Wisdom Eldercare has done a wonderful job providing for my father’s 24 hour care. His caregivers are true professionals - timely, dependable, knowledgeable and kind. In addition, the Wisdom Eldercare staff’s responsiveness has been truly exemplary. Whenever there’s been an issue, the staff has come up with a timely and good solution. My family has been grateful to be working with an organization like Wisdom Eldercare.

Provider Response

Dear Donna, Thank you for sharing your sentiments with us. I'm so glad we have been able to care for your dad (and mom) over the past several months. Its our honor and privilege to partner with you and your family to keep your dad well cared-for at home. Sincerely, Gina LaPalio-Lakin Owner and Chief Executive Officer

Wisdom Eldercare found a caregiver that was perfectly compatible with my mom. The caregiver that worked with my mom provided great companionship and helped my mom get through a difficult time. You can tell she truly cared. The caregiver was extremely reliable and always showed up on time. I highly recommend Wisdom Eldercare!

Provider Response

Thank you for your kind words, Michelle. We enjoyed getting to know your mom, and are glad we were able to provide support to your her when she needed it.

I am a past client of this provider

Dec. 28, 2020 I owe my life to Michelle, who works for Wisdom Elder Care. I became critically ill when my husband died. When I understood that I needed help, I fortunately contacted Wisdom Elder Care for this help. The person they provided for me got me through many critical episodes. I ended up needing a Liver Transplant. Michelle stayed with me before, throughout and my final recovery. She was efficient, capable and sympathetic. The office was highly professional a pleasure to deal with. I would very much advise anyone who needs help to use their services. Sincerely, Arlene Brash

Provider Response

Dear Arlene, Thank you for your kind sentiments. You are truly an example of how partnering with the right caregiver can be a life-saving decision. We are so glad you are doing well and are thankful to Michelle for her dedication to going above and beyond for you and all of her clients at Wisdom. To life! Sincerely, Gina LaPalio-Lakin Owner/CEO
