    We started working with Brightstar in Sept. of this year. My husband has PD and it was no longer safe to leave him when I needed to attend appts. It's been an overall positive experience; our caregiver (Isabel) has been fantastic. She's kind, helpful and unfailingly cheerful! I'd also like to give a shout out to Renee who has endured my numerous emails and phone calls with unlimited patience. Wishing all at Brightstar a very Happy New Year!

    Rachel at Brightstar is amazing! We are a large school district and are in need of coverage for our school nurses when they are out. She answers our calls and most of all returns our calls. The nursing staff that she has sent us are outstanding and super nice to our students as well as competent and skilled nurses. As head nurse of our school district I would highly recommend this agency. Definitely a 5 star status!!!! :)

    One caregiver showed up with devil ears on her car. Some of the caregivers are not willing to do things that they are supposed to do, or what they are supposed to do is not clear to them. One of the biggest things is that they do not know how to do simple things like fold clothes. There have been times when we have not had coverage or a caregiver that is a good match.

    I think the IV helps but not as long as it used to. It improves quite a bit. This is my second get around with quest labs. Twice now I get a call from my doctor saying I had to go to the hospital right away, but it was a falsely elevated lab. They are off with their values. I think I get good quality care and my nurse just tries her best to fit my schedule.

    I was the caregiver for my husband John. I hired BrightStar Bedford for help showering him, exercising his brain and walking with him and finally getting him into bed. The staff was wonderful. Delphina was great with John. He sometimes gave her a hard time, but she persevered. When ever I had a question and called the office, the response was immediate. Unfortunately, I had to put John into a memory care facility this month and he is doing well there. After John had been there for a week or so, Delphine called me to see how he was doing. I'm pretty sure, this was above and beyond her scope of employment! Thank you Delphine and the entire BrightStar staff. Please feel comfortable using this service for your loved one at any time. My only complaint, is that a 4 hour block is required and although the aids are approved to do light household chores, I have always felt I wanted to do these my self. So 4 hours was a little too long for me, but if you enbrace additional help 4 hours would be great.

    Thank you to all the compassionate and caring people at BrightStar Care. My family will be forever grateful for the top-notch care you provided our father and for the efforts they put forth to make sure we were comfortable and informed every step of the way. Each person we worked with was knowledgeable and willing to spend the time necessary to ensure the whole family understood the process, challenges and goals. The lovely ladies that came into our home to care for my father were all competent, professional and helpful in not only caring for my Dad, but also in showing the rest of us how to approach his care when they were not here. I know I can speak for my father in saying he was exceedingly happy with all of his caregivers and that his final months and weeks were made much more pleasant because he felt safe and loved. Thank you, BrightStar!!! We are eternally grateful for you all and happy that we chose to bring you into our lives!

    I relied on BrightStar to take care of my Mom after she was discharged from the hospital. It was a difficult time as I live in another country and we do not have family in NH. They were patient, understanding, and thoughtful through the entire ordeal. I cannot recommend them enough. I always felt assured that Mom was in her home and being well taken care of as their communication was great. Thanks to the team at BrightStar!

    BrightStar Care has been wonderful! They provide care for my husband who suffers from Parkinson's. The staff have been so patient and kind with us as they helped us navigate this process. They helped us understand and maximize his VA benefit and even provided guidance and tips on how to make our home safer for him. All of the girls in the office have been so helpful. My husband's caregiver is an absolute angel. She is kind, reliable, and eager to help. The director of nursing is extremely knowledgeable. I know my husband is in good hands with BrightStar. We are so grateful we found them!

    My mother has been cared for by BrightStar, intermittently, for about a year. Recently she had been admitted to the hospital and then rehab. BrightStar called me a couple of times during her rehabs day to check on her well-being. Approximately one month before Mom was discharged I questioned BrightStar about their ability to provide 24/7 care for Mom once she was discharged. They assured me that even with the covid-19 virus that they would be able to provide the necessary care. I emphasized that they needed to have support staff available if an emergency arose with mom's caregivers. Again, two weeks before mom's discharge I called to confirm that they could provide the necessary care. Again they reassured me that they had the necessary staff to care for my mother. One week prior to Mom's discharge I again called to reassure that Mom would have 24/7 care when she arrived home. This time they stated, " We working on it." Less than 48 hours before mom's return to her home, BrightStar called and shared that they had arranged for 16 hours of care for the entire week. What happened to the 24/7 care that they reassured me would be available for my mother? I asked if an employee that had worked for them previously could be released from her " no compete contract" in order to provide some private care to make up BrightStars inability to assist my mother. In true form, they emphatically stated,, "No". My question... Does BrightStar truly care for their clients if they betray the client's and family's trust? I do understand that covid is interfering with all of our lives but I can't tolerate the deceit that BrightStar portrayed to my mother and our family. My mother's wish has always been to spend her final days in her home. Thanks to BrightStar this final wish will not be granted.

    They were only able to provide support with personal hygiene. It made a difference and helped a lot. Tammy, my initial contact was 100% helpful to me. She initiated a lot of help for me.

    They 100% worked with me. They gave me confidence. The therapist is excellent, and I wasn't easy to work with. I was in a lot of pain and they helped me a lot.

    I don't have someone coming in daily. They come in and show me how to do an IV for my loved one. There are a lot of gaps in the organization. The caregivers work really well with me.

    They were just giving me an IV. The nurse that they sent me was possibly new. They could be more organized and know what they are doing.

    I was going to my dad's place every single day and it has enabled the family to get relief. They bend over backwards to help people. My dad was in a car accident and I was on my way to work to my new job so I called the office to ask if a caregiver could go in and they were amazing. They are flexible and are more than willing to help.

    It has made a big difference. For me personally, I was here a lot for my mom when she lived with my brother, and there are certain things she would never allow my brother to do for her. I don't know what we would have done without those nurses. They have been God sent to our family. They always seem to find people that fit my mother's personality.

    It makes me very cheerful and I appreciate what she is doing. She will take me out in my wheelchair in the good weather. She does laundry, grocery shopping, and anything I ask her to do. My caregiver is always in a good mood and willing to do what has to be done. I have never had a problem.

    The service that most helps me is the specific medical care they give me. BrightStar has been very competent.

    They work with whatever services that I need and around any schedule. The services give me a break for a three hour period. I'm disabled myself, so it's difficult for me to take my loved one places.

    There are a host of things. The first caregiver came out made some mistakes and wasn't happy when I asked them to fix those things. They complained when I asked them to do things. They made some statements that weren't accurate. They never stopped and asked questions. I had a bad fall, and I dropped some things. What I dropped got mixed in with my laundry, and they were mean about cleaning it up.

    BrightStar Care calls me back when I call them and they are easy to get in contact with. The caregivers make sure my loved one eats and make him meals. They also bathe my loved one.

    I haven't had any problems with BrightStar Care. They return phone calls when I call them. BrightStar Care helps me by inserting a needle into a port because I do infusion.
