It's great for the client, but it's even greater for me because it gives me a little freedom being that I am his primary caregiver. I have referred them. I like everything about the agency. The girls are first-class and they're very caring. They have become my daughters. They have taken wonderful care of the client. They're very giving and loving.

They don't need to charge me quite so much. They are quite expensive. Two of the caregivers they sent weren't as good. I would prefer somebody more qualified.

John W_69

Diana is very willing to make meals while she's there, but if she could cook meals other than a sandwich for dinner, mom would appreciate that. Right now, Diana, is very nice and mom likes her a lot. Mom wishes that Diana would let mom speak for herself when they go out.

Jim A_13

He can trust that he's getting the proper medications set up for him and they are a second set of eyes for the family who are not available to see the situation. I like the extensiveness of the care.

They were very helpful. There was a gap to get through the diagnosis process. The person that was here was kind and generous but they would frequently leave things undone. Overall, I thought it was very good.

The services have helped me the most by providing nurses to do wound care for each of my parents every morning. I was exhausted trying to do everything with my kinds at home and with my parents. I have recommended to three or four families. The agency is professional and efficient.

Nothing, they are doing great. They are caring and responsive.

They can make my life easier by having more nurses. They need a full staff. If they could cover 24 hours that would be helpful. They can improve by having more nurses.

My wife had a fall and went to the hospital. They provided the helpers after that. The nurse who straightens out our pills is very responsive to questions.

Lenora _1

The caregiver went with her and took care of her when my mom had to be rushed to the hospital. Jenette the caregiver went above and beyond with providing care. They are easy to contact if I have questions.

David F_14

It allowed my brother to go to work and they were there long enough so that my brother could get home from work and take over once the caregiver left. In the end, it was very hard to schedule with them because of a lack of caregivers.

Alison S_2

They kept her safe. They cared more about her than the hospital did. I liked the personalization and willingness to be flexible. Megan, our main caregiver, was amazing. Ursula was really wonderful at coordinating.

Anonymous_5985

They were about to help us really quickly. The nurse that they had was great. From what I know, they were able to schedule us last minute and my mom really liked working with the nurse they sent her.

Tim C_6

There was a lack in communication from management as far as who's coming and when. We would like to see better caregivers being provided.

Herlyn L

They answer any doubts that I have. They are all kind and understanding.

Jim _4

They did the best that they could. They have good customer service.

Anonymous_5732

They gather information for me, on my behalf, to see how my loved one is doing at a facility. They are data gatherers for me. They do their job well, although I have very unique circumstances.

Philip Z

The caregivers play mind games with the client. They will usually play one on one games with her so her brain is stimulated. I like how the agency follows up with their clients.

They have allowed her more time to do the things she needs to do for herself. I like that if a caregiver gets sick or goes to another position they replace them in a timely manner.

Chuck K_2

They took care of all his physical needs, but there wasn't much they could do to improve his life. I like the owner and most of their people are professional.

Carol K_14

The caregiver is adequate in what he does, but he is not very easy to work with. He doesn't do above the minimum of work. They have blamed me for any problems, there is no follow-up in the communication with the office.

Anonymous_5197

The caregivers are unskilled and they require a lot of guidance from us. I feel like it has taken a lot of training on our part to get them used to the equipment and what we need them to do. They are very responsive. They were great at answering our questions.

Matthew E_2

They could make sure their people are prepared. They need to have better communication. They need to send over people who are more prepared.

Marc W_1

They provide my mother with the care she needs. I like that they are responsive.

Dorothy _4

I have had to show many caregivers how to shower my husband, which is due to circumstances. Some people did not show up. It has been stressful. I appreciated that they gave me someone for 1 day a week.

Jean _2

The services allowed my dad to stay home rather than having to go to a facility. BrightStar is professional, helpful, and caring.

Leo B

They were not there for very long, only a few hours. They only came two days a week and I thought I would have the same person come on both days, but there were different people each time.

Andrea k

It makes my life a lot easier. I like the caregiver we get on the weekdays.

Suzanne M_10

They really addressed my concerns and solved the problem. We had an issue with the first caregiver and Jeff handled it well.

Anonymous_3199

They can be more consistent with the caregivers they send. They can train their caregivers.

Adrian C

The whole organization has been helpful to the owner and the nurse. They have been good to have and have a good relationship. They could provide caregivers who are more suited for my mom.

Anonymous_4835

They help with laundry. They do the things that we need.

Richard T_11

They need to do what they say they will do. I would like them to communicated better, they say they will call back and then they never do.

Kim _5

The nurse that cared for my dad was dependable. They are fantastic.

Karen M_29

They do housekeeping chores that are more important to me than to him so I don't think he appreciates them as much as I do. I would like to see more regularity with the caregivers.

Deirdre L

They took a lot of tasks and responsibilities off my plate. They're responsive, professional, and caring.

Anonymous_4615

I would like them to work without being asked. I would like them to send caregivers that are willing to work and not just sit there.

Sara M_5

They could send qualified trained people every time. I've received a mix of good and bad ones. They would have regular caregivers come so I don't have to reacquaint new ones.

Eileen P_1

When my mom came home from the hospital they provided nursing care and the nurse caught things that saved my Mom's life. I like that they have good quality of nursing care. The staff and management is professional and easy to work with.

Erica L_1

They were able to accommodate me in a last minute change. I like that they are reliable and they have good aides available.

Anne H_6

When we first got them we all had covid and they came with PPE and it was a blessing to have. We needed help because we could not do it and since then they have made it so we could sleep at night. They are very responsive. If someone cannot come they call and let us know and try to get someone to fill the spot. Jeff the owner came and he introduced the caregivers to us.

Anonymous_4378

She was weak from having had COVID, and they were able to address her physical needs. They were the only service who would take a COVID-positive patient.

Anonymous_4345

It has been a high impact on my life because I'm handicapped. They make sure things are cleaned and help me get around. They can be more consistent in getting things done. Some caregivers do a good job, but others seemed to just be buying their time. For example, one caregiver was in the bathroom cleaning it for an hour, but nothing was cleaned when they eventually came out.

Laura D_8

They gave us the confidence that we are doing okay in his care. I like the nurse that they sent, she was knowledgeable and caring.

Lori J_6

We've had some caregivers who have been excellent. We've had others who couldn't do what we needed. This agency need to have consistent caregivers that coming on schedule.

Irving W_3

The caregivers will help me shower. That is unbelievably helpful. This agency is very pleasant to deal with.

Thomas G_7

They watch over him and help him. They could improve training and matching the caregivers to the client.

Louis _1

They could be better at changing the bag on my catheter. The caregivers know what they are doing.

Mary K_25

With the person we have now, it's good. They attend to my mother's things. The people they sent at first weren't as good. They would talk on their cell phone, and I didn't like that. They didn't come back, so that was the only thing.

Rosalee B_2

They need to be more attentive. The caregivers need to know how to clean.

Patricia D_16

It has helped us and we are only getting one service. Everybody has been very nice and kind.

Anonymous_2488

They should clean up the kitchen a little bit. We've had good luck with the people they send, and they are very reliable.

Judy H_13

They could charge less for services or be a bit more transparent about how much their workers get. You want to know that the people caring for you are being compensated fairly. They are good at followup, flexibility, and communication is great.

Ivette P

I had someone to take care of my parents for the weekend while I needed it. Everyone was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Sandra S_11

They have helped by being here with my husband so that I can go to work or just out to lunch. I can always call them and tell them what I want. The caregivers have been adequate, friendly and try their best.

Mary F_8

They have helped with problems with the hospital and discharge. They are on top of things and they are helpful with different care levels.

Jeannie B_1

I am not sure if they offer an on call caregiver emergency. If they had someone who was on call that could run over and help him it would be worth paying for. My dad likes his caregivers. No one has stolen from us.

Corrine J

They could have done a lot more to help out. They should have sent better nurses.

Anonymous_3970

They are kind and attentive to him. I like their response time.

Anonymous_2137

There was some disruption because the time we wanted got changed. I have been able to develop a good working relationship with Jeff, and he was easy to talk to and explained what our needs are.

Mary R_27

They do what they say they are going to do, and they show up when they say they are going to show up. They are very good at communicating and getting back to us.

Joan W_13

I was having getting caregivers to stay here. I like that they are very accessible.

Steve K_6

They have been very responsive. They are dependable.

Anonymous_3842

Overall, it didn't impact me well. I'm still using one of their nurses. I needed coverage on certain days and they did come through for me so I had to go to another agency. I need them to follow through completely with the coverage I need on certain days.

Dan _3

We have a live-in caregiver who we are very happy with. They should go over the bills with the clients. They should make sure their caregivers are showing up and clocking in and out.

John B_43

They make sure they get their medications. There have been many times that I needed someone to come and cover for the caregiver. I have to travel in order to cover them. They have constantly come up with nothing.

Sung

It was helpful. It would help if the caregiver knew how to take care of kids. This is the first time using them and it's been crazy with the COVID-19 and we requested for child care backup. We had two people come out from BrightStar Care and the first person didn't really know how to interact with kids. It was more like passive care. I don't know that I would have been comfortable if I weren't home.

Caroline V

The owner is fine. He has been friendly and pleasant. They have been sufficient, they have gotten people here.

Paula N_1

They communicated with him and kept him company. I liked that they were really quick. They got out there within less than 24 hours when I first called.

Kitty V

They prepare meals and fold his laundry. They could be more responsive to my questions.

Meg_1

If I were a family member who were local it would impact more. It has been very helpful, what she needs is help with errands and light housekeeping. They have been excellent with changes in scheduling when we have asked for it.

Theresa M_6

The caregiver did what she was supposed to do but I did not care for the perfume that she was wearing. The person that they sent was okay but she had a perfume or fragrance that I could not stand.

Renae C

My dad absolutely loved the caregiver. He felt safe with him. They came when I asked them to come but the person that came didn't follow any of the instructions that I had told them but he was really great.

Camille _1

They've added greatly to the quality of my life. The aides are very kind and helpful.

Lori J_1

They help by doing the things that I can't do by myself and they help me be more independent. I like the flexibility and I could do a four hour shift and have as many as I wanted.

Barbara S_37

I felt like they needed to be told every thing to do. They dried the clothes but didn't empty the lint container. They could be more informative. I didn't know that I was going to get hit with time and half.

Arlene W_1

She has been here when we have needed her, but she takes care of him like her own grandpa. She helps me a lot because I'm not well. I like the caregiver that I have. She is very fantastic, and she feels like a member of our family. I would recommend BrightStar Care to everyone.

Joan W_8

The caregiver helps with everything from taking care of food to making sure the medications are correct. I like the person they send very much. The caregiver that I have has been wonderful.

Anonymous_2750

If you give someone a message, the next person doesn't get it, so they need to have better communication with each other. We asked every week if they could give us a list of everyone who is coming because it was inconsistent, but it is consistent now.

Tammy M_9

The nurse they brought was really compassionate and experienced. They were very organized. They were ready to help immediately.

Tim C_3

They interact and have compassion for her. They respond to her and her needs, even when she is difficult at times. I like the individual caregiver.

Darlene D_4

They provided daily care. A couple of them were very good, socially. I requested that it be the same people, and it never happened.

Albert _1

They take care of basic functions without any difficulties or concerns. The caregiver is excellent.

Media K

It helped me a lot. At the time, I was bedridden. I tell everyone. They are really focused on my care and what I need. My care is the best one.

Hanna S_1

They have provided us with an outstanding caregiver. I am just very impressed with the attention that we have gotten and the quality of the person who is here.

Norrien S

They make my ma, who is 97, comfortable. It takes a lot of pressure off the daily attention that my ma needs. They make my ma feel comfortable, and the management is very responsive to myself and to my ma.

Anonymous_2252

Their agency has good follow up. I like that they are reliable.

Marilyn S

We have gotten several who were not capable of handling him. I would like them to improve the quality of some of their health care providers.

Marianne E_1

The person who was caring for my mother was wonderful, firm when she needed to be, and gentle when she needed to be. When the first caregiver didn't work out, we found another person who did.

Susan _2

It was the small simple mistakes that had me concerned. It was nice to have someone around, and she seemed to be attentive to my mom. I needed to be one hundred percent certain, and I wasn't. We only had one person. There were some simple mistakes. She unplugged the phone so I couldn't get ahold of my mom for a day. They were simple common sense mistakes.

Audrey B_4

It has allowed me to get out and do stuff on my own. It has enabled me to get out and have someone with her on a regular basis. They are very comprehensive in what they do. Having a nurse in charge of all of the aides gives us a pretty good idea of what is happening. I am pretty impressed with them.

Anonymous_1981

The caregivers need to have more training. They need to improve the quality of the caregivers.

Susan G

My mother's condition would be impossible for me to manage alone and I do not want her to be in a nursing home. To have BrightStar Care available to have someone be my mother's advocate means everything to me. They have a stable of people that are available.

Paul R_11

They were strong communicators. They're compassionate and know their business in taking care of elderly patients. I like that they're compassionate, very well-organized, and have a high level of care. They are an awesome group of people, and this is the second time I have used them.

William _7

One of the caregivers helped keep my husband content, and she also helped with household chores. They had a nurse that came out initially and they had access to anybody if I had questions. They had very good caretakers.

William _3

They help the most, when they come in the mornings. I like most when they can leave me alone to let me make my own arrangements.

Henrietta _1

They should just have consistency in sending people. They sent whoever they had and they didn't have that many people to send and they were filling different shifts and it was constantly different people. They could have more consistency.

Edward D_5

She has West Nile and they won't treat her for that. We just started a few weeks ago so we will see how it goes.

Liz V_1

They could vet the people. They are good people, but I don't think they have a caregiver background. They usually bring me good quality people in a quick way. They respond quickly to me.

Helen B_16

They help me go to bed at night. I love the caregivers that they send.

Herb L

It helped my wife, and it helped me. They were punctual and did exactly what we asked them to do.

Anonymous_1078

The caregivers did too much hovering, I wanted them to leave me alone. The people were not too swift. They were nice, but they did not know too much.

Joan P_7

They are very friendly and attentive to me about everything. So far, I have had good experience with all of the caregivers. They are friendly, well trained, and have a good atmosphere about them while they are here.

Nikki O

BrightStar grew with us. In the end, they were up to 12 hours a day for 7 days a week. It was absolutely necessary. It was very helpful to my mother. They are reliable. My mother felt comfortable with them. Overall, the care was very good.

Michael H_7

I think that they need to have higher quality caregivers come to our home. They need to have more communication with me.

Greg S_3

They didn't make my life any worse and did their job. I would tell them that the follow through was great and they had good communication.

Anonymous_235

They need to communicate better. They guarantee me someone will be here.

Mrs. G_1

They did what we wanted. When they went to therapy with us, it was helpful because it was hard for my husband to get in the car. I would never recommended them. They need to work on continuity of care.

Frances B_3

The first caregiver got along great with my mom. She was absolutely wonderful. The new caregivers are more challenging. The caregiver has said no to my mom when she asked her to do something. They could change the 48 hour window rule when we make changes to her care. Sometimes that's difficult when schedules change and I have to plan so far in advance.

Kelly V_1

The caretakers were willing to help out with anything that we asked of them. I liked that the owner came out to introduce the caretakers to me. I thought that was nice.

Chris_1

They help by having him on a schedule to keep him occupied throughout the day. Their office operations could use some improvement. The caregiver is awesome though.

Patty

I don't think it really made an impact on him, because he was pretty sick. But it definitely had an impact on me. I had several caregivers over the time we used the services, and there was only one I had to get rid of. Everybody was just so caring, it was great.

Carol _5

She gets exceptional care. We've only had one we didn't like. They're fabulous, we have wonderful nurses, they're nice. She has adapted to them very well.

Linda C

They make my life easier because I don't have to do the care that my loved one receives when they come in. I like that they are very nice and personable nurses.

Mike H

My loved one welcomes the interaction from the caregivers and they have done some household chores. That has relieved me and the companionship has been a big help for her. We have had three different caregivers because we asked for a change. The last two caregivers have a had a caring attitude and have helped her out a lot.

Rob R

It relieved a lot of stress on the family and myself because I was the primary provider and caregiver. It freed up a lot of time for myself and family. It was really easy to talk to the owner. He was really understanding and provided a lot of information. He was very easy to work with.

Carolyn K

They make life easier by sending great caregivers. Generally speaking, they send people who work well and the management is very good. I like that they are professional.

Jim

The billing is the main source of frustrating. His caregiver can drive him around. After surgery, he needed a lot of help maneuvering. The care is great. My uncle is getting cared for. We've had a lot of the care has been excellent, but the challenge is the billing. There's been mistakes and getting it to my uncle has not been good.

Cheri M_2

The services have been able to make life easier by giving my uncle a consistent relationship. We love everything about BrightStar Care, especially our caregiver Joanna.

Donn M

The provider could have a greater impact on my daily life by making sure that their people understand that when they come to the client's house, they should do what the client wants. The service is getting better than it was. When we get a caregiver that we like, they are good about letting us keep them.

Ruth A

With the help they have given my parents, I'm more at ease and less stressed when I leave the house. The caregiver helped the client's wife with her nails and adjusted them as well as filed them. They are very good at cleaning.

Terri R

It has been great that they are able to provide someone to be here during treatment. The people that they have sent have been knowledgeable and nice to work with.

Mary B_45

The things my mother wasn't able to do, they would do for her or help her with. We had very good luck with the caregiver, and they were very good to my mom.

csnorthbrook

“She was always there for my Mom. Excellent, excellent. Very sweet, very compassionate, very attentive. She certainly exceeded my expectations. And I really appreciate the effort all of you at BrightStar made for us.” CS, Northbrook.

Kris

I have already recommended BrightStar Care to others. They are very hands-on, the people seem to know what they are doing, and they are nice. The supervisor is in contact every couple of weeks to make sure things are going well. The days I have somebody come in I have more time for myself rather than trying to get my husband ready for the day.

Mike

I like that the nurse lives close to my house. They've helped me to get better in terms of my health, and they get me on a better track.

Judy P

They should send someone who can speak English. They should spend more time with the client.

William S

My father has used their services for a long time and is pleased with the people BrightStar sends. They come in once a week. They are there to keep him company and help him with his needs.

Erich K

They're terrific. I like all my caregivers. They really help me out.

Janet Q

The caregivers are compassionate, knowledgeable, treat my mother well, and are always on time. They take care of my mother's personal care because my mother doesn't allow us to take care of her. They make meals for her as well.

Edward M_1

I like that they are very curious. I have the nurse three times a week and she's a nice person. The therapist comes three times a week and he is excellent.

Anthony F

They have a lot of people working for them. My caregiver helps me a lot. She helps me with showering.

Lorene M

They were very timely and quick when care was needed to get him out of rehab. They helped my husband do exercises so I didn't have to nag him. We wasn't eating and wasn't walking until they helped. I could focus on other issues with their help.

Carol V

BrightStar Care is nice and on time. The services are needed in my loved one's life.

BrightStar Care suit the care to your needs and capabilities, and the people are nice. BrightStar Care has improved my health and stamina through attention to the treatment that I need.

Herbert V_1

BrightStar Care has very good people and they gave me tremendous help. I have a lot of different medications that I need to take, and the services did a fine job of ensuring that I got them.

Marjorie B_2

I was expecting more from the care from BrightStar Care. BrightStar Care should more consistent with the caregivers.

Glenn H_2

I had a bad experience with BrightStar Care. I was not happy that BrightStar Care charged my credit card for care when we had substitute caregivers. I appreciated that BrightStar Care let me have some breathing space to go out, but I don't know if it was worth what they charged.

Mike F

BrightStar Care did everything that they promised to make sure my loved one was comfortable. BrightStar Care made life a lot easier for me, too. They took over a lot of the everyday care and made my loved one more comfortable.

Arline T

BrightStar Care seems to care, and they seem interested in what we have to say. BrightStar Care does stuff for me instead of me doing it by myself, and they always ask if they can do more.

Patricia V

Some of the caregivers from BrightStar Care were excellent, but my mother had so many other problems with the agency. She required someone to be there at 6:00 AM to get her out of bed because she cannot get out by herself. Over the first week of using the services, the caregiver came over an hour past the scheduled time; another time, they showed up three hours late. After that, my mother received a different caregiver who was able to work the needed time. Things were okay with that caregiver, but before then everything was pretty bad. BrightStar Care doesn't have 24-hour answering services, so my mother would have to leave a message early in the morning and no one would call back right away to send her a caregiver. The quality of the work was good, but the caregivers just didn't show up. There were good things about the services provided by BrightStar Care that helped to make my mother's life easier. They did the housecleaning, took care of her personal hygiene, and did meal prep for her.
