She is friendly, arrives on time and signs in with the company. She is dressed in scrubs, neat and clean, prepared to do the agreed upon tasks which include helping with my shower, dressing, and assisting with household chores. She is independent in doing these without direction. She makes good suggestions, helps by going with me to assist in shopping and running errands. Takes suggestions well and has the ability to follow through with those suggestions. Good match with me."

"I have MS. I am extremely disappointed with my services. They do not return calls. If you need a Medical Social worker which they have on staff, don't waste your time going through the trouble of getting a referral from you Dr. Heartfelt only has one medical social worker and she only works part-time. I met with her once and she promised several items she would be able to get and almost a month later I have yet to hear from her. I called the Supervisor who assured me she would have the SW return my call, that was 3 days ago and yet no call. I went through a lot of trouble getting referrals from my doctor as requested by the agency one for the home health nurse and then advised I would need another referral for the medical social worker on staff (part-time) I am very disappointed as I am Wheelchair bound and the assistance I was in need of that the Medical Social Worker said she could assist with just never happened attempts to call always went unanswered even after contacting the supervisor "

"We use BayCare for my wife. The doctor gave us a prescription and Medicare has taken care of it. We use them off and on since 1st of January because some of the time my wife was in the hospital and in rehab. When we do need their services, most of the time we have them for about twice a week. We have a therapist and a nurse. They are a good match for my wife and I don't see anything wrong with them. "
