    They allowed her to be taken care of by people that knew what they were doing and they were able to give me break during the day. I think the quality of the head nurse and the staff is were outstanding.

    We have been working with a different agency, and the woman that we had as an aide before was unbelievably good, but unfortunately, she had to leave because her mother was terribly ill. As we looked for a new person, I knew that no one would be as good as she was. The person that we have now is good, but she is not as good as our first caregiver. I cannot hold that against her since nobody is as good as Pat. I like their billing system.

    He is deteriorating, but it is not the fault of the caregivers. There was one a caregiver that quit abruptly. My husband is getting worse. The caregivers are there for five hours. They are helpful because they are helping him through part of the day. I like that they are very reliable because they send good people that have been screened.

    It has been a great, 100% impact. My husband has had a great impact as well. They have taken him into consideration and given him support. I would recommend them right from the get-go. I like that they are very helpful but they are not intrusive. They recognize each patient as they come in and take care of them. I am independent and private and they recognize that about me. I have not had to tell them that. I am very pleased with the services so far.

    It would be difficult for me to find caregivers on my own without any kind of experience in doing that. I know it's the agency's responsibility to provide the caregiver, so I know that's one chore I don't have to deal with. They've been pretty good about finding caregivers, and sometimes on short notice they've done a good job as well. Overall, I would definitely recommend them.
