Very happy with routine caregiver and nurse. My wife looks forward to both their visits.

We have been with 2nd family for 3 years. My parents planned very well for this stage of their lives. Because they have LTC insurance, my 84 year old father was able to stay in his home until his death last year. Of course, this would not have been possible without the help of 2nd Family. After my father passed, my mother was, and is, in need of help. It was a seamless transition to have 2nd Family take care of her as well. Marian, mom's caretaker is awesome. She takes care of everything. She communicates with me daily to keep me in the loop of what goes on. I have total peace of mind knowing she's there. Everyone that I deal with at 2nd Family, Josh, Chad and Kelli, out RN, are very professional and a pleasure to work with.

2nd Family was there when my family couldn't be, and it was such a relief to know that I could depend on them! They were all professional, courteous, and tended to my every need.

2nd Family is the best company that we have used to help care for both of my parents. We have used them for over 3 years now and, with their help, we were able to keep my father living with us until he passed away this past May. This was a promise we had made to him and we were only able to keep thanks to the caregivers from 2nd Family. We now have caregivers a few times a week for my mother and they are like family and so incredibly helpful, loving, caring and professional! We tried other companies before finding 2nd Family and were so dissatisfied that we almost gave up the search. We are so glad we kept looking!

I've had Darselle as my provider for most of the last 2 months. She's a self-starter that doesn't have to be asked to do tasks. She is personable and a pleasure to work with. I would definitely recommend her to anyone else.

Chad and the staff at 2nd Family have been very accommodating to our family. Our Mom is 90 years young and we needed additional support to help her around the home. The caregivers provided have been excellent and assist with preparing meals, light house work and companionship. The family portal is easy to use. We recommend 2nd Family to others who need help with caring for loved ones.
Provider Response

I've been happy with 2nd Family. When the owner came during his first visit, he brought a nurse with him. He was very informative, and the nurse was pleasant. They have a patient portal where my children and I can check on the costs that we are being billed and the notations that the caregiver is making about her stay with my husband. They are the most expensive in the area, but they are very open and have the features that we like.

I am currently a social worker who has referred 2nd family over 100 times over the last several years. From a facility standpoint, 2nd Family is the best agency for my patients who are being discharged. They have the best quality of care, and they are excellent at reporting back to me the condition of our patients post discharge. If you want the best care for your family member when they are having challenges, you need to call 2nd Family!
Provider Response
Thank you for the kind words, Diana. We enjoy working with you and your families to provide the best care possible!

Our caregiver has been phemomenal. She's gotten my mother to do things I didn't even think she could do. She's caring, attentive and goes out of her way to bring her own activities for my mom to do. We couldn't be happier.

My entire family have cherished the help given to us for our parents. They were extremely helpful during my father's last few weeks before he passed and are continuing with my mother. We know they will be even more involved with mom as time goes on. Very kind with big hearts.

From the start, my experience with 2nd Family has been excellent. Everyone - management, caregivers and office staff - has been easily accessible, very pleasant and most helpful. This is a welcomed and refreshing change from other such agencies with which I've dealt with in the past. I have no problem recommending 2nd Family to anyone needing in-home care for their loved ones.

Chad and his crew at 2nd Family are my mother's 2nd Family. They had a very friendly and caring approach the whole time we were convincing my mother that she needed a caregiver. It was hard on my mom to admit she was aging and needed help, but Chad assured her that she'd not only be getting a caregiver. She got a companion, who actually listens to her. It's been great being able to enjoy the good, fun times with my mom instead of worrying about having to bathe and clothe her.

About 2nd Family
A family-owned business, 2nd Family began as a result of our own experience in searching for in-home care for our own loved one – our grandmother. We discovered first-hand that there was a huge void between the level of care available and the level of care that we wanted for our own loved one. It was frustrating and emotionally draining. Having gone through the process of trying to find someone to care for our loved one, we immediately felt compelled to fill that void and help others dealing with similar situations by offering our clients caregivers with superior training who have a heart for what they do and the tools needed to do it with excellence. 2nd Family is an award-winning company who truly manages your care process every step of the way. We specialize in Alzheimer's and Dementia Care
