"Home Instead is a quality care giving support company. I have been associated with them for about a year after experiencing some disappointments with another agency and could not be happier. Home Instead comes to your house to access your situation and then follows through with careful selection of caregivers suited to your needs. In my case, it is a husband with Alzheimers whose needs are ever increasing. Home Instead establishes a regular, weekly routine for continuity. The people who schedule (and the whole staff) help are enormously helpful and courteous. They do everything they can to provide substitutes when necessary. I fortunately have the "perfect" combination of caregivers who are patient, caring and kind with my husband. Home Instead is made up of a compassionate group of people (staff and caregivers alike), some of whom have been with the company for years. I have experienced no constant turn over of caregivers. Most impressive is the support given by of the owner and staff when difficult situations may arise with the clients. I honestly cannot say enough in supporting this company."

"Right at Home is very good. Nice people -- my mother likes everybody, and it worked out very well. We have been using them for about four months. People are very down to earth, easy to deal with, and work with my mother who is 95. Everything just seems to work out fine. "

"The services provided are personal care, assistance with meal prep, light housework, medication administering, and companionship. They are punctual or notify me of they will be late. The rest of the details have already been provided."

"Jhovany very caring respect ful responsible I like him very much. Thank you to always best care."

"Caregivers are responsible and on time. They are willing to assist us in ways that are most useful to us. And they adjust our care plan as needed."

"Right now, I have somebody from Right at Home Middle Connecticut for a week, 24/7. It's one person, and she'll move on to her next assignment when she's done here. The kids just wanted me to have somebody here 24/7 when I first came home from rehab. She's here to make sure that I don't fall and that I have someone if I need anything, like heating some lunch, and that kind of thing. Just making sure that I'm careful and don't get hurt. It's nothing like the bathroom kind of stuff, because I'm able to get in and out of the shower, and the actual bathroom. I've had her since last Saturday, and she'll be here until this coming Saturday. I think what the agency does is very good, so I'm giving a happy review."

"Synergy Homecare of Trumbull CT has been an amazing comfort for my husband and me. We had tried other agencies and they all had negative issues and events occur with us. When the Veterans Administration wanted us to try one more I was hesitant but once I talked to Erica I felt comfortable and hopeful. Our caregiver Sheila is energetic - compassionate - patient - everything I am praying for to be ok with my husband when I am at work. Sheila makes sure he takes his meds - gets his food and drinks and does a perfect job with the laundry and home organization. I am truly grateful. I would absolutely recommend the Trumbull office for your family's needs. The agency has been responsive to any requests I have called with. If someone is sick or needs a day off they will send a suitable substitute for the day."

"We have been very pleased with the support we have been given. The support people come in every day and do the cooking, cleaning,etc. and take scare of my wife who has dementia. The people who support us have many good ideas I could also use. They come to all doctor visits, help get my wife in and out of the car, and participate in the discussions with the doctor. One of the more demanding requirements of their support is giving my wife showers and helping her use the washroom. Also, they are very flexible in their scheduling of the support, especially when they get short notice of a needed change in the schedule. Their support is excellent. I would recommend Right At Home to anyone who needs home care."

"Thank you for all of your help over the last few weeks. Your caregivers were all terrific and I just don’t know what we would have done without you. "

"Castle Group provided my 74 year old mom with excellent and attentive care. The person they provided my mother actually went beyond her call of duty.I was actually surprised how my mother took to her as she is not the easiest to get along with .I would highly recommend Castle Group to anyone seeking care for their elderly parents"

"My mother was a client of Love and Care from 2020 until her recent passing in March, 2024. The caregivers they provided were kind, caring, reliable, trustworthy and professional. After having a few part-time caregivers who alternated days, it was felt by both Bruce, who is one of the owners, and myself that due to her progressing dementia, my mother would benefit from the consistency of one 24/7 caregiver. Bruce was always accommodating, showing much concern and compassion, and worked with me in the interest of meeting my mother’s needs. He then provided us with Tina, who gave exceptional care to my mother in every way. Her patience, kindness, concern, interpersonal and nursing skills as well as her ability to engage and soothe my mother during occasionally challenging times gave me and my family comfort and assurance that she was always safe and very well-cared for. Tina took care of all of my mother’s needs and even prepared wholesome and delicious meals daily for her, which resulted in my mother’s health and appearance improving. I am very grateful to Love and Care and highly recommend this agency to anyone seeking excellent care for their loved ones. Laurie G."
