Our Father got to come home, after a stay in a rehab center. We knew his time was short, so we were so blessed to have Home Care of the Rockies set everything up for him. Needless to say, we also had a Hospice care coming in to guide us through this final transition. All I can say is I don’t know what I would’ve done without Linda O, Abby, Maribel and Shelly. They took a frightening situation and made it a blessing in every way. Linda’s, CNA’s were always on time, always loving, kind and respectful to our Dad and us as a family. Linda came up each time we had a new CNA starting. Linda was also available 24/7 if I had any questions or concerns. She answered on the first ring!

I used ComForCare last year from July to October for my mom. They were going in once a day to check on my mom who has Alzheimer’s and to try and just keep her more socially connected. They made every attempt they possibly could to clean her house, but she just would not let them. What’s more important right at that point was just to have somebody talking with her and letting me know if she was declining greatly or if there’s any concerns that they were seeing at that time. I live 900 miles away, so I needed their help to keep an eye on her. They would try to clean up as much as they could because she was not living in the best circumstances at her home because of Alzheimer’s.
The second caregiver was wonderful. She was really great with Mom and really connected with her. She made every effort to try to get in there and clean her kitchen and her bathroom and try to keep it livable for her until we can make a decision on whether or not she needs to go into assisted care. The first caregiver, unfortunately, did not work out but Chuck was really great about getting her replacement as quickly as possible for her.
Chuck did a really great job in working with us. They’re easy to work with and they have, not only the family’s best interests, but the patient’s best interests at the forefront of their mind. They gave me all kinds of resources on how I was going to deal with Mom because this is a whole new thing for me. They sent me videos, and Chuck would talk to me on the phone and reassure me, ‘Yup that’s part of the Alzheimer’s.’ So what’s really nice is having those resources available, especially the videos, that anytime I wanted to just watch something, I could watch them.

Determining Your Loved One’s Need for In-Home Care
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
Guidelines for Talking About In-Home Care
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
