Home Helpers of Boise, Idaho

It doesn't make much of an impact. They clean my windows. It is very convenient when you are my age and older. There are some things that I can't do on my own. It is nice to have someone come in and do them for us. She is very pleasant.

It allowed me to get out of assisted living. It made me more able to live independently. I would recommend them anytime. I feel it is a service that people don't know about, and it needs to be shared.

It gives me peace of mind and helps my mother out. They have been here when they are supposed to be. They have been on time, and the lady who helps my mother likes her.

I can't think of anything they could do to make it better than it was. I had pneumonia, and when I got back from the hospital, they helped me get better. They were there when I needed them and are good at what they do.

He needed to take his medications properly because it could be bad if he didn't. They were easy to organize and fast. The ladies were courteous.

She is very compassionate and helps me do the things that are necessary. Sometimes they change the hours when my caregiver comes, so I have to change my appointment times.

They respond when I call them, other than that one instance. I like the response I got. On Saturday night a couple of weeks ago, I fell down in a parking lot. I laid there for fifteen minutes with mobile help on the phone, they didn't know what city I was in, let alone the location in the city. That was the only problem I've had.

I would have felt better about having my house clean. I would have known they did a job and that my house was clean. They needed to do more of the household cleanup. They needed to do more of any of the housework. They talked more than they did work.

My caregiver is on call for me. Whenever I need help, she is there ready to assist. Their people are caring and go above and beyond by giving exemplary service. They don't need to, but they do.

They clean my room and change my bed once a month. I have them once a month now, instead of twice a month like I used to. They are on time and do what I ask them do.

They could stay all day, but I couldn't afford it. Overall, they've been average. The gal I have now is great. I've had some that have not been as good. She's very industrious and she works. I feel like I'm getting more than my money's worth.

She does a good job, and it's helpful because I can't get out and shop. They just shop for me and put the groceries away.

She does a real decent job of cleaning. They could maybe clean the bathroom more.

They could have someone available to come work for me. The office staff could have a better attitude. They could improve on having someone on hand if my caregiver can't make it.

They mostly do a little cooking and housework. I have pretty bad vision, so it's helpful. They've been pretty helpful. They've sent out people for me.

They could give me more hours when I need them. They work with me.

They made sure she got her medications. It was a big help to me to make sure she had her medications.

The impact is positive because they are very friendly. I have already recommended them to my neighbors. Sometimes it is average, and sometimes they are very outstanding. They are very helpful.

I have to have help getting out of the shower and getting partly dressed. They are willing to do that. The ones that come to my house visit with me and help me do the things that I ask them to do. They are excellent.

It seems to be really helpful for her. They provide companionship and get her out in the community. I would like to see their invoicing improved.

They probably really helped. They helped with basic needs and by having someone watch her and help her out until the end of her life. Mike was very friendly. The nurses were very helpful and friendly.

They keep my loved one talking, occupied, and in the moment. There isn't a whole lot not to like about them. They are helpful, talkative, they let me know what is going on.

They could have a greater impact by listening better. I would like to see them showing up when they are supposed to.

I was trying to put on a pressure hose and the girl came in and helped with that which was great. I like the caregivers because they are good.

I am hoping that I'm not going to need them much longer. They help me the most by reading mail and cleaning for me. I like that they are doing great. It seems like they care more compared to others that I've had.

I use them because I need them. I am blind and need them to do things. I've never had them do anything that I didn't ask them to do. They are really good to me.

We cannot live without the services. She is able to live more independently. I never have to worry if my mother-in-law is being taken care of.

They need to have caregivers who work rather than just sit to get a good recommendation from me. The caregivers haven't been very good because they don't show up for work, or they have been late on several occasions.

They have helped me the most by keeping my place clean. I like everything about the agency. They are wonderful, come on time, and spend their time being productive.

They are here because I know that he will walk around and go to the bathroom on the floor if no one is there. Some of the people they send are very shy. The manager has come out a couple of times, and he is excellent.

They help me with getting up and started in the morning. They are reliable.

Just being there to take care of things when me or my family couldn't was good. I had her in comfort care the whole time, they treated her very well, and they went above and beyond.

Things have become significantly better because she has limited access to travel and it is important to have someone take responsibility for her so she can go to places safely. They are punctual and on time, my mother loves who she has contact with.

I don't have to do everything by myself. Things get done around here that I can't do. I get pretty good service from the woman that works for me. She's pretty good and she does what needs to be done without me having to point it out to her.

I have my socks put on, and that is all I have them do for me. I would recommend to others if they needed it. I wish that the caregivers could dress a little better. They used to wear a uniform so I would know who they are, but now I do not always know why they are here.

They are really helpful, and they keep up with things around the house for me. I would tell my friend how good Home helpers is to me.

My caregiver is great and treats me with respect.

They could be more consistent. I would like to have the same caregiver come, and they're all over the place with their scheduling.

When they are here it is a lot easier to get things done and when I need them I can call them. I plan my schedule around when they are here to help me. I would recommend them right off. They have done a good job for me.

They've allowed me to go to work while someone is taking care of my mom. They're helpful and responsive. The providers I have are very good.

They have helped me the most with everything that they do for me to help me post surgery. I like that they are quick to answer and they do the best they can. The people that they have been sending to help me have been very good.

She was here on time and she talked with me, I told her to check in on my husband. I would tell anyone that I am satisfied and that I like them.

I trust the caregiver, so I feel I can leave my loved one with her. The companionship has helped the most. We had to keep trying until we got the right caregiver. They are always there when I need them, and they have great communication.

Right now, I never know if they're coming or not. No one showed up today. The girls are new so it's a learning process, but they're anxious to please.

The caregiver is a nanny, so she is wonderful with my kids. She does little extra things to make sure everything is easier for me. The manager came out and did an interview with me so that she could select a caregiver that would meet my needs.

I would like them to fix the scheduling issues. They move the caregivers around for no reason. However, I do like that the people they send are friendly. They listen to what I need for my loved one for the most part. They are patient as well. They help me so I can go do what I need to, while my loved one is being taken care of.

I think it is a tough industry when it comes to personnel. We really enjoy the owner and I'm sure they are always up and down like every other businesses. It is tough to get quality, good people. It is a need, not a want. My loved one was very weak. There were good people and there were bad people.

The lady that served us was very nice and thorough and did everything we expected her to and a little more. They gave me a couple of hours to go do things that I needed and wanted to do instead of just taking care of my wife.

The caregiver seems to be friendly and easy to get along with and is there to help my mom. My mom is not really happy where she is and it doesn't matter where she is she will be unhappy.

Home Helpers was very helpful. The services made my loved one feel better.

I suppose the main thing to improve is the turn over. They are just there to help her eat and work. They really haven't been there any more than to be a companion.

My mother-in-law seems to like them. I know the owner personally. They have run some errands for her, for something that she needed right away.

Home Helpers doesn't get back to me on any issues. They started out well, but since their change of personnel, communication has been an issue. My mother has dementia and lives in assisted living, so I used to have to drive to go help her but now they help her.

Home Helpers is very good about coming on time, and staying for their whole time. They're very courteous and helpful. There are a couple of caregivers that I've had some problems with, but several of them are excellent. Home Helpers helps me get up because I can't get up on my own.

I enjoy the work that Home Helpers does. They have been here to help me and they do a good job. Their caregivers are friendly and sociable people. The services from Home Helpers have made life very easy for me. They pick me up to take me to appointments.

Home Helpers' staff is very committed to helping my dad. Home Helpers has helped free up my time.

My family has been working with Home Helpers for the pastyear. They have been wonderful to work with. The communication between client and the office has increased tremendously. My caregivers are amazing and are always looking out for me.

Home Helpers sends helpful caregivers. They do whatever I ask them to do. Home Helpers fixes meals, washes clothes, and other things that I don't have to ask them to do, but they do them anyways.

Home Helpers is good with my mother-in-law. However, the communication is spotty with them. Home Helpers made it so we do not need to check up on my mother-in-law all the time.

We've been using Home Helpers for my mother-in-law for about a month now. They come in, make her food, and do anything else that she wants. She likes the caregiver. So far, we like them, and they're there when they say they're going to be there.

I'd tell people that the Home Helpers' caregiver I have is very thorough. The service has helped the most by giving me relief to have the caregiver come in.

Home Helpers is very knowledgeable about working with the elderly, and they are very polite. Home Helpers has had a positive impact on my mother by helping with exercise and there is a friendship.

I would tell a friend that Home Helpers have sent caregivers to help me who are very congenial. Home Helpers has made life easier by helping me shop for groceries and get my prescriptions for me.

Home Helpers sends me workers that are consistent and the same every time. I like these workers very much. My mother can no longer take care of the client anymore, so the service that Home Helpers provides helps her and me. I do the cleaning, but the workers take care him.

Home Helpers has good quality caregivers who are able to help. However, I do think they don't have enough people working for them. I have a lot of health problems, and it has been helpful that Home Helpers takes care of things for me.

I am completely satisfied with Home Helpers. I like that they have flexibility. Home Helpers has made life easier by being understanding and compassionate with me.

I have recommended Home Helpers to others before. I have told those people that Home Helpers has been very good as far as I am concerned. My caregivers have been very prompt and as far as I am concerned that is very important.

I would tell a freind that Home Helpers has an awesome manager who is very helpful. The services have helped the most with keeping Ruth organized and giving her medications.

Home Helpers sent us a caregiver that didn't have any training. I can't even let them do the client's laundry. I have had very little contact with Home Helpers and nobody has gotten in contact with me asking how the caregivers are doing. The caregivers can't do much, they just goes on walks with the client, but I can't let them do much else. Their cooking skills are limited, but they make the client oatmeal and the make the client's bed. Home Helpers could have the caregiver they send be trained on how to do things. I also think that the office could check up on how things are going. They only did the annual review.

Home Helpers has been helpful. Home Helpers has made life easier for me by doing things for me that I can't do.

I have already recommended Home Helpers. I like the caregiver that I have now. She is helpful and happy and does everything I ask her to do. Even when I don't tell her to do something, she knows what to do. She gives me an extra lift. I do not walk around very well and have a dog, so the caregiver gives the dog walks for me. She cooks, cleans, does laundry, and waters my plants. She does all kinds of things for me.

Home Helpers has been the best care agency that I have worked with in the Boise area, so far. Home Helpers does everything that I need to have done.

Home Helpers is easy to work with, the caregivers are on time, and they follow the proper directions and needs that I have. The services are extremely helpful; I could not do what I need to do without my caregivers. I wouldn't be able to get out of bed without them.

I've only been with Home Helpers since October, and the caregiver is perfect. No one else has come to annoy me. Home Helpers' caregiver does everything that I ask her to do. She helps with what I ask and sometimes is even aware of what I need before I say anything. She thinks ahead of me.

Home Helpers has good caregivers. I had a spinal surgery that went back and so I need the help from Home Helpers to cook for me or take the trash out; the things I cannot do anymore.

Home Helpers treats my mom well and does whatever needs to be done. Home Helpers made life easier for my mom so she didn't have to do the laundry.

Holly did a great and friendly service for me. I really wish to thank her. Very nice service.

In order to get care, I have to call Home Helpers' central office and they call Salmon Creek who in turn talk to my mom and there is a lot lost in translation. My mom has been in the hospital a lot and sometimes afterwards needs extra care and we don't always get that. There is nothing written down about what the care is they provide and it is hard to get them to communicate. I haven't been able to talk to the caregivers directly, which I think would be better rather than having to go through the office. The caregiver helps my mom with her bath and laundry and she couldn't be where she is without their help. I need for the caregivers to check and see if my mom has taken her medication and nobody seems to be able to look and see if she has taken it. When my mom got out of rehab a few weeks ago, I asked that the caregivers check on her at 10 and 6 but they were showing up somewhere in that time window, which wasn't explained to me prior to them setting up the schedule and my mom was expecting them at those times.

Home Helpers is always neat, clean, awake, aware, and ready to do the job or work. I use the services for a limited amount except for on Saturday.

Home Helpers has been wonderful. They have been very communicative. They call us regularly and we get really good information. I am not there with the client because we live in a different state, so we have needed Home Helpers to provide critical care.

The girl that works for me is very helpful and kind. I don't use Home Helpers daily, but they make my life easier by helping me do my laundry.
