The 10 Best Home Care Agencies for Seniors in Whatcom County, WA for 2025

"We chose Right at Home Northwest Washington for my mother, and it's working out great. The communication between us and the agency is great, and every one of of the caregivers that I have met are wonderful. The price is well worth the hourly rate. The agency has been very accommodating, and they have totally filled the two hours for two days a week that we asked for. They basically provide companion care. We just needed someone for her to hang out with."

"Home Instead Mount Vernon has provided custodial care for my 95 year old mother since July, 2023. She lives in Skagit County, Washington, and I'm in Minnesota. So I depend on the Home Instead, Mount Vernon team for her care, and for my peace of mind. They've had to deal with falls, calls to paramedics, forgetfulness, some unpredictable moods, and they do it with grace and patience. Deseree in the office has been a lifeline, in keeping lines of communication open, and in offering perspective and advice to me in adjusting the care based on changed situations. She's a virtuoso! Also in the office, Keshema, Raven, Maria, all have reached out to keep me informed. In the home, I need to single out Hannah and Mary, two I've talked to the most to get updates on the current situation. Together, the Home Instead Mount Vernon team is making it possible for my mother to stay in her home. Many thanks."

"After discharge from nursing home post- emergency surgery, Eden Home Healthcare nurses came to my home to provide wound and ostomy care. They were exceptional in treating my wound, but I was told widely conflicting statements about how long nursing services would continue. There were many mistakes trying to get my necessary ostomy supplies, but nurses did their best. However, I was told that until I learned how to change ostomy myself (with wrong ostomy supplies for more than 2 weeks!) they would continue working with me past the originally prescribed 2 weeks- which had been extended. NO ONE informed me that was terminated. I still haven't learned to work with the appropriate ostomy supplies which just finally were shipped to me. I intend to file a grievance."
