This company is beyond amazing and for one main reason- Dr.Green. She was very supportive and understanding and seriously did the most to help my family out in a extremely difficult time.
Both my mom and grandfather were hospitalized at the same time, in different hospitals and we needed help getting my grandfather home care upon his release. Dr.Green did her best to find us a caregiver with a similar background and one who spoke Arabic to make my grandfather feel more comfortable. My grandfather has a fear of hospitals and Dr.Green wanted to make sure his experience was a good one. Upon securing our home care nurse, she called and texted daily to see if we needed anything and was honestly such a pleasure to work with. She truly made our experience such a easy one and made a difficult time much easier. I don’t know how we would have managed without her.
Thank you Dr.Green!

They sent 2 people over who barely spoke english and seemed to have little if any actual training. Nice enough people, but
we were paying out of pocket for trained aides, not someone needing training.
We got one good person but they left the company
The more we dealt with the office the more
questionable they seemed to us.
