The 10 Best Home Health Agencies for Seniors in Akron, OH for 2025

"My 83 year-old father fell and broke his leg. He has congestive heart failure and takes several medications, which have kept him alive for more than 10 years. His doctors worked very hard to get his dosages correct and my father is very dilligent about taking them. After breaking his leg, he was sent to Stow-Glen for rehab, to live for possibly several weeks. To begin with, the food is absolutely inedible. Some of it even literally unrecognizable. Since he has been there, possibly 2 weeks, his health has been deteriorating, to the point where we're afraid for him. What we've found out is that they are messing with his medications and dosages and withholding some of the more important ones. He is not there for health issues so there is no reason to fix what's not broken."

"I like Wadsworth Pointe. It’s a beautiful place. It stood out because of the whole atmosphere of the place. The rooms were very nice. They did not allow cats or dogs, but they have a huge dog in the main lobby. It’s a therapy dog. The activities were about the same as the rest of the places. They have trips, and they have the weekly activities. They also have a library. "

"My Mother Janet received exceptional care in her last three days of life. They made sure she was comfortable, well looked after and did a great job keeping me informed. The facility has a peaceful atmosphere and is beautiful!"

"Mercy Medical Center Homecare comes in and takes care of my husband three days a week. The therapists have been really on the ball about helping him with his physical problems and his speech. They leave it up to us to let them know if he needs it. An occupational therapist, a physical therapist, and a speech therapist come in. It's a good setup. They're so nice, to the point that he looks forward to them coming in. They tease him, and he teases them back. They work hard with him."

"I used Cambridge Home Health Care for about a year. The caregiver that I had did not know anything about how to cook and clean, so I basically had to train her. But, she did very well as far as personal care 101 is concerned. "

"We chose First Choice Home Health and it worked out fine. The care is just fine, it's just that they let him eat whatever he wants. He really should have a dietician controlling him. "

"This company is not reputable. My mom has been woking with them for a couple of years. They can't keep good workers because they don't pay well no do they treat the aids or clients well. They often lie to us telling us that they have an aid scheduled but then no one shows up. When we call in to find out why no one showed, they blame us by saying we misunderstood. "

"I wasn't happy with Caring Tree Senior Care. A woman was supposed to come and bathe my father twice a week, she showed up, but has not come back. The RN that was supposed to come once a week on Wednesdays, it took three weeks before she showed up, and then she showed up two Wednesdays in a row and then she didn't show up again on the Wednesday she was supposed to show up, but then she showed up on Monday unannounced. The aide took my father somewhere she wasn't supposed to take him out. I was just not happy at all with it. Their physical therapy is great though. "

"My sister is getting home care right now through Cleveland Clinic. I'm very happy and satisfied with the service. They're still taking care of my sister and they're doing a great job. My sister has somewhat shown improvements. She's going to have surgery, so they're giving her care before the surgery. "

"We used Home Helpers for my husband. He had a therapist, and we had a girl come in to help me with the shower. We also had a nurse that came in twice a week. The girl that helped with the shower came in twice a week, as did the therapist. They were excellent, very professional, and took their time with my husband. They explained to him why he had to do some of the things he had to do. When he could not get in and out of the tub, the girl came out, washed him and made sure that he was good and clean. They were all excellent, and I would recommend them for someone who needed the help. I was very pleased with them. "
