"Provides services in a professional manner. Always available and flexible to our needs. We work with Home Instead so that our mother can stay in her own home. We are very pleased that this goal has been maintained. "

"I am very satisfied with the care my mom and step father are receiving with Shaw. The owner is very communicative and the caregivers are attentive. It is nice to have "eyes and ears" on the ground when I am not around so thank you Shaw Services!"

"We have used Loving Care for almost 3 years. They provide overnight full time care for my Dad who had a stroke. The care givers are wonderful. They are very responsive to my Dad's health care needs. They arrive on time. Loving Care has been excellent to work with. "

"Families Come First has incredible caring individuals who have cared for my father for over 2 years. They become like an extended part of our family. My father suffers from stage 3 Alzheimer's disease and is totally bedridden. There are no skin issues at all thanks to the wonderful care he receives. They help with household chores when he is sleeping. They truly do put families first and I recommend them to anyone who wishes to remain independent at home but needs that extra help. I find their rates to be very affordable as well. "

"The people from Seniors Choice are good people. They are here because I have certain things that are wrong with me, and they just come to make sure that I'm OK and have them take my blood pressure and that kind of thing. I have gone to the hospital twice, and I've had something wrong, so they come in after I come back from the hospital. It is always the same people and, usually it's maybe about a week or two that they don't come, but then they come back again. "

"We're currently using AMLOVE SENIOR CARE for my mother. We have somebody come in six hours a day. They cook, they clean, they administer her medicine, and they run errands for her. For the most part the caregivers are pretty good, but sometimes they have some problems with schedule."

"My mother has refused assisted living so she's staying in her house with a caregiver living with her. They live and stay with her around the clock. I live seventy-five miles away from her so I can’t be there everyday; and somebody needs to be with her. So these ladies from Preferred Care are great; I mean they’re really good! They do everything - light housekeeping, cook for her, take her anywhere she needs to go as far as driving. They're really like a companion because we have no family other than her and I and that's it; and I can't be in two places at once. I highly recommend them. Well, it was a little intrusive at first. She’s not used to somebody because my father passed away twenty years ago so she's been alone by herself; taking care of herself and doing what she was used to doing and then having somebody with her all the time, so it was a little bit out of her norm. It took her a little while to get used to it but she likes it now. Like I said it’s a companion; it’s somebody that can be there when I can’t or my wife or my kids or family can’t be there, so it is a nice feature that they offer. At first it was us and then we couldn’t do it around the clock anymore, so this made it a lot better. "

Exceptional in-home care doesn’t just happen – that’s why Home Helpers invests in providing dependable, compassionate care by using the most qualified and compatible caregivers. Most people want to be where they are comfortable, whether that means seniors, or those recovering from illness who want to be back in their own home. Our caregivers make sure they can do that, being there to provide the extra care that's needed. All our caregivers are level 2 background screened, bonded and insured. Each has ongoing supervision and training to make sure they give the very best service to our clients. They are fully employed – their taxes are paid by the company, there are no contractors and we are NOT a registry. With each new client, we sit down with them to find out as much as we can about them – their likes and dislikes, their requirements and their personality – then we try to match them with the most suitable caregiver so that family members can be reassured that their loved one is happy. We can meet with them at their home (even if they are in assisted living and just want some additional help there), or in hospital or rehab facilities if families want to plan a loved one’s return home in advance of them being discharged. Our caregivers are trained in, and are experienced in the care of clients with a variety of conditions including Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, Parkinson’s disease, cancer, stroke, etc. We can be there from just an hour or two per week, right up to 24/7 care – there are no minimum hours. You only pay us for the hours we are there. If the client is a veteran, or the surviving spouse of a veteran we may also be able to assist them in obtaining a benefit that could cover their care costs. We also combine our care with technology – for our caregivers, there is an automated telephony service to ensure they check in and out on time. This means we know very quickly if there is a problem or delay and can make arrangements to send a back-up caregiver if necessary. We offer 24/7 monitoring pendants so that in the event that your loved one needs help when no-one else is with them, they can push a button and help will be on the way. We also offer automated medication management systems which will remind the client when to take medication and will send an alert to the central care center if the medication is not taken – the care center will do a welfare check to make sure the client is ok and remind them again to take their meds. Our services include: Light housekeeping Laundry Personal care (bathing/dressing/feeding, transferring, etc) Transportation to events or appointments Hospital/hospice sitter Meal preparation – including special diets Shopping Companionship (help with crafts or hobbies, games, conversation, etc) Medication reminders 24/7 monitoring service Partnership with Veterans Care Coordinationv Much more! We believe that people should be able to keep their independence for as long as possible, allowing them to spend their time doing what they enjoy – let us take care of the rest.

"My father lives in my rental house, and I have a nurse from Comfort Keepers coming in to care for him in the home. The caregivers are outstanding. They are very caring young ladies that come in, and my father has been in a very good mood since they started taking care of him. They are a good companion for him throughout the day. I just can't say enough good things about them. And the other thing I have to add is they are very affordable for the services they offer. I would say that the best part about their services is they work completely with what you need. In other words, the days I needed them and the exact hours I needed them, they were more than happy to facilitate anything I needed. "

"My caregivers at Caretime of Florida help me with food, bathing, and grocery shopping. The work attitude is sometimes good and sometimes bad. They have worked with me for three years, and I have one caregiver every day. They also take me to get my hair done and help me with laundry."

"Called this agency for my grandmother, they came out quick and were able to help her. So thankful that we did not need to put her in a facility."

"We had in-home care from Southern Loving Care for four weeks. The agency seemed nice. They answered all my questions and told me what was going on. The second caregiver was very nice, showed up on time, and tried to do the job."
