Joan O_13 2023-08-15 Some of the aides make my life easier. They are respectful of the client, and they take good care of the family. One of the aids is always looking for something to do. Some of the aides are fantastic. I am a current client of this provider

Dr. R_8 2023-08-15 The care itself is valuable. Our long-term care insurance was skeptical about supporting right at home. I am a current client of this provider

Anonymous_7193 2023-04-20 The agency could make our experience better if they are not allowed to drive me or my husband around. I wish they were able to drive us to where we needed to go. Other than that the agency is good. I like that Right at Home is good, they are on time, and they have good people working for them. I am a current client of this provider

Robert A_32 2023-04-07 It is very positive and helpful. They help me most by giving me someone to talk to. I don't have any family in this part of the country and at my age, most of my friends have passed. It is to have someone to come and make me feel comfortable. I like them, so I would absolutely recommend them. It helps to alleviate the isolation of someone 85 years old. It works very well. I am a current client of this provider

Joan C_14 2022-06-08 They have helped take the worry off of my mind. I like that they did not stop trying to find a caregiver that was suitable for my mother. I am a current client of this provider

5 5 1

George H_17 2022-06-03 It depended on who the caregiver was we had about 6 caregivers. The agency could have stuck to the schedule that he had and could have let us know when we were going to get a new caregiver. There were a lot of things that they could have done differently. I would like to see consistent service like the aides that we got for my father. I am a past client of this provider

Anonymous_5570 2021-12-17 I knew that there was always going to be someone there, but I wasn't always confident that the caregivers were knowledgeable. On a positive note, at first we only had someone coming once a week, but when we had a medical crisis and things started going downhill, they got someone for us when we needed them. I would like to see them improve on continuity with care providers. I am a past client of this provider

Richard M_30 2021-04-07 They're not great, but they're pretty good. There's a lot that I'd like them to do but it's outside their parameter. I have a leather couch and I'd love it to be clean and restored and there's a problem where he isn't getting to it. It's a bit reluctant. The caregiver is doing a really good job, as best as he can. It's a hard job for a guy and he's done a lot. I am a current client of this provider

Danamae K 2020-12-07 The worker I have been with, even though the schedule has been changing, she has been wonderful. I think I'd like to see better communication.

Roopali R 2020-10-09 I was the sole caregiver for him, so I was able to step out and do some things while they were there. In the beginning, I had to be around and train them a little bit.

5 4 1

Jeannette P_1 2018-11-27 When I have someone come regularly, it's better for me. It's easier for when I don't have to tell the new aides what to do. I can't do vacuuming, which they help with. I have a hard time walking, and if the same maid doesn't come, I get tired. I would have her clean the bathroom. Some of the caregivers are not efficient. I am a current client of this provider

Cyrill W 2018-07-13 She could not have lived on her own and they truly made her comfortable.

Andrea S_2 2018-06-15 They prepared meals and transferred him from the wheelchair to the bathroom. The only negative I would say is that at times they had difficulty filling the time slot for the evenings. He had the same aidd the majority of mornings, but in the evenings it was a hit or miss. I don't know if they were short staffed or if it was because of the time slot that we needed coverage for. They communicated with us and did whatever we asked of them. I am a past client of this provider

Hardy M 2018-05-24 From Monday to Saturday I am very pleased. Sundays are very hard to fill, so they keep sending me different people who aren't familiar with the way we do things here. I've told the manager, and it works out well for a couple weeks. From Monday to Saturday, I have a caregiver who is wonderful, but on Sunday, Right at Home can't send someone regularly. I am a current client of this provider

Philmore A 2018-05-17 The only time I am impacted by the services is when they don't come through. We are sitting here and they won't call until the last minute to let us know.

Rosemary C 2018-04-18 We already have referred friends. It wasn't so much Right at Home, it was the particular people we had. I found them to be very responsive.

They were very caring, very compassionate, professional, and terrific people. I am a past client of this provider

Ronnie S 2018-02-26 My mom was a client of Right at Home and we had a terrific experience. They spent a lot of time making sure the caregiver and my mom were a “good fit” and went out of their way checking in with us about all details related to my mom’s care. Our caregiver was fabulous. Great customer service and very responsive, which makes all of the difference. Highly recommend. I am a past client of this provider

5 5 1

Steve G 2018-02-22 Right at Home needs to get better employees and training for them. I've had some take days off each week and who didn't even show up. The owner never calls me either. They think they're high and mighty, and I'm not happy with them. My caregivers are supposed to be the elite and college graduates.

Erin O 2018-02-05 Right at Home could have a regular caretaker and call and let me know when the caretaker is coming. They have a difficult time setting up the schedule. They've even scheduled a person and they didn't show up. It's upsetting. I have leukemia and there's no schedule. They used to be much better. I call and don't get answers from them. They say "I don't know." I am a current client of this provider

August 15, 2023

By Joan O_13

I am a current client of this provider

Some of the aides make my life easier. They are respectful of the client, and they take good care of the family. One of the aids is always looking for something to do. Some of the aides are fantastic.

The care itself is valuable. Our long-term care insurance was skeptical about supporting right at home.

The agency could make our experience better if they are not allowed to drive me or my husband around. I wish they were able to drive us to where we needed to go. Other than that the agency is good. I like that Right at Home is good, they are on time, and they have good people working for them.

By Robert A_32

I am a current client of this provider

It is very positive and helpful. They help me most by giving me someone to talk to. I don't have any family in this part of the country and at my age, most of my friends have passed. It is to have someone to come and make me feel comfortable. I like them, so I would absolutely recommend them. It helps to alleviate the isolation of someone 85 years old. It works very well.

By George H_17

I am a past client of this provider

It depended on who the caregiver was we had about 6 caregivers. The agency could have stuck to the schedule that he had and could have let us know when we were going to get a new caregiver. There were a lot of things that they could have done differently. I would like to see consistent service like the aides that we got for my father.

Provider Response

I'm sorry to learn that your experience wasn't as you expected.We were off to a bumpy start, so we at Right at Home were in constant contact with your family member to resolve any issues and put the right team in place, resulting in many warm and complimentary remarks from others. For example, other family members including the client appreciated our "more than gracious" efforts to fix issues. According to one of the family members the client "really appreciated (two caregivers) and was thrilled when he found out they were coming" and after services ended a family member said "our father...wanted to be sure we took care of you as you took such excellent care of him. We thank you!" (This was in a note written to the caregivers.)

The caregivers have done laundry for me in another building, they've done housework for me, and they've been very good companions.

Provider Response

Thank you for providing your feedback and letting us know about your concerns. We apologize that our service did not satisfy your expectations. Over several months of service we have had some caregivers call out for personal reasons, which does happen. We understand this can be frustrating, and at those times we have made every effort to replace the caregiver, and reached out to you to inform you each time, so you had the option of cancelling that day. If you have concerns about a caregiver, it is very helpful for us to hear from you on that day with your specific feedback, so we can address the issue immediately with the individual, and correct their behavior. We set a high standard for ourselves and are truly sorry to hear that standard was not met in your interaction with our business. Your happiness is our number one priority.

I knew that there was always going to be someone there, but I wasn't always confident that the caregivers were knowledgeable. On a positive note, at first we only had someone coming once a week, but when we had a medical crisis and things started going downhill, they got someone for us when we needed them. I would like to see them improve on continuity with care providers.

They're there for 12 hours a day, seven days a week, and since they've been there, my mom hasn't been readmitted to the hospital. I appreciate the professionalism of their services, and I've dealt with many people in the Newton branch.

They don't make a huge impact on her daily life. They should take their time to explain things to her though. I like that they are easy to work with.

They're not great, but they're pretty good. There's a lot that I'd like them to do but it's outside their parameter. I have a leather couch and I'd love it to be clean and restored and there's a problem where he isn't getting to it. It's a bit reluctant. The caregiver is doing a really good job, as best as he can. It's a hard job for a guy and he's done a lot.

The services provided by Right at Home have helped me by giving me the assistance I need around my house since I have a shoulder injury. I would recommend Right at Home because they follow up, they are polite, and the caregiver I have does a very good job.

The worker I have been with, even though the schedule has been changing, she has been wonderful. I think I'd like to see better communication. It has been better recently but there were things along the way that were confusing. It just made things a little harder.

I was the sole caregiver for him, so I was able to step out and do some things while they were there. In the beginning, I had to be around and train them a little bit. We had a very short experience with them. They were really responsive in finding an aide within a short time.

I do not have the availability to bring her to medical appointments, so they do that for her. They are easy to work with. I am the healthcare proxy for a family friend who is 85 and has dementia.

I called Right at Home late in the afternoon on a Friday when it was determined that my wife, Laura, needed to stay in a hospital bed on the first floor of our home. Very quickly, I was told that two people were available for Friday night through Sunday. Julia and Merna came and stayed all night with Laura, and they were superb, very caring, and compassionate.

Provider Response

Thank you for your feedback. Consistency of caregiving has always been a focus of our efforts. There are some times and days that are more challenging than others in terms of coverage. Weekends indeed may introduce a challenge from the staffing prospective, especially when shifts are short. Sometimes when a client’s schedule changes frequently, consistent staffing becomes difficult to achieve. We at Right At Home are working very hard to improve the situation whenever possible, and truly appreciate clients maintaining a consistent schedule.

When I have someone come regularly, it's better for me. It's easier for when I don't have to tell the new aides what to do. I can't do vacuuming, which they help with. I have a hard time walking, and if the same maid doesn't come, I get tired. I would have her clean the bathroom. Some of the caregivers are not efficient.

She could not have lived on her own and they truly made her comfortable. They clearly hire people that can make someone as comfortable as possible at a time in life that it is easy to be dismissive.

They prepared meals and transferred him from the wheelchair to the bathroom. The only negative I would say is that at times they had difficulty filling the time slot for the evenings. He had the same aidd the majority of mornings, but in the evenings it was a hit or miss. I don't know if they were short staffed or if it was because of the time slot that we needed coverage for. They communicated with us and did whatever we asked of them.

From Monday to Saturday I am very pleased. Sundays are very hard to fill, so they keep sending me different people who aren't familiar with the way we do things here. I've told the manager, and it works out well for a couple weeks. From Monday to Saturday, I have a caregiver who is wonderful, but on Sunday, Right at Home can't send someone regularly.

The only time I am impacted by the services is when they don't come through. We are sitting here and they won't call until the last minute to let us know. They have one or two aides that are exceptional, and the other two I would not recommend at all.

We already have referred friends. It wasn't so much Right at Home, it was the particular people we had. I found them to be very responsive. We said that the caregivers we had were excellent.

They were very caring, very compassionate, professional, and terrific people.

My mom was a client of Right at Home and we had a terrific experience. They spent a lot of time making sure the caregiver and my mom were a “good fit” and went out of their way checking in with us about all details related to my mom’s care. Our caregiver was fabulous. Great customer service and very responsive, which makes all of the difference. Highly recommend.

Right at Home needs to get better employees and training for them. I've had some take days off each week and who didn't even show up. The owner never calls me either. They think they're high and mighty, and I'm not happy with them. My caregivers are supposed to be the elite and college graduates. They are supposed to be prompt, and Right at Home needs to be accurate in calling people back.

Provider Response

As the owner of Right at Home in Newton, MA I want to thank you for your feedback as we constantly seek to improve the quality of our services. While I can’t address the specifics of your reason for wanting to speak with me I am aware that the Director of Operations was in contact with you on multiple occasions to address your concerns. The caregivers are reference and background checked, oriented, trained, and supervised in your home. They however are not required to have a college degree. I agree that caregivers should be prompt, and unfortunately unforeseen events such as New England weather and illness may cause caregivers to call out. As you may be aware, we make every attempt to replace them. Even though we do our best to provide a qualified replacement with skills specific to your needs from the pool of available caregivers, this may not always be possible, especially upon short notice. Please be assured that we are committed to providing high quality homecare to you, as we have done for thousands of clients for 15 years. Vladimir Zarkhin, President and Owner

Right at Home could have a regular caretaker and call and let me know when the caretaker is coming. They have a difficult time setting up the schedule. They've even scheduled a person and they didn't show up. It's upsetting. I have leukemia and there's no schedule. They used to be much better. I call and don't get answers from them. They say "I don't know."

Provider Response

Thank you very much for your comments and feedback as we constantly seek to improve the quality of our services. I’m sorry to learn that you feel communication with our office wasn’t as effective as it could be. I will contact you to discuss the communication issues you have called to my attention so we may address them. My goal is to ensure you’re satisfied with your schedule and our response to any changes in the schedule. We hope to provide the very best care possible and want to ensure your satisfaction. Again, thank you. Sara Miller, RN, Vice President of Operations

We are sorry you got such an impression. Without knowing the specifics of your situation it will be difficult to address. We do provide consistent training to our caregivers, and if you think we missed on some aspects of it, we appreciate you contacting the office to discuss. As a general practice we do not schedule our caregivers for more than 40 hours weekly. We very well understand the challenges of caregiving as a career, and do our best to make sure our caregivers preserve their work-life balance.

My first two caregivers weren't the best, but I would recommend Right at Home to my friends because of my current caregiver. Right at Home has made my life easier in every way that you could mention.

I would tell others that Right at Home has provided me with great care. The services have allowed me to take showers, which I cannot do alone.

I have been a client of this provider more than once and for good reason! They have always provided personalized, quality care, and the agency staff are extremely accessible for any questions or needs regarding my elders or families needs. I strongly urge anyone looking for at home care for their loved one to give them a try. They are quick to set up services (in a calm, efficient way- no stress!) and they treated my elder and myself with patience, kindness and respect. It was truly a great experience working with them on all levels!

Claudine was a very nice, competent caregiver to my husband while we were away at a family wedding. We were very happy with Right at Home! Will definitely recommend you!

I would like to thank Right at Home, Matt, Mia and especially Denise for the outstanding service and compassion in caring for my mother. They were incredibly helpful and flexible when my mother needed more help in emergency situations, which was extremely comforting to me as I live out state. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a home health aide.

Right at Home is doing a fabulous job with my dad, who recently fell and hurt his hip, and I am so appreciative. You have bailed me out of a difficult situation. Dad was resistant at first, but now says that he really likes having his helpers around!
