He would have been in a nursing home. They provided companionship.
I have already recommended BrightStar to other people. They are being mentioned in the obituary that he was able to stay home because of them.

There is some medical care that they do and we feel pretty comfortable with them. They don't need supervision. They know what they are doing.
Everyone who has come in has been very helpful. The nurses and administration are pretty satisfactory.

Just being here was a big help to me, but one of the caregivers helped me when I had to set up a lot of medicines for the week and it was super helpful.
I like the quality of the people that were sent. The people were very well trained and excellent. Everything was perfect.
If I needed help again I would call on BrightStar Care before other agencies.

They helped by being flexible with the schedule.

The caregivers need to have better judgement calls. My caregiver left at three and at 3:20 I have to call 911 because my mom was unresponsive.
The caregivers need to communicate with us what is going on.

In the last couple weeks, people sometimes don't show up or show up late. It's prevented me from working.
My only problem with them is that they have problems filling the schedule properly.

Finding a really good aide who is well trained is the most important thing we needed.

They're caring for my 93 year old mother that has dementia. They care about her like their own mother, and they are conscious of all her needs. It truly takes a lot off of my plate.
They have great followup, great nursing oversight, and great care. The woman I have is terrific.

They need to be more consistent in their shifts and not call off last minute.
They have issues with staffing and caregivers showing up for their shifts.

They came on time, it was extremely expensive though.
I think they could get the nurses to be a little more professional.

They were essential at the time because I needed respite. We got whatever we asked for.

They left a folder of information to whoever signed on for an eight hour shift. I would like to see more detail about my dad in it.
We needed someone in a short time frame, and they were here an hour later. They came quickly.

My mom got sick suddenly, and I needed the service desperately. We needed them there 24/7 to care for my mom. It meant a great deal to my siblings and me, who had been trying to take care of everything before we hired BrightStar Care.
When I was looking for someone, they responded very quickly. It was the owner who called back, and he proactively answered my questions.

The problem was more about staffing and the availability of staff on short notice. I know that there isn't much they can do about that, but it was disappointing.

They could have engaged her more in activities. My mother would call me and ask me about making lunch and they would play on their phone.
We had an issue with the person we got at first. It seemed like she would be a perfect fit, but she would leave early and she wouldn't engage with my mother. They brought another person and we hear she had an emergency and someone else showed up. We now think we have the person we want.
January 10, 2019

I don't have much anxiety about leaving her alone. The caregivers could be more on time.
I would like the communication to be improved.

I give it 1 star just because I have to select 1 but thumbs down is my rating. This place sucks with 24 hr care, hasn't been 2 years I've had their service and had 200+ people come to my house. I've had nurses who need help with taking care of issues like PTSD come take care of me and it's like i have to take care of them, a lot of unprofessional people like nurses who don't even know what a pressure cuff is etc. The night shift people come in shower caps, fuzzy slippers and clothing ready to sleep and is what they do. I'm a paraplegic and need to be repositioned every 2 hrs while in bed and if I dont scream their name to wake them up they'll sleep through the whole shift. The owner Chris all he worries about is a paycheck and sends anyone to the patients house just to cover his ass and say his employee was here, I've had my narcotics stolen(a out 60 dilated pills and 20+valium), their first nurse overdosed me on valium to where I had 4 breathes per minute when emts arrived. It's only a few good employees they have and it suck they gave to work for this poor service giving company. Overall from 1-10 I'll give it a 0.5 just to be nice.

They needed to be consistent in the way they documented things and how often they did it every day.
They did what they said they would do, except they stopped documenting things as the nights went on.

The biggest problem we have is that we do not see the same person on a regular basis. New people are extremely difficult for both ends.
I would like consistent help from them.

Without them, she wouldn't have her daily feeding and she wouldn't be surviving.
They are professional and they worked with us on a difficult discharge from the hospital. They are the best agency I have worked with yet.

They needed to be trained more and be more outgoing.
I did not feel that the caregivers they sent were that well trained with Alzheimer's.

I am so happy to see them on Friday because that means I get to leave the house.
They are constantly cleaning things around the house for us when they are here, like the bathroom, kitchen, and laundry.

They were professional and courteous. They had the adequate staffing to meet the needs of my family. It was just what we had asked for. We were with another agency that we were not happy with so we switched to BrightStar Care and they met all our needs.

BrightStar Care is a great organization and they are very responsive. BrightStar Care has made life easier because I needed my father to transition and readjust.
