"Nina, the caretaker from Brightstar was great. She was helpful, knowledgable, and compassionate. We look forward to building a long relationship with her and Brightstar. Thanks"

"My mother is 77 years old who had about 12 brain surgeries. She was fine for years, but after the last two she had in December she can't walk and she's in diapers now. We worked with OMNI for two months after she came out of the nursing home. They sent two different guys, Chris, a physical therapist and Kingsley an occupational therapist. The nurse, Val, would come in and check mom's vitals while Sheila, the CNA, would help me with bathing mom twice a week. They were wonderful. I bought them Christmas presents because they were starting to become part of my family. They were perfect. "

"My wife was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and I have PSP (progressive supranuclear palsy). We have Amedisys serving my wife and they’re great. They have a nurse coming in to change her foley catheter on a monthly basis. They are very good and are on time. My wife is very happy with them. It is definitely a positive experience. We’ve been a client for more than 5 years. They are truly professional, highly efficient in the healthcare department, and reliable most of all. Their staff is knowledgeable of the very difficult situation and have good attitudes. They’re the right people and good people to us. They are a good match for what my wife needs. "

"My mom moved in with me after suffering a severe stroke and no longer being able to live independently. Interim Home Health Care was recommended to me by a social worker assigned to helping us with the transition. The day after my mom moved in, a social worker from Interim Home Health Care, March, was sent to my home. March was great. I'd already been introduced to many social workers and had lots of services recommended to me. However, March was different. March took it upon herself to contact these services for us and gave recommendations that saved us a lot of money. She knows what resources are out there and she will do anything to help you get them. Interim Home Health Care also provided a Physical Therapist and a nurse for my mom. The nurse assigned to us was Mary Catherine and she too was wonderful! She is very knowledgeable on nutrition and her caring, patient personality was one we looked forward to. The Physical Therapist, Howard, was also wonderful. When my mom arrived to my home, she was not able to walk or even stand on her own. Howard's patience and expertise got my mom's legs strong enough to stand, walk with a cane, and even go up stairs! He got her to a point that made our situation easier and safer. We love Interim Home Health care and would recommend them to anyone. "

"We used Compassion Home Care of Illinois for my mom post hip replacement surgery. Compassion Home Care of Illinois replaced a company that could not provide reliable care coverage, and they really stepped up to the plate! I called them the day before a holiday weekend, in the evening, and at 11AM the next morning we had replacement care givers. We had the same two care givers the entire time we used their service, and they could not have been nicer or more caring. They put the other agency to shame with the amount of work they did with and for mom in the short time they were there – they never slowed down! I can highly recommend Compassion Home Care of Illinois for anyone needing live-in care. We will definitely reach out to them again if we need more assistance. "

"We have used Emily for a number of years. Harriott helped with both my father and mother. Emily is very responsive, concerned and focused on finding the right fit for my mother. During a difficult time I was pleased with the service provided."

"this is a great agency with good, professional and compassionate staff thanks residential "

"The caregivers at Riverside Home Health Care were okay, but they could have been a little more interactive. They bathed my grandmother, fed her, and they changed her beddings. Majority of the caregivers took good care of her, and she felt comfortable with them. I would suggest they interact with the family more, and not spend too much time on their phones. Overall, they were a good company. The management team; they were really great. If you have any problems, the management team intervenes. If we have problems with the caregivers; they replace them, and made sure someone better comes to our home. They would not stop until we find the right caregiver for us. The caregivers aren’t so great, but the management is doing an awesome, wonderful job. "

"When we were looking around for an assisted living for my grandmother after we found out that she had alzheimer's, we took a look at Little Mary's. We really liked, as did my grandmother. The staff were friendly and happily answered our questions. My grandmother really like the people since the really made her feel like family. The unfortunate part was that they are still rather small and while my grandmother was willing to live at home with a care provider, since their home base was so nearby, the lack of the medical facilities she might need caused us to look elsewhere. The staff was friendly and competent though, and if the conditions had been different, my grandmother would have happily worked with them. "

"Anchor Home Health’s caregiver is great and comes in three days a week. She is working out well and doing laundry for us. Everything is good. "

"I’m grateful for them, after receiving a total knee this home health called me before I went in to the hospital and assured me that my after surgery care was set up, I felt really well cared for and the physical therapy was really really great "

"THE NURSES AND THERAPIST REALLY HELPED MY MOTHER AFTER HER SURGERY. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS AGENCY TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR A AGENCY. "

"I had a very hard time understanding these people and communication was difficult. Care was hit and miss."

"We used Option Healthcare for over a month, but it did not work for us; a lot of the time, they didn't have anyone available. They kept my mother clean, and my mother was comfortable with the caregivers, but the availability was poor; maybe they don't have enough people. There were certain times that we needed, and they had to find someone to come out. We need something concrete. There was one problem with the billing with them. We had sent them a check, but it was lost and we had a big problem with that. We mailed the check, and they didn't get it, so they pretty much said to us we will discontinue the service because they didn't get the check, which is sad. "
