    The agency made the experience positive by being caring and competent. The agency was reliable, and caring.

    They have responded and made sure someone showed up. They are really responsive and even in the days that they weren't there they make sure to send someone.

    I think a lot of it is just that the cost is very high. I think they could have better communication and follow-up.

    At this point, nothing can be done to improve. She takes care of my dad 100%, so that is good. Right now, we have a good person who is helping. But we wish she could see more of what needs to be done instead of being directed all the time.

    I really like our home care person, my dad doesn't, but it's made a big difference for us as his kids to know that he's got lunch and dinner ready for him. I would recommend them because they're very easy to work with, and all information is available online. I've never had an issue with them.

    The provider is reliable for my father. My father responds best to a pier or companion, rather than someone who just sits on the side.

    It's my husband receiving the services, the aid comes twice a week, and it has a good impact on my husband. I like that they are responsive and they sent a fine aide.

    Being here has helped her most, being present. They feed her, and help her get to the bathroom. They also entertain her. There is a lot of inconsistency in the coverage. They have some really good standard one, but when they can't come, the ones that are less qualified come.

    Provider Response

    Thank you, Carl. We know that having consistent caregivers is very important. We are constantly evaluating our staffing approach for improvements, and we have also increased our caregiver pay rates to help provide increased consistency and continuity of care. We appreciate your feedback!

    The caregiver does a great job with my mother. The services are very impactful on my mother's daily life. The agency's prices for their services keep going up. We also haven't been satisfied lately with the communication from the agency.

    Thank you so much for the praise! We are very proud of our compassionate team of caregivers and are so happy to hear that we are making a positive impact!

    So far its been positive. She really likes the help and the caregivers. So far so good but we have not been with them very long. We could directly communicate with the caregiver instead of going to through the office staff.

    It is always hard to have people in your house providing care and doing things you are used to doing. The caregiver has been able to get to know the client and his likes and dislikes. She is able to meet his needs without a tremendous amount of direction. They are very attentive to our needs and check in with us to make sure we have the services we need.

    Provider Response

    Thank you, Leslie. We are honored to be providing support and pride ourselves in matching with caregivers who truly get to know our clients!

    They are very good, and I like the people coming here, but I think we just need to get to a point where we are familiar with the new caregiver too. We have only had them for a few weeks. One person is very good, and he does the best he can. They make an effort to find the right people. That was the biggest problem when we first started. We finally found two people we like.

    Provider Response

    Thank you, Prakash! We pride ourselves on finding the best matches, and work very hard until we have the best support in place for each of our clients particular situation.

    They do perfectly well, but other providers provide the same package. There is nothing above and beyond they do compared to other agencies. I appreciate their willingness to be here early in the morning for me. They try really hard to keep me well informed about my care and who will be providing it. They try to provide people I am familiar with.

    I think they could have a little bit more assertiveness in making sure she is always exceeding her physical needs and mobility. They can continue to encourage her with her fitness level. I like that they find a good match for my mom, and I do like that their caretakers are timely and responsive with the care.
