"Care givers have been helping me during a very serious illness. They arrive on time, provide whatever help I need, and are pleasant and caring. I wholeheartedly recommend this agency."

"We are letting my mom stay at her home right now. We got a service called Comfort Keepers In Home Care that's checking on her, and helping with errands and stuff at home. It's the one in Knoxville. My mom lives in Sevierville and that's outside their area but they do have people that work in that area too. They are expanding outside the Knoxville area and they charge a little more when they're outside their main service areas. They come and do a care consultation and they see exactly what the person needs, but they can also do a little bit of everything. They can do mail preparation, light housekeeping, run errands, and pick up medications at the pharmacy. They can also go get groceries. They do a 4-hour minimum so we get 4 hours on days that they come. The lady that did the care consultation was a nurse but usually, the people they have doing the services are not medical people. They help people keep up with their medication but they're not nurses so they don't do home health. They help people stay in their homes by helping them do any chores or tasks or errands that they need to be done. We've just started and it's been pretty good. The lady that came for mom was very nice and very patient, and mom likes their service. "

"Home Helpers of Knoxville has been there for me for the last several months. They have addressed every issue I requested. From helping with my personal needs to housekeeping. They have worked with the VA for me. Initially, they had a hard time placing a Home Helper with me due to my rural area I live in but within 1 week they had it covered. My helper never misses her shifts. She makes sure I do not miss my medical appointments. With Diabetes, Parkinson's, and using a walker as my medical conditions I am a handful, but my helper is always there. I would hesitate recommending Home Helpers of Knoxville for anyone in need of a home healthcare helper for their family member, they are the best! Jerry"

"My overall experience with The Home Option is excellent. This is for my friend. They help him with basic activities of daily living like taking him out, cooking for him, bathing, dressing, medication reminders, and setting medications up. There is always someone there, and they don't leave us without anybody. Everyone that came in was very knowledgeable of my friend and his needs. I would recommend them to a friend or family member."

"Home Watch cared for my mother 24/7 for two and a half years. For the most part, I was very pleased with them. My mother had several caregivers who truly became part of the family, and I trusted them 100% with her. They were/are wonderful, kind, caring, and competent people. We did have some bumps along the road, but when I brought the problems to the owners' attention, they listened and responded. One of the rough spots had to do with the fact that Home Watch changed ownership about mid-way through the period that they took care of my mother, so we had to establish new communication channels. All in all, Home Watch took excellent care of my mother, and I would highly recommend them."

"We had someone come and give my mother-in-law a bath twice a week from Gentiva Home Health Care. We had a nurse that came every week to change her wrap. She had bath, food, supplies, laundry, and everything. It is reasonably priced. Gentiva sends out nurses, physical therapists, and bath people. They were all very well trained with good customer service skills, and they knew just how to talk to an old lady like she was small child and told her what she needed to hear. They knew how to handle her, what to do and what not to do. They were excellent, professional, and had good personalities. "

"We used East Tennessee Personal Care for about a month. They found a caregiver for us immediately as soon as we got approved. They were very good, and I was very pleased. I was concerned when I had to change agencies because we had to move. And we had to change people. But I was very happy with the care that they gave my mother. They were very good with her. We had three dependable caregivers, seven days a week. I felt comfortable leaving mother with them. They made my mother's last days better and enabled us to keep her at home. "

"I have been using Visiting Angels. They are easy to work with, and I have a helper coming three days a week for four hours a day to sit with my husband who is disabled. She does little house chores, like she would take the clothes out of the dryer, she helps feed him as he is handicapped, and she swept the floor a few times, but mostly I just want her to be there with him. They are excellent and very helpful."
