Im using Right at Home Eastern Queens. I get the help needed inside the house, but I need the aide to drive my parents to some of the doctors' appointments. However, none of the aides can even do that, and they cant even roll her up and down the ramp. They oversold their capabilities in that respect. The cost is comparable with the other providers. They do light cleaning, help with bathing, walk them around, organize cabinets, and do personal grooming, which is the most important thing. Theyre very good aides. One of the positive things they do is provide services to on a discount for going back and forth to the hospital and the doctor. They also have a good RN case supervisor.

In her case, I don't think it made much of a difference. There was nothing they could have done.
I like the fact that they had the Family Room where you could go online and see in real time who was coming that day. I liked that you could schedule tasks if you wanted to.

They could be more helpful with the housework and making her lunch.
Some of the girls are not too willing to stay in the room to do the therapy. When they are done, they are asleep.

They do everything I need when they come. They help with cleaning, particularly with cleaning the floor.
I've recommended them already. I've never had any problems with the company or their services. Everything with their services has gone smoothly.

The beginning was rough with them constantly calling us. They could not handle the dementia, but then they got some aides that could handle her.
I had some really bad aides at the beginning, but then we got some good ones that were great. It is hard in the whole industry, to keep good aides, as well.

It was no break for me like it was supposed to be. It was not helpful for me when I had to redo everything.
There was always something I needed to fix after they left.

It helps me because one of my problems was being able to go to church on Sundays, and the person that comes on Sunday always comes on time and it allows me to go to church.
I would tell they are responsible, and if they have problems coming they have a good back.

It saved me. I am not able to be here, and they were here.
They were dependable.

They help me take care of myself. They don't get in my way.
When I need somebody, they look into the people that I want and match that. They wouldn't just send anybody. If I don't like somebody, they will change the person. I have to relate to somebody that takes care of me.

They were very helpful for me.
The coordination of the aides had some miscommunication.

They should have provided better aides. They need to be more qualified and more experienced.
They should really interview the aides better.

The care that they provide makes it easier for me so I don't have to be there every day or every other day. I only have to go there once a week.
They have caring people working for them that are well suited for the job they're undertaking with my loved one. They're kind, compassionate, and the office is always in contact with me. The nurse comes regularly to see if there are changes and the office staff is very friendly.

It has enabled me to keep my dad at home. Without their care, I wouldn't be able to do that.
They are very efficient, and they are accessible. If there's a schedule change, they let me know, and I can access the schedule online.

The person who does the scheduling really tries to accommodate my loved one's needs as far as placing aides. It depends on the aide. There could be one aide who's awful and needs to be replaced, most of them are good.
They have helped by being good company for my loved one.

I'd tell a friend that Right at Home caregivers come promptly and know what to supposed to do. It's an advantage having Right at Home. The caregivers fold clothes, wash the dishes, and keep the sink clean.
December 02, 2017
I am a past client of this provider
I would recommend Right at Home more towards the end of the care than at the beginning because the first few caregivers sat around a lot and did not work. The later caregivers were much better. Right at Home made my life easier because the caregivers were able to provide quality services that my loved one needed done.

Right at Home has very friendly people, and they are quick to call me back. They have good caregivers working for them. I appreciate the fact that because of Right at Home, I have some sort of break from taking care of my mom.

Right at Home has high quality caregivers. Right at Home's services have made it so that I can carry on with my life and not worry about my mother.

The past two days I needed someone they didn't come, but overall the caregivers are always on time. The services give me the opportunity to rest, and go and do activities, and I know my loved one is being cared for.

I was very disappointed by the way Right at Home covered my loved one. There was an aide that came in 5 days a week. They couldn't come on the weekends, so we needed someone to come on the weekends. We could never get continuity with the caregivers on the weekend. It is very unsatisfactory for someone who is ill, to deal with new people everyday. Right at Home looked after my husband. The aide took him to dialysis and drove him back. She assisted him in dressing because he had shingles.
Provider Response
I am very sorry you had less than an excellent experience with Right at Home. We listen closely to the feedback from our clients so we can make corrections when needed. In light of your experience, we have targeted our recruiting efforts toward hiring additional certified home health aides who drive and whose availability allows us to better accommodate weekend shifts. Thank you for your feedback. – Sandy Quartuccio, President

My recommendation depends on the caregivers Right at Home sends. One of the caregivers the agency sends I like, and she has higher qualifications. Right at Home's impact is fine on my life. The caregiver does things that I cannot do, like grocery shopping.

I would definitely recommend Right at Home. I am very pleased with them. The caregiver for my loved one does everything for them. The care from Right at Home has really eased my mind. It has taken a burden off of me because I do not worry about my loved one being alone.

Right at Home does good follow-up with the care they provide. They send people out to check, and make sure that everything is going well. It is nice knowing that someone is with Frieda, and that they will help her with cooking and other tasks she might need help with. It is comforting knowing that someone is making sure she is safe.

Right at Home is expensive and I wish people would call me from the office to see how things are going. Right at Home sends a nice caregiver and they are pleasant and reliable.

I would tell my friends that Right at Home has had some issues with matching the client with caregivers. Right at Home could have more interaction with the clients.

Right at Home tries to match up the caregiver to the needs or requests of the client. Right at Home has made life easier by allowing me to get out of the house, and the caregiver is very kind, caring, and patient with my husband.

Right at Home is very caring, and they do a great job. Right at Home takes care of my husband very well. Most of the care that Right at Home provides I can't do, so they help out a lot.

Right at Home is attentive. The communication is there as well even though some of it is lacking on my part. Since the staff has changed, I don't feel their communication is as good as it used to be. Right at Home alleviates the stress and the anxiety, knowing that my mother is cared for. My mother's companion is wonderful and has a good handle on how to deal with her.

Right at Home has given me caregivers that work well. The caregiver that comes to my house completes a lot of the activities that I want done without me having to constantly repeat it.

I’ve tried Right at Home for my father and was not really happy about it. The nurse came in and evaluated my dad. We were happy with that, but when we asked if there was a charge, he said there was no charge. However, then we got a bill for $125. We only used Right at Home for one day because we were not happy with the person that they sent. It wasn’t a good match, so we don’t want to use that company anymore. They also made you pay upfront, and we weren’t happy with that. They said you can cancel anytime, but they didn’t say that if you cancel within 24 hours, you have to pay for the nurse's visit.
Provider Response
Right at Home Eastern Queens takes pride in the quality and competence of our caregivers and on the impeccable service we strive to provide each valued client in the Eastern Queens vicinity. We are sorry that you did not feel we explained our policy towards the RN assessment fee clearly to you. It is our policy to wave the initial RN assessment fee, provided the client continues services for a minimum of two weeks. This policy was reviewed with you by the nurse when the assessment was scheduled, prior to starting care. Services were canceled after one day because, as you stated, you were confident the family would be capable of providing care for your father. With the cancellation of services, the fee was not waived, as explained in the assessment scheduling conversation. Again, we are sorry that you did not have an excellent experience with us. Our goal is to improve the quality of life for those we serve every day. Right at Home is Eastern Queens’ trusted in-home care partner.
