"The In Home Helpers from Barberton were wonderful. The girls that came and helped my mother through the night were so kind and patient with her while she was in the late stage of dementia. The company was easy to work with and worked so hard to meet our needs. I will definitely use them again!"

"Tootie is wonderful. I could not live without services. The aide is wonderful. I would rather pay for Right at Home vs. Medicare. I am very satisfied in Cleveland Heights."

"Reliable staff, thoroughly background checked, did not have commit to a lot of hours per week. Office staff always available."

"We've been using Home Instead for a couple of months wice a week for my mother-in-law. They visit with her and do a little bit of cooking and house cleaning. She's doing fairly well with them."

"This agency was able to consistently provide caregivers 24/7 to allow their patient to stay at home until the end of her life. The caregivers were always kind, even when the patient was not. They made sure she ate, took her medications and remained safe over several months. Highly recommend."

"I'm using Home Instead Senior Care and the provider's name is Alicia. It's been about two years and it's one day a week for three hours. The agency itself is very good. They work with me very well. If I need schedule adjustments or if they have schedule adjustments, they always communicate with me and let me know. They match me up very good with the caregiver. I've had two permanent caregivers so far and both were good. One I think is no longer with the company, but the one I have now is awesome. I get housekeeping. I get help with vacuuming my floors, cleaning my bathrooms, making my bed and things like that. No personal care. I think it's a very good company."

"The lady from Home Helpers of Canton does the grocery shopping for me, my laundry, light housekeeping, and just any little thing I needed to be done around the house. She is excellent. To me, she's just tops and she's super nice. She shows up on time regularly, too. The only problem she ever had was when she got sick one time, so she couldn't come. Otherwise, she's always on time. She's always nicely groomed and always cheerful. It's nice to have a caring person like her in this time of COVID."

"Erika, her caregiver, was outstanding in that she was very caring and responsive, had a personable and easygoing approach, was hard-working and dependable, and made suggestions that were very helpful and appropriate. She helped her successfully transition from Rehab to Assisted Living. The agency was responsive to her needs and desired changes."

"The utmost professionalism began with our first contact. Both management and staff respond immediately to questions, changes that are requested, and work diligently to assess client and match caregiver to the needs of loved one. I have received the most attentive care, support and information about my loved one's care."

"Right at Home provides care for my brother who is a disabled vet with Parkinson’s. His caretaker Denise is the BEST possible caretaker he could have. She is kind, caring, patient, efficient, and understands his needs and personality. Could not ask for a better caretaker! Kelly has been a great help with scheduling and communication with any circumstances that may arise."

"I was provided this service as a gift from several family members. I had extensive,quite debilitating shoulder surgery and the help my caregiver provided was excellent in every way, I am an RN and have never experienced or needed care like this before. Every person I dealt with from the billing person, manager and my wonderful caregiver was kind, courteous and compassionate. Having been a nurse for over 39 years, I have seen many caregivers without that compassion and dedication. I was so very grateful to my family for doing this for me and the staff of Homestead Senior Care for providing this service. I have recommended and will continue to recommend this service to any i meet who might need it. God bless you all. "

"My sisters and I were SO impressed with the care we received from Always Best Care Cleveland South for our father. The caregivers were experienced, friendly, reliable and trustworthy. We were relieved to know that we could count on the help dad needed since our lives are so busy as well. Even when we had last minute changes to our crazy schedules, we'd call the scheduling office and they would accommodate our needs. Our minds were so at ease knowing we could rely on Always Best Care. Speaking for my sisters as well, we all would highly recommend Always Best Care to anyone looking for in-home care for a loved one."

"We have been using the in-home care services of Home Instead - Massillon, OH, for my husband, on and off, since early this year. He is totally bedfast and has an electric wheelchair, and they help with bathing, get his meal in the morning, change the bed linens, and help with bathroom issues. We have an external catheter that he uses, and they're willing to take care of that for us. They also do light housework if I have something that they can help me with, like vacuuming or dusting, and doing his laundry and anything associated with his laundry. If I'm away, I also feel better if somebody's here with him. I've encountered several of their aides, and they've all been very good. You pay for the quality of work you get, so it's worth the money for me to know that he's getting good care that I can't do myself. I'm 76 and have some health issues of my own, so it's just a security if there's a day that I'm not really feeling like doing a lot. I can also use my energy for other things, so it's very helpful that they're here whenever I need to be away. I think they really try hard, and when little things happen, it's something that they take care of right away."
