35 Home Care Services for Seniors Serving Huntington, NY

As soon as I indicated interest, I was immediately called to see if I had any questions. From the initial consultation through the placement of a caretaker, Home Instead has been professional, courteous, informative, flexible, caring, and had a full and complete understanding of the situation. The initial evaluation was thorough and dignified. The fees are competitive within the industry. However, the quality of the caregivers are FAR SUPERIOR to what other agencies offer. The caregivers are well trained, ambitious, efficient, engaging and provide dignity to the clients. The billing department is efficient and courteous. I have used this agency on several occasions and would strongly recommend them. (read less)

I’m not someone who makes many reviews, but I felt like I needed to write one. I was very skeptical about working with another in home agency since I had multiple bad experiences. Many times I was assured not to worry and told I could be at ease, my grandmother was in good hands, but we were let down multiple times. I understand things happen, but the lack of communication and poor service gave me a bad taste about working with agencies. A friend I trusted recommended SeniorCare Companions and we decided as a family that we would give working with an agency one more chance. I’m happy that we did because SeniorCare Companions has really went above and beyond and has helped to take care of my grandmother which is why I am writing this review. I would definitely recommend working with them! (read less)

The Handmaiden Services provided my mother and my father with excellent service. My mother passed away in February 2015. The Handmaiden Services also took care of my father after cancer surgery in 2015 until he recovered and was able to provide for himself. I highly recommend Handmaiden Services to any family with elderly and sick parents who need professional care. Eventually, my father may need their assistance once again. I will not hesitate to call them. (read less)

When it was clear our 85 year old father needed support to continue to stay in his home, our research pointed us to Grace Senior Companion Care. We were very impressed with their compassion, caring and professional assessment process which ensured our father would receive the help he needed as his cognitive and physical abilities continued to decline. They are amazing in every step of the way!! (read less)

So many times aides didn’t show up &amp; we were never told they weren’t coming. Happened to have only two aides that we felt were good (which is why we gave two stars). Very frustrating dealing with Nannys For Grannys. I would not recommend. (read less)

I first discovered PearlCare through the suggestion of one of my close friends who had used the service for her late step mother as she reached the end of her life. She loved the staff and the convenience of the service so I decided to give it a shot with my grandmother. Three years ago my grandmother had a major stroke which left her paralyzed from the waste down and unable to speak. My mother and I decided that we could take care of her at her home since we lived near by, but we knew we were going to need some help. I contacted PearlCare’s companion care services and scheduled an interview to discuss my grandmothers needs. The person I spoke with was very friendly and helped me create a daily care plan for my grandmother.Using the plan we created, PearlCare regularly sent nurses to my grandmother’s home to aid her with eating, bathing, taking medicine and many other things. They were available 24 hours a day and offered very reasonable rates for their service. I would definitely recommend PearlCare to anyone who is struggling to take care of a loved one. (read less)

Ideal Home Care has been caring for my mother for the past 2 years. Words cannot express my dissatisfaction. Her aide calls in sick constantly and there are NO replacements. Also you can forget about coverage during any of the holidays. This past Christmas there was no aide for almost a week. The aide is inattentive to my mother’s needs. Basically all she does is make sure my mother takes her morning medicine. She refuses to give nebulizer treatments even though I ask her to do it time after time. The aide does not cook. If it doesn’t come out of a box she won’t make it. The aide says she cannot give my mother a shower using a transfer seat, even after I showed her how to do it. She said she would sponge bathe her instead, but doesn’t do that either. I’ve found my mother with caked on dirt on her feet and her night gowns drenched with urine. The aide doesn’t think to put cream for dry skin or trim her nails. Even if I ask, this still doesn’t get done. I’ve complained to management to no avail. For the past 6 months the manager has said they are replacing my mother’s aide because they recognize the aide is not doing her job. To this day still no replacement. The treatment is borderline neglect. Please do not use this service. (read less)
