I worked with Comfort Keepers for my mother for over a year. We had a hands-down excellent experience with them. We hired them as in-home care from 11 a.m. until after dinner. The caregiver would come in at 11, prepare lunch for my mom, do light housework and entertain her. They were just wonderful and they were sweet to her. They took care of the medical appointment she had, they managed her medication, and they made dinner for her. They stayed with her through dinner and put the breakfast in the refrigerator for her so that when she wakes up in the morning, she could get into the kitchen and make herself a cup of coffee and have a little breakfast. It worked out beautifully for quite awhile until her health started failing. That’s what Jennifer, our caregiver, provided for us when we were using her through Comfort Keepers. She really was eyes and ears for the family because none of her children live in the Virginia area. We really needed someone to organize everything. She watched the house, she watched the mails, she watched the meds, she watched my mother, she took care of grocery shopping, she did all of her driving for her and took her everywhere. She was a lifesaver. In terms with working the administration, they were very good, too. We went through 3 or 4 different women before we landed on Jennifer, but they worked really hard to find the right kind of match for my mom and made sure that the caregiver was what my mother was comfortable with. She became part of the family over the course of the year.

Hi Thomas,
My family had planned a Decmber trip to New York which seemed to be in jeopardy because of my release from the hospital. Upon leaving the hospital, after 2 emergency surgeries, I contacted Homewell for your services. This was on a Thursday with the care needed beginning Friday morning at 6:00 a.m. providing daily/overnight services for the weekend. I thought I would have to call several places on a list the hospital had provided me before finding one that could accommodate my needs. Turns out Homewell was the 1st and only place I contacted.
V was more than professional in everything she did for me. She not only made me comfortable with conversation, she was prompt with everything she did. V has a wonderful spirit and a heart for the care and comfort of others. I truly appreciated her and could not give enough compliments for how I feel about her.

My mother had Alzheimer and in bad health after she had a fall and broke her ankle. She required a lot of care and I did it myself for the first year but I need to have some more help. I called a couple of different agencies and I liked Kaltoon. I thought she was real helpful and she was local and I like that. She just went above and beyond the call of duty and I really enjoyed working with her. The caregiver was wonderful- Lulu was terrific! She helped my mom with pretty much of everything she needed. She was extremely good and was very compatible with my mom. I couldn’t ask for anyone better.

Ashburn Home Care Resources
Home care services are only one of the pieces needed for seniors to gracefully age in place. There are many services and programs that are low-cost or free, that enable seniors to enjoy an independent lifestyle in the comfort of their own home, such as help with home modifications, meal delivery services, and more.
