71 Home Care Services for Seniors Serving Suffolk County, NY

I currently have Home Instead Merrick helping with my husband’s care. They help out with showering and preparing lunch or breakfast, whichever is needed — but it’s mainly lunch. They see that he’s dressed properly because he puts on daytime clothes at night and nighttime clothes in the daytime. They check after him and clean up if needed. They also do light housework, vacuuming, and take him for a walk when they can. Today he has a dental appointment, and the caregiver will be accompanying us. It’s his first visit to that dentist so I’m going, but the caregiver will be driving us and acting as a companion to help him understand what’s going on. They do whatever I ask them to; sometimes it’s an errand, and sometimes just getting lunch for him if I don’t have anything prepared. It’s whatever I need at the time, like washing clothes and folding them from the dryer, and things like that. Whenever I have to speak with the manager or the people at the office, they’re always very kind, very thorough, understanding, and easily reachable, so I’ve had no problem whatsoever. I’ve only been with them maybe three months, but they have been very responsive. If somebody could not come in, which happened a couple of times, they would let me know ahead of time and determine with me whether or not I wanted a replacement. I have not been with them that long, but I’m very pleased with them. (read less)

I’ve had an excellent experience with Ellison Care from day one. I was stranded with somebody to take care of my father in-law who was not well and living at home. They called me back at 5.30 in the morning before noon on the same day with an unbelievable snow storm. They’ve been great! They’re very reliable. We have two caregivers. One comes 4 days a week and one comes and the other 3 days a week. The one who spent most of the time with my father is like family. She’s very loving and she takes such good care of my father in-law. She really cares for him. I really cannot imagine not having her. I met the owners and they were very down to earth. They really try to meet the needs of the family and the patient. We recommended them to a family member who needs care and it’s also working out very well. (read less)

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)
