Deana I 2020-11-16 At this point I do not know a whole lot, we are probably going to put my father in hospice. I know this is tough for anyone. I think for the most part the kids that come are pretty good. We have had a few issues with the girls wearing headphones and not hearing my parents. Those are a few of the pieces.

Anonymous_4001 2020-08-17 They were helpful. There were a few jobs I don't think they enjoyed doing. I had a bad experience with my first caregiver.

5 5 1

Tim W_5 2020-06-16 They need to be sensitive to my mother's needs, supportive, caring, and experienced. When my caregiver left on vacation they provided someone that was not a good fit. It was a disaster. I hope they are doing a better job with screenings. The other issue I have is the cost because they went up in price. I can't find any justification on the cost of services that we have. I am a current client of this provider

5 4 1

Jeffrey M_2 2020-05-18 They help me get in and out of the shower, which used to be a challenge for me. For quite a few weeks I had not been able to rest in my bed because I couldn't raise myself without a lot of discomfort. After talking to people at BrightStar Care they recommended I get a lift recliner chair. That has made a big difference. In my first interview with the owner, Matt, I saw they were very caring and respectful of my wishes. I am very happy with them. I am a current client of this provider

Anonymous_3696 2020-04-16 I could not have done it without them. I had a wound and I could not reach the wound so I needed some help. There was a fill in nurse that was pretty new to the company and she was a little over eager to prove herself and she would tell me a lot of things that I did not need to know about. I am a past client of this provider

Shirley B_13 2019-07-12 They give me time for me. I know that my husband is with someone that will take good care of him while l go do something that I want to.

Beverly S_3 2019-06-21 BrightStar Care has helped me the most by moving my husband, because he can't walk. Sometimes the caregivers showed up, and sometimes they would not. I am a current client of this provider

5 5 1

Steven C_5 2019-05-14 I'm able to receive health care in my environment instead of going to a VA facility in St. Louis or elsewhere. I would recommend them because I've had good results with the people that come out. They're very considerate, and I've been impressed. I'm very pleased with the CNA type job and the cooking and cleaning they do. The nursing concept with antibiotics in the afternoon has been nice. They could have a little more exact timing in the afternoon. That would be nice, but I know I'm not the only one receiving services. As long as I get my IV, I'm good. I am a current client of this provider

Carol G_6 2019-02-19 My dad said that his caregiver was a keeper. She did a great job once my father had passed away. She did a great job of taking over by contacting the hospice nurse. She actually helped clean him up for the funeral, too. We only had them for two nights. The caregiver did a good job while we used them. It was a difficult situation. I am a past client of this provider

5 5 1

Anonymous_1451 2019-02-19 Most of the people did their job and were pleasant to be around when they were here, but they didn't always send me caregivers that fit my needs. It seems like they didn't really care about me as a client and the needs that I had. I would have liked consistency in the care provided for me. I felt like they left me hanging. I am a past client of this provider

5 3 1

Steven L_1 2019-01-24 They could have better quality of caregivers. They need to match the caregiver's needs to the client. They need better communication from the agency to the clients. They also need to better match the caregiver to the client and have better training for the caregiver. I am a current client of this provider

Anonymous_1034 2018-12-17 They could have hired people who knew what they were doing. The caregivers could have been better trained. The caregivers were lazy, and they would sit around. I am a past client of this provider

5 1 1

Patti D_1 2018-12-13 He can't do any daily living activities as well as he used to, so they help with cleaning and making sure he eats his meals while she is there.

5 5 1

Jane _5 2018-11-27 They did dishes, folded clothes, and watched my mother which was a huge help because I have to work. There was a little bit of confusion about who was going to finish up my mother's care. I am a past client of this provider

5 4 1

Freda M_1 2018-11-27 We have them for a few hours each day, it has helped, but hasn't changed what is happening, so I would say it's average. I appreciate the work that they do with the veterans. I am a current client of this provider

5 4 1

Kim H_3 2018-10-19 She did not want to interact with caregivers and they did not do what they were supposed to do. The management was bad. They did not know my mom has dementia, and the nurse manager did not enter any of the notes when they came. I am a past client of this provider

5 1 1

Franklin J 2018-10-19 They relieve some of the pressure off of me. They should just keep doing what they're doing. There is always room for improvement. I am a current client of this provider

5 4 1

William B_2 2018-09-24 Some of them are better than others, so sometimes it's nice. I have one problem, and that is that I get a different person every time they come. I would really like the person who comes on Monday to come more often. I am a current client of this provider

5 4 1

VAMC ( 2018-09-17 We would like it if the same person came each time, long enough for me to feel that they are here long enough. We have been pretty aggravated with them, but we appreciate their help greatly. We haven't had the same caregiver at all, but the help is excellent. We only have them for about two days a week. We'd rather have the same caregiver. I am a current client of this provider

5 4 1

Carol R_8 2018-08-22 They are encouraging of what I need to do and are not to afraid to step forward.

John N_7 2018-08-15 They are able to help us with the activities of daily living, like bathing. I don't know what kind of training the caregivers have.

5 4 1

5 5 1

Anonymous 2018-03-13 We have had a couple of times where there has been a mix-up in times when the caregivers needed to show up. I think some of the problems were more with the management and not the caregivers. Most of the caregivers we have had have been very good at taking care of my loved ones. I don't have to worry as much about my loved ones being alone at night because of their caregiver. I am a current client of this provider

Anonymous 2018-01-10 When we started, the particular person who was doing our scheduling had an attitude. When my loved one had a fall we needed more hours and the scheduler would not answer so I called again and they said that they had not gotten to t it yet. Then I spoke with a much nicer person and they said they would help and that we would have someone quickly. There are many great people within the company, I have just had a few bad experiences. If our caregiver keeps working the way they are then the services will be getting much better. The other caregivers we have had have not been what we expected. I am a current client of this provider

At this point I do not know a whole lot, we are probably going to put my father in hospice. I know this is tough for anyone. I think for the most part the kids that come are pretty good. We have had a few issues with the girls wearing headphones and not hearing my parents. Those are a few of the pieces.

Make sure the staff is trained a little better on cleaning the house. The caregivers and nurses need to put stuff away when they are done. The people on staff are considerate, kind, and helpful at times.

They were helpful. There were a few jobs I don't think they enjoyed doing. I had a bad experience with my first caregiver. She came to my door during the COVID-19 crisis without a mask and was coughing. I called bout this situation and the office told me she was supposed to be wearing a mask.

They need to be sensitive to my mother's needs, supportive, caring, and experienced. When my caregiver left on vacation they provided someone that was not a good fit. It was a disaster. I hope they are doing a better job with screenings. The other issue I have is the cost because they went up in price. I can't find any justification on the cost of services that we have.

They help me get in and out of the shower, which used to be a challenge for me. For quite a few weeks I had not been able to rest in my bed because I couldn't raise myself without a lot of discomfort. After talking to people at BrightStar Care they recommended I get a lift recliner chair. That has made a big difference. In my first interview with the owner, Matt, I saw they were very caring and respectful of my wishes. I am very happy with them.

I could not have done it without them. I had a wound and I could not reach the wound so I needed some help. There was a fill in nurse that was pretty new to the company and she was a little over eager to prove herself and she would tell me a lot of things that I did not need to know about.

I'm able to receive health care in my environment instead of going to a VA facility in St. Louis or elsewhere. I would recommend them because I've had good results with the people that come out. They're very considerate, and I've been impressed. I'm very pleased with the CNA type job and the cooking and cleaning they do. The nursing concept with antibiotics in the afternoon has been nice. They could have a little more exact timing in the afternoon. That would be nice, but I know I'm not the only one receiving services. As long as I get my IV, I'm good.

My dad said that his caregiver was a keeper. She did a great job once my father had passed away. She did a great job of taking over by contacting the hospice nurse. She actually helped clean him up for the funeral, too. We only had them for two nights. The caregiver did a good job while we used them. It was a difficult situation.

Most of the people did their job and were pleasant to be around when they were here, but they didn't always send me caregivers that fit my needs. It seems like they didn't really care about me as a client and the needs that I had. I would have liked consistency in the care provided for me. I felt like they left me hanging.

They could have better quality of caregivers. They need to match the caregiver's needs to the client. They need better communication from the agency to the clients. They also need to better match the caregiver to the client and have better training for the caregiver.

He can't do any daily living activities as well as he used to, so they help with cleaning and making sure he eats his meals while she is there. They are good at making adjustments to the schedule when he needs them to. That is most important at the moment.

We would like it if the same person came each time, long enough for me to feel that they are here long enough. We have been pretty aggravated with them, but we appreciate their help greatly.

We have had a couple of times where there has been a mix-up in times when the caregivers needed to show up. I think some of the problems were more with the management and not the caregivers. Most of the caregivers we have had have been very good at taking care of my loved ones. I don't have to worry as much about my loved ones being alone at night because of their caregiver.

When we started, the particular person who was doing our scheduling had an attitude. When my loved one had a fall we needed more hours and the scheduler would not answer so I called again and they said that they had not gotten to t it yet. Then I spoke with a much nicer person and they said they would help and that we would have someone quickly. There are many great people within the company, I have just had a few bad experiences. If our caregiver keeps working the way they are then the services will be getting much better. The other caregivers we have had have not been what we expected.
