"Caregivers are outstanding...not just sitters. They engaged my mother and make her feel like being active again. Staff and owner are extremely knowledgeable and professional, gave tons of resource information to me. I have nothing but the highest praise for Home Instead Senior Care. "

"A year ago I received a referral for Comfi-Kare Home Health services. My father-in-law was 92 and needed 8 hour a day care in his home. This quickly moved to 12 hour a day care. I can’t say enough about the expedient manner this company works it’s magic. We had many different caregivers based on our changing needs and each one was caring, patient, kind and very helpful. My father-in-law passed away this week and the owners of the company and all the caregivers came by to pay their respects to my mother-in-law. I highly recommend them with your home care needs."

"Chris and his staff have been excellent. Their attention to details is exceptional. My Mom's caregiver was excellent and provided daily care with passion. My only regret is not calling sooner for care. "

"Heather has been with my mother since 2014. She works well with her. Helps direct her in how she should eat with her diabetes. Mom has a brain injury and doesn't always comprehend certain things. Heather helps keep things organized for her. My brother and I have both been pleased with the care and understanding our mother has received. Heather is one of the companions mom listens to, better than she'll listen to us. "

"I've had Darselle as my provider for most of the last 2 months. She's a self-starter that doesn't have to be asked to do tasks. She is personable and a pleasure to work with. I would definitely recommend her to anyone else. "

I am Rebecca Bodor, proud owner of Homewatch CareGivers of Loudoun. My husband Tim and I are natives of Northern Virginia and its surrounding communities. We have enjoyed raising our family here and taking advantage of all that this area has to offer. I made the decision to be involved in work that provided a meaningful service and a way to give back to our community. Both Tim and I have experienced the struggles of finding the right home care for our families. In the 1990’s, Tim’s mother had the challenge of a husband with dementia. At that time, she felt there were no other options other than to put him in an institution. Ten years later while we were living abroad, Tim’s mother faced another challenge of having to struggle with cancer on her own, unable to find adequate in-home care before she passed away. I came into this business not only as an owner, but as a client. After my father had a stroke in 2015, my parents had to face the very difficult decisions that need to be made regarding aging and their care. The vast amount of information and resources out there can be overwhelming! We continue to experience the emotional toll this takes on a family and I understand the difficult task of choosing care for the people you love. I believe my personal experiences give me a unique understanding in how to provide a better service to our clients. Our guiding principle is to provide our clients with the kind of service that we would want for our own families. I understand how it feels to bring someone into your home when there is a need for professional care, and we make every effort to match our clients with the right caregiver. We strive to give our caregivers a great place to work, where they feel valued and part of our extended family. By doing so, we know our caregivers will extend those feelings to our clients. In 2019 we were proud to receive the distinguished Best of Home Care –Leader in Excellence Award from Home Care Pulse, the leading firm in quality assurance for home care. The Leader in Excellence Award is the highest recognition awarded by Home Care Pulse and is given to select home care businesses that consistently rank among the very highest in 10 or more quality metrics.

"Mr Pete provides my father, a veteran, outstanding care and attention. He makes it possible to keep my father well."

"We used Right at Home to take care of my mom. The staff in the office were very friendly and involved in my mom's care. The caregiver they assigned to my mom, became her best friend. She really was a part of the family. I would highly recommend Right at Home to anyone looking for care at home."

"I learned about Home Instead Senior Care through a caregiver's presentation made by Katie of Home Instead. We were in the process of making decisions for my dad (mid to late stages of Alzheimers). At that point, we had decided that we would move in with my parents and help with care that way. As much as I tried, I just couldn't keep up with his wandering during the night and it was also taking it's toll on my mother. I called Gail at Home Instead and explained where we were in the journey. I told her about my dad and our needs. Within a few days we had several caregivers in place for nights. We began with a few nights a week and then began to have someone every night. If there was ever a caregiver that was not a good "fit" for my dad, Gail was quick to make the adjustment. Together we created a team of 3-4 caregivers that covered 7 nights a week. If there was ever any special instructions to pass on to the caregivers all I had to do was email Gail and the instructions were passed on to the caregivers. Communication was amazing. Eventually we needed more help during the day hours and within a few days Gail & Bella were able to fill the slots again making sure that the caregiver was a good "fit" for my dad. During all of this, Gail was super helpful in guiding me and submitting paperwork to the long term care insurance provider that my dad had (and I know from experience with them that was quite a task for her). In the beginning of April, we decided that it was time for the next step which was a full time memory care unit in our home town. Katie and all of the staff were very helpful and encouraging as we made this transition. We would not have been able to keep my dad at home for that time if it wouldn't have been for the great staff at Home Instead. I would recommend Home Instead Senior Care of Gettysburg to anyone in need of great in home care.. "

"HomeWell took care of my 95 yr old mother at home after she was released from the hospital. The nurse creating the care plan was personable and thorough at the same time, and the caretakers were also friendly and professional. My mother felt very well cared for, and communication between HomeWell and the family was excellent. She's had a number of care givers in the house in the last few years. HomeWell stands out for its professionalism and trustworthiness."

"We engaged the services of Shepherd's Staff for a brief time, following our father's discharge from a rehab facility after he had broken his hip. Our dad is very independent, so this was a difficult situation for him to have to adjust to (having someone do most things for him, needing supervision, etc, to maintain his safety). The staff member, William, was sensitive to this. While we did not require the services of Shepherd's Staff for very long (less than 10 occasions), our dad was well-treated, we felt that his safety was maintained as he gained back his strength, and that the agency ensured that someone trust-worthy was there to assist him. We hope that the need to use these services doesn't present again, but we would feel very comfortable selecting Shepherd's Staff again should the need arise. Thank you, Angela, for your assistance; we appreciate the quality! "

"We've used Visiting Angels before and we've had no problems with them. We've hired them a couple of times, just for a couple of days. We just got them to come in for companionship and medicine and they were absolutely wonderful. They would come in four hours at a time until my husband got home and my father-in-law would go to bed, that type of thing. They were wonderful and it was a big help to us. We've had two different ladies come in. The one my father-in-law just really seemed to adore was very talkative, very friendly, and that was just great for him."
