The impact is in many ways, while the care has been good, it has provided me with the opportunity to do the things I need to do.

We have been using Touching Heart for over six months now. Basically, they do light cleaning, companion service, and they feed my mom and they fix her meals. There's more than one caregiver, and so far, it's been good. They're attentive. Their scheduling is based on what we pretty much need and can afford at the same time. I contacted a couple of in-home care agencies, and Touching Heart was the one who actually got back to me and came to the house and talked.

She would disinfect things like the phone and the counter tops. I like the person that came. She had a violin and played it for him. We had a really bad snow storm and I thought the woman wouldn't be coming because of it. She came with a shovel and shoveled our walk to get into the house. it was unbelievable that she came.

Ronni B

They did not need a medical team, they needed the cooking and assistance. My mother has dementia. My mother will not let them come in more often than what they do. There is a couple of things. They do not want you to contact the caretaker directly. I can do so now but I feel like there should be some autonomy in me being able to contact the caretaker. When it comes to schedule changing it would be nice to have that option.
