"The agency provided an outstanding home care aide (Kathy). She was always proactive in seeing what needed to be done and doing it with a smile. Including patient cleaning, feeding, physical therapy assistance, bed/wheelchair transfers, and medication tracking. The agency (Robert) always provided timely response to any request we made or any feedback we gave. Questions were answered immediately. "

"We used a group called Senior Helpers of Contra Costa and Alameda. I've only had one caregiver and she's very good. They provide home care. They do some cooking, physical care, cleaning, and companionship. I used them for one month. Scheduling has been excellent. Communication was very good. The attitude of the caregiver was very positive. They're very flexible in hours and they don't charge more if you have to change schedules or you want fewer hours or more hours. In some places, if you hire them for less than 30 hours or something like that, the rate is much, much higher. When you're first starting to use somebody, you don't want to hire them at 30 or 40 hours because you don't even know them. You would like to start smaller and then add hours as you get more comfortable with them and this agency is very good that way."

"I was using Qualicare Homecare - San Ramon, CA for my parents. When I was looking for somebody and made a couple of calls, they were the first to respond. They came out. I enjoyed the discussions I had with them and I just felt comfortable with them. I'm not using them right now. It was only for an emergency situation. They were very responsive. They just came in there immediately and took over the care of my mom. They were wonderful. I had to go out of town in an emergency. So they came in and just took over in terms of I bought everything I needed to buy and set it up and stuff. They took good care of my mom. She loved them, and I will use them again. The pricing seemed about normal or average from the billing perspective, I can say we're okay. They were very dependable, very professional, and they were kind, and very understanding of the circumstances I have been in. So I appreciated everything they did."

"I initially faced some challenges with Thrive Home Care, particularly with scheduling inconsistencies and communication issues. I was quite concerned about my loved one's care. However, I reached out to their management, and I must say, they were incredibly responsive and attentive to my concerns.. Once the communication improved, the quality of care provided was exceptional. The caregivers were not only professional but also genuinely caring and compassionate. They made a superb effort to engage my loved one, making sure they felt comfortable and valued. In the end, my experience turned around completely. I’m grateful for the dedication of the staff to address my concerns and provide such loving care. I would recommend Thrive Home Care for anyone in need, as they clearly prioritize the well-being of their clients."

"We have used Home Instead over a period of many years, sometimes just hourly or for longer periods of time. This last time required 24/7 care as my Aunt is 100 yrs. old. It took some doing, but Ivy was able to put together a schedule with three women who had cared for my Aunt before. They showed up on time, gave very good care to my Aunt and basically ran the household. I had good interaction with caregivers and the staff was always there to help with any requests. Highly recommended! AJO'B"
