The 5 Best Home Care Agencies for Seniors in Sangamon County, IL for 2025

"The caregiver from Home Instead is very caring and willing to do anything we’re asking. Somebody come in that helps us with daily things like cleaning. They did a fantastic job. They do laundry, clean the house, and get meals for us. They were exactly what we were looking for. "

"We have Visiting Angels of Springfield that come twice a week. They come and help with light housekeeping. They walk my dog, they bring in the mail, they take out the trash, and all things that are a little difficult for us to do. We also have housecleaner. The caregivers are excellent and they're well-coordinated from their office. So we get a lot of support from them, and we've been very pleased. They do an excellent job with scheduling and billing."

"We contracted through Christine for a day a week for housekeeping, laundry, med trips, etc for my 94 year old dad who lives alone. Christine is great, keeping in touch with us whenever she felt my dad was having problems with anything. She even played games with him! And she took him to a few doctor appointments since we live in another state. Carelink also had other helpers come in on a rotating basis, so dad could choose the ones he liked although I think that has to be mutual between caregiver and dad. They were on time, and would call in advance if someone was sick, etc. Sometimes you just click, like with Christine!"

"The people of Community Care are doing a pretty good job. They were able to send somebody for my mom in about a week. The caregiver pretty much does what my mom asks her to do. "

"I used to have home care from BrightStar Care Springfield Decatur. I like this agency, they're well managed, and they take good care of me. They have good care overall and they helped me with bathing, dressing, and helped me walk around and helped get me in and out of bed. They have some good people, the nurses kept the meds straight, and they count them every day."

"We've been using Heart and Hands Care Services for my dad and my step-mom for about a month now. They make sure that they take her medicine. They can't administer the medicine, but they make sure it has been taken. They do the laundry, and they do dishes for her. They just about anything you would ask them to do as long as it doesn’t involve anything medical. "
