Ms. McAlister is a caregiver with First Light Home Care in the Kansas City area. She cares for our 88-year-old father with dementia. She is very in tune with Dad's needs and approaches her care of him in a respectful and caring way. Her experience with dementia has allowed Dad to quickly trust her to be by his side to assist with all his needs. She keeps us informed of any concerns on a day-to-day basis. She is knowledgeable, professional and provides the soft touch that dementia requires. She is appreciated beyond words.

Hannah was terrific with my dad. She really got him to open up about all kinds of subjects and had him in a really great mood and kept him off the depressing side. She took great care of him and met all his needs with enthusiasm and kindness. I just cannot say enough good things about this young lady.

Provider Response

Thank you Tim! We are happy to hear that Hannah was a big help to your dad! If you need anything, else we are here for him, just let us know! 🙏

Michelle is amazing. She is working with my mother as a companion. I have to hand it to her, Michelle walked into a very tricky situation with my mom in that she is not the most pleasant to work with. Michelle, however, is the most kind and giving person. Michelle washed mom's hair and made her do her exercises; she handles mom with the utmost professionalism. I'm very grateful for this service, but moreso that they have someone like Michelle working for them. Very best, A

Provider Response

Thank you for the exceptional feedback on Michelle, and commenting on the great lengths she gone to, to make your mother feel loved.

We have a caregiver named Heather W. who comes on the weekend to provide respite care. She is VERY caring, gets right to work on chores, spends purposeful time with her client in conversation, playing chess with him per his request, taking him outside to walk in the park or neighborhood. We look forward to our weekly visits with Heather!!

Provider Response

Thank you for this awesome review, Kathy! We are so glad to hear that Heather has done such a wonderful job for you. Please let us know if we can do anything else - we are here for you!

FirstLight Home Care provided me with 3 caregivers of which this review is for one named Heather. Heather always comes a few minutes early on her two days she provides care for me. Other than being punctual, she is also very caring and asks how I’ve been when she comes for her shift. She also asks me if I have had any falls and I share with her if I have or not .She not only provides care for me but she cooks a meal for me in the evening and provides routine cleaning of my house. She is very responsive to my needs and it only takes her about a day to figure out what I’m needing at any given time.

Provider Response

Thank you, Ann! Thank you for commenting on how punctual and contentious your caregivers have been. We appreciate your wonderful review!

First light provides me with daily home health care and their employee Cheyenne is the best. She is always on time always cheerful and does what does needs to be done without directions. I have had several aides over the years and Cheyenne is definitely way up there on top. Way to go Cheyenne!

Provider Response

Thank you, Terry! What a great review! We are so happy that Cheyenne has had such a positive impact on your daily needs, and has done so with a smile :-) We appreciate the time you took to leave a review!

My sister Kathy and I would like to start out thanking Andrew who was great to work with pertaining to anything financial, Karen and Shelby were wonderful with the whole process of finding the perfect person to take care of our mother and we would also like to thank our mother's caregiver, Ruth. Our mother really enjoyed having Ruth who not only cared for her but she also sat and listened to her. We never worried about leaving her to run any errands. We feel very comfortable recommending FirstLight to anyone looking for a company to provide great home care for their loved one. We truly appreciate the great kindness and care they provided our mother.

Provider Response

Wow, thank you for the AMAZING review Debbie and Kathy! It warms our hearts to hear so many wonderful words about so many people on our team. We are honored that you would recommend us so highly, and are so happy we made such a positive impact. God Bless you your entire family.

Karla is a very reliable caregiver. She always shows up, which is very important since I can’t get my husband out of bed by myself. She helps out in numerous other ways with a good attitude. When my husband’s dementia is problematic, she is able to get his cooperation. She is also friendly and good company.

Provider Response

Thank you Audrey and thank you for the wonderful review of Karla and of our services!

I'm very satisfied with my service through first light. My caregiver, Brittany R does personal care, laundry, cleans, runs errands, gets groceries, helps take care of my pets, and helps me get things set up for the mext week, taking me to doctor appointments and ect. Without her I wouldn't be able to get the things done that I need done for everyday life. Due to me being disabled and in scooter. Thank you Brittany and first light so your services.

I am so thankful to everyone at FirstLight Home Care for the support and care that was given to my mother, Barbara, during her last few months of life. We were matched up with our amazing caregiver Cynthia. I do not have the words to express how wonderful Cynthia was with my mother. She was caring, professional and accommodating, making sure my mother was comfortable and well taken care of. It was a great relief for me to be able to go to work and not have to worry about my mother receiving great care while I was gone.

Provider Response

Thank you for your review, Joleena! We are pleased to hear that Cynthia was able to provide Barbara with the assistance she needed to remain at home, and give you the peace of mind that all her needs were being met. It was an honor to care for her to the very end. Thank you Joleena
