"My mom is using Qualicare Home Care Princeton 24/7. They help her with her bathing and getting up in the morning. They do some cooking, some light cleaning, and her laundry as well. We have two aides, and they try to send the same ones because my mom doesn't accept change well. There was one brand new girl who was just temporary. When I call to say that we need changes or something like that, they're very receptive and they try to do it as soon as possible. I set up her medications. They just remind her to take it. I set up the pills, and then they can pour them into a little dish so that she can take them."

"I hired Always Best Care for Mom Monday through Friday. They are expensive, but that's the going rate, unfortunately. They were very reactive; I called them, and the next day, they were at the house doing the assessment to see what was exactly needed. However, there were two occasions where I called them and did not get a response back within 12 hours. On one occasion, I called them on a Friday afternoon, and they called me back on Saturday at 10:00. But, they're not bad. The person they recommended was wonderful. I don't have complaints about that. "

"My parents used Prime Home Care 24/7. They were terrific. It's a good value for the money. It was expensive, but it was worth it. They did light housekeeping, they helped with bathing, and they helped with food, shopping, and preparation. Communication was very thorough. It would've been helpful to have somebody who drove. We didn't request someone else. The caretaker was lovely."

"I have an aide coming in through Lares Home Care for mom. I've only been using them for about two weeks now. The staff members are very helpful and patient during the intake process and getting it all set up with my mother. Everything seems so good so far. I don't have any complaints or anything. The caregiver is excellent. They help her with her activities of daily living and keeping her company and offered to help do little chores around the house. She's very patient, kind, and very supportive of me and my husband."

"We are very happy with Always Best Care. They do 24hr care, and the caregiver is excellent. I would recommend them. "

"The executive of Home Helpers is Howard S., and he was very helpful. When I said to Howard S., 'I don't want somebody coming into my sister's house because of the pandemic.' He said, 'I can provide you with my daughter who has done 3 years of work with a retirement center, but she is young. You think that would be OK for you?' I said, 'As long as she is the only person who comes and doesn't have other clients and see others, I would be happy with that.' It was my choice. My sister is 91, so I have this fear of this virus, which is very high in New Jersey. After 4 months in New Hampshire with us, when she wanted to go home, we were very concerned to have a group that would help her. Obviously, the house had been untouched for 4 months, but I was grateful that this group was able to do the things they did that normally another group was not able to do. Home Helpers are providing 4 hours of being at home with my sister helping her with food, with housekeeping, with getting the house organized and with putting things away. They are also helping her with companionship like playing cards when needed. They take her to each of the doctor's visits and make sure that she's taken care of. Then they make a report of what the doctor said she needs. She is comfortable with the caregiver. We are satisfied with her. I hope that she will be able to continue with my sister. My sister has Wifi at home but she doesn't know how to use her computer to get her email, so they help her with the emails. Because she has problems with her back, with her eyesight, and with her hearing, they help her with all of that. The important thing is that the owner Howard S. is very gracious. Whenever an issue comes up that needs our immediate response, he calls us and spends time with us on the phone. He has also gone into my sister's house several times to check it out himself."

"My mother needed help after a fall in her home and my friend referred me to Always Best Care. They walked me through the process and were very helpful in determining what level of care my mom needed. Her healthcare aide was wonderful and very caring and I was keep informed of my mothers progress. I would highly recommend Always Best Care."

"I look forward to the caregiver coming. I always have something going on that I need help with. Sometimes it is my meds, my meals, my bath, getting to the store and sometimes just fun-stuff. "
