Gentle Hands provided 12-hour (9pm-9am) home health aides for my sister. The service aides are unparalleled in their timely arrival, trustworthiness, care, efficiency, kindness, and positivity. Moreover, they have genuine authenticity as human beings and---a welcome sense of humor.

My family is eternally grateful for Ms. Ruthlynn our Aunt's aide. Since day we knew she was the perfect person to assist our 87 year old aunt who had just lost her husband to Covid. Ruthlynn is compassionate, caring and kind. She cooks, cleans, shops does laundry takes her to doctors appointments and so much more. She works well independently with little or no direction. She knows and does what is required.. We are blessed to have her. Her presence and companionship gives us comfort. Ruthlynn is extraordinary and a credit to her profession!
Ms. Selden is relatively new to "the family." She has proven to be an asset as well. She brings comfort and joy to my Aunt and for that we thank her!
These two women are remarkable caregivers and are to be appaulded for all they do for the elderly especially during these trying times with Covid.
They are always on time for work and are never absent. The agency has addresses and been responsive when we have had concerns. As long as Gentle Hands Home Care continues to employ quality professionals like our caregivers Ruthlynn and Seldene, I will recommend them to all of our family and friends!

I contacted Gentle Hands as a recommendation from caring.com. Gentle Hands had good reviews but they were very unresponsive to me. Every time they said they would call me back I ended up calling them back. I finally scheduled and paid upfront for a nurse to perform an assessment for my Mother. They met with my sister and my Mom but according to my sister no assessment was performed. When I called they would tell me that they were trying to call me but I had no messages on my phone or phone numbers that they called. I spoke to an employee and said that before I write a survey I'd like to speak with a Manger. A Manager never called me back but the same person I spoke with the day before and again they said they were trying to call me. My Mom passed away before anyone ever called or sent an assessment.
Provider Response
Our apologies about your experience with our Company. You indicated the reasons for your dissatisfaction. However, our records show that calls were extended, in an effort to reach you, but all went unanswered. You eventually contacted us and requested a manager and in doing so you expressed that your mother had passed. We are deeply saddened by the loss of your mother. We pride ourselves on our reputation in extending the very best care and quality service to our clients therefore we are at your every disposal if there is anything we can assist you with in moving forward.

I needed a home care person to help with caregiving. Caring.com suggested several agencies, and I picked Gentle Hands, who provided an excellent person to help at home. The rate was reasonable. When I requested a change in schedule, GH was very accommodating. I recommend them.

My experience with Gentle Hands Home Care has been pretty good. I've only had one caregiver, and she's good. They provide companionship, and they help me with everything. The schedule is flexible, and they're the least expensive compared to other agencies.

We did hire Gentle Hands Home Care, and they provide live-in home care. We chose them because their price was right, and they had someone available. They do cooking, bathing, and helping my mother-in-law get dressed. The caregiver that we have is excellent. She is wonderful.

The physical therapist and the aid sent to me by Doreen J. of Gentle Hands Homecare Of New York are excellent.
I can't imagine a better physical therapist than Prya. In brief, she is superb,highly competent, and thorough. She shows me how to do the exercises with precision, and does not let me cheat.
Monika, the Home Aide, doesn't stop working. She even suggests possible chores for her to do. She is cheerful and pleasant to be with

Gentle Hands was very good. The two attendants I had were very caring and good.They were careful, helpful and have a very positive attitude.I had no problems with them at all. They were good with my mom and assisted her with activities of daily living.
Doreen could have a lot more of information printed when she came. I had interviewed other agencies and they all had printed materials where you can read what exactly what whey were gonna do and what's expected. It would be easy for me to go through after they leave. I still chose her then because of her personality. I felt confident with her. I think she could give more of a better presentation if she had more material. It would make her more professional that way.

My grandmother was sick and I wanted to have somebody to take care of her. Their care for her was really excellent. My grandmother was happy with them. She was well taken care of. If my grand-dad isn't doing well later on, I would use Gentle Hands again.

A friend recommended Gentle Hands Home Care. Their service is very good. The people are reliable and they take good care of my grandma. We've been working with them since September. They do the laundry and some light housework. I'm very happy with their service. Doreen is a good person. She's very nice.

A friend of mine told me about Gentle Hands Home Care. When I spoke with them, it was like I've known them for such a long time. They've handled everything in a professional manner, and they were able to answer the questions I asked about caring for my mother. The caregiver was good, patient, understanding and she tried to make my mother comfortable. She cared for her like she was a family member. It was such a hard working team. We worked for them for about a year. I've recommended them to my friends.
