"My husband and I took our grandma to visit some relatives in Kemah, TX that she hasn’t seen two weeks ago. Unfortunately, she suffered extreme fatigue during the course of the trip and had to stay at our relatives’ home for a week. Houston Home Companions was highly recommended. Belle and her caring staff wasted no time looking for someone who watched my grandma, prepared her food, kept company and ensured that her blood pressure was constantly monitored. Despite my grandma’s condition, we still enjoyed our vacation. Thank you Houston Home Companions. "

"Visiting Angels - Webster, TX is assisting me when I shower. My shower head won't reach the place I sit in, so they'll hand it to me, and then they put it up, and then I'll lather up. Then they hand it to me again, and they make sure I'm being safe. They also help me fix my meals. Today, I told the lady, "OK, the sheets hadn't been changed for a week." So, she changed them, washed them, and folded them. I kind of got some towels wet taking a shower, so she put those in the washer before she left. I told her, "I'd put them in the dryer.", because it was about time for her to leave. They're very pleasant and very nice. I would recommend them. Their pricing is kind of like all the others, but it might be a little bit higher. It's $29 an hour. Today, the lady was a little late, but this was her first day working for Visiting Angels, and I don't think she knew the area I live in very much. She couldn't find my house. So, I opened the door, she was standing there, I waved at her, and she came on in. She was 18 minutes late, and so they required her to stay 18 minutes over."

"My dad is currently in an independent living community, and we hired in-home care from Sheila's Angels to see if that will keep him independent for a little bit longer. They've been extremely helpful, providing assistance with his daily activities and daily chores. The person they've assigned to my dad is very friendly, warm, kind, and patient. The communication has been really good. They call regularly to check on the person assigned to my dad. Any time there's a change in schedule or changes in staffing, they call and let me know. My dad is handicapped. He has cerebral palsy, so they provide assistance with bathing, household chores, possibly getting him in and out of the bed, or in and out of a chair. My dad is confined to a wheelchair. We're paying for twelve hours a week, so they come out three times a week. The aides are very friendly and patient. My dad likes to do things his way, so they've been very patient and very helpful with that."

"The representative came to our home the day before she was going to be taking care of my mom, (who has Alzheimers), to meet her. She was very sweet and I have not seen my mom smile or laugh that much in a long time. The next day when she came, mom told me after she left, that she was very sweet and she enjoyed her being there. The representative kept mom engaged by playing a game with her, and this is the first home care person mom was happy with. They offer a lot of services and their pricing is very reasonable.
