I can rely on someone to help my father do what is needed. I like that they are easy to reach in a emergency they are responsive, they let me know if someone can't make it and most of the time find coverage.

They have made a great impact because they are always there to help. I would recommend them because they know what they are doing, have quality caregivers, are very dependable, and have never failed to get us someone, even if there is a last minute cancellation.

I need someone 3 nights a week so I can get some sleep and recharge. I get to sleep when she comes. If someone new comes it's hard for me to get sleep because I do not know if I can trust them or not yet. The caregiver keeps calling out and has left in the middle of the shift. We need more reliable caregivers. We like her but she needs to be more reliable.

They come to take her out shopping. They do what they can and what she wants to do. It is settled down now, but in the beginning, there was a lot of turnover. One week we would have somebody and then the next person would be different, so it was a little hectic.

They need to spend some more time training their caregivers. The company needs to do a better job at screening their caregivers. The first caregiver I had didn't have much initiative and wouldn't do anything that I asked them to do. It took time, but we finally got a caregiver who was excellent.

Someone is always there for her to prevent falls. They draw her bath when needed. They sent a nurse to evaluate the situation. They were in contact with my mother's physician. They are quick to change caregivers to meet the needs of my mother. They are very good that way.

If the caregiver is going to cancel or needs a day off, we need to have more advanced notice. The office people are very helpful after going through several caregivers that didn't work out well. My loved one is very private. They found a caregiver that my loved one enjoys having. But, BrightStar could improve. The RN that does the evaluations is supposed to do that every month and they stretch it to do it longer than every month.

I think they could motivate their clients more, I would like them to be more proactive. They could try to expedite their hiring process, it seems they don't have access to a qualified hiring pool. It seems like it takes a period of time to replace a caregiver.

We had an incidence in the beginning where the caregivers did not have a car, but the problem has been fixed. One of the caregivers is very good about driving my mom to the dentist or to get her hair done. They help her with meals and provide her with a companion. They help her get to where she needs to go.

The hospital didn't have anybody, so they recommended Brightstar as an alternative. All my sister needed was companionship and people who take her out. She just goes out the door, she goes grocery shopping, and we're hoping she goes to museums. It's just basically to reduce the tension within the home. There was just too much tension going on because she had a brain surgery a year ago. Since the brain surgery, she has developed cognitive and behavioral issues, and she did not want to go into a nursing home. Originally, we had somebody coming five days a week, but now we have somebody coming in three days a week. So it's not perfect, but at least it's livable. She's fine with taking care of herself. What she needs is companionship because otherwise once she's here with us and just sits with us all day long, she starts getting argumentative and fights back. Basically it's just to get her to go out of the house. The caregiver gets along really well with my sister. She's like a security blanket. She does not do any medical stuff. She's very happy with her. The person from Brightcare is helpful because she considers the person from Brightstar a friend, while she's suspicious of her family.
