Beverly Starr 2021-12-10 Brandon comes in 3 times a week to help with my disabled husband. He cleans him, then puts him in his medical wraps. He gives me a hand with taking out trash and vacuuming, and other tasks if I ask him. He's really kind and helpful! I am a current client of this provider

Ree Mc. 2021-12-08 My experiences with care givers of Bright Star of Lane County have been mostly positive. One of the best care givers that I’ve seen at work is Telessa. She is a conscientious and attentive care giver who focuses on the job at hand, while conveying compassion for the client. Telessa also has pleasant demeanor, is dependable and treats her clients with dignity and respect while expertly caring for them. It is caregivers like Telessa who make BrightStar of Lane County one of the best caregiver providers in the area. I am a current client of this provider

Julie and Steve 2021-10-28 BrightStar has been providing excellent care for my husband who has M.S. and is confined to a wheelchair. Our caregivers: Brandon, Steve and Keliko are like members of our family. My husband requires detailed assistance and uses an overhead lift system. All three gentlemen are professional and very attentive to him. Expert caregiving skills are required in this patient/client relationship and our caregivers have certainly exceeded all requirements. Thank you, Julie and Steve Other

dianepippin 2021-05-19 Brandon, our caregiver from BrightStar Care of Lane County, is an exceptional person. Brandon is an experienced, dedicated and compassionate caregiver. I can leave my home worry free knowing while I am away my husband is in very capable hands. Brandon is also a great help to me with housekeeping going above and beyond. He has been such a help to us during a difficult time. He is very attentive to my husband’s needs. It is a pleasure to have Brandon in our home. Thank you BrightStar and Brandon!

Cher. 2021-03-19 We are working with BrightStar Care Lane County for my mother's in-home care. The agency is good. We tried to match someone with her, and it took a third person to come to be a good match. Actually, the second one who came would have worked fine, as she was very capable, but she was just a little too quiet. (My mom has some cognitive issues, so she needs someone who is going to talk to her and be really outgoing.) The woman who we have now, Caitlyn, works really well because she's that kind of person. (There is nothing wrong with the last one who came, she just did not match with what we needed for my mom.) Caitlyn is outgoing, capable, a go-getter, and she always takes care of things that need to be done. We are happy with her, so far. One of the reasons we chose her, too, was because her hours work well with the hours we wanted. We wanted a person who was also consistent with my mom and she's that. We got a companion care service for my mom, which means they don't do bathing or anything like that, but my mother is still capable of doing that. The caregiver just cleans, and since my mom has a cat she also takes care of it. She helps with the laundry and cooks for her. She does a little bit of everything except taking care of medical stuff and bathing. I am a current client of this provider

Diane Pippin 2020-12-23 Bright Star’s business card, “A Higher Standard” rings true. My husband and I have found their standards high, their staffing proficient, and their help and support to us unmeasurable. Their Office Manager, Keelie is a very caring, compassionate person. She responds very quickly with answers to our questions. She goes the extra mile to help us. She is just a very nice person! I am a current client of this provider

Anonymous_4300 2020-12-17 I think that the person providing care is doing well with my aunt and they are more cautious when working with all the precautions of working in the time of COVID-19. I don't know, maybe with any agency it would be nice to have a meeting with whoever they decide that provides care to see how well it will be to receive services. I am a current client of this provider

Beverly M_3 2020-11-24 I have found one person and she is consistent now and she knows what I like and does what needs to be done and make sure that she does what she is suppose to. I would recommend them because I have had really good luck with caregivers that have done exactly what I wanted to except one but the rest were amazing. I am a current client of this provider

Anonymous_4249 2020-11-09 I was in physical therapy and they did my laundry for me. There could be more training on the employees. When they come in they should do their hand washing to get to caring for me. I am a past client of this provider

Deena _1 2020-10-22 The most helpful part of the care is just having somebody there and having them to help. I remember asking for certain help and it just never happened. I am a past client of this provider

Susan B_33 2020-10-08 The quality of the people they send us are great. We live in a rural area and are closest to Cottage Grove. Then we don't have to pay mileage. It is difficult to find someone in our area. We would have to pay mileage from Eugene. They require the workers and clients to have their temperatures to be taken daily. I am a current client of this provider

Kathy B_21 2020-09-15 It has been a huge deal but I still have to deal with things after they are not around. They have been extremely accommodating. They stay in touch and are very helpful. They are obviously in this to help people. I am a current client of this provider

Joan Wade S 2020-08-13 My husband has one caregiver and I have a different one. She is very good at knowing what I need. She anticipates in advance what I need and has a lot of knowledge about me. Their people are always well-trained and very good at what they do, even the substitutes. I am a current client of this provider

David C_33 2020-04-13 I needed confidence in the caregivers from a distance and I felt comfortable that my mother was being taken care of. They have a sense of professionalism that didn't exist in other agencies I contacted. I am a current client of this provider

5 5 1

Talia S_1 2020-04-13 I have six kids at home so it's a little hard to have another individual in the house ushering him through all of the chaos. I think it's personal anxiety of making sure the kids stay out of the way. They could also come up with more of a variety of activities to do with him. I like that every single staff member I've talked to has been overwhelmingly friendly and helpful. I am a current client of this provider

5 5 1

Roger _1 2020-04-08 I need wraps for lymph edema and they are taking care of it. They are so efficient. I am a current client of this provider

Stephanie _5 2020-03-06 They've been able to take care of her so that I can get stuff done. The services are great and helpful. I am a current client of this provider

5 5 1

Patricia P_15 2020-02-18 I did the care all by myself until BrightStar Care came because of the VA. My husband is capable of doing some things, and I take him to physical therapy twice a week, and I take him to a pool to exercise. The caregiver is willing to go and get in the water with me and keep an eye on him so he does not fall. They work with me until they get a person that fits into my environment and that is important for me. They do look for a better match for me if there is a bad match. I am a current client of this provider

5 5 1

Anonymous_3171 2020-01-13 When I get the help, it is very important. They have been very reliable. Even though I don't get care very frequently, they have been able to send somebody to help me when I need it. I am a current client of this provider

Anonymous_3009 2019-12-10 Everything was done on time, and having someone there with my loved one was important. I liked the care that my loved one got and the friendships my loved one had with the caregivers. I am a past client of this provider

kjhougardy 2019-08-30 My mother died last year and now my step dad is in assisted living in Eugene. One of the other residents there told him about Bright Star and he decided to get some assistance with settling him in to his new place, as I live in Seattle and am unable to just stop by and help him as needed. Stephanie was the one to come out and help him. She assessed the situation and took charge in a way that didn’t undermine my stepdad’s wishes. She treats him with respect and dignity and also is able to persuade him to do difficult things that he needs to do, and how to do it in a way that works. She also knows when not to pick a battle! Now Stephanie comes in on a regular basis to assist my step dad. We could contract with the assisted living facility to do these extra things (and it is a good place), but Stephanie gives him the detailed attention that makes his quality of life better in unmeasurable ways. She and my step dad have a great relationship. Meanwhile, I have peace of mind that my step dad is well cared for, which is so important with me being 275 miles away. Thank you to Bright Star and Stephanie for being there for my step dad. Stephanie is a gem! Other

Edith L 2019-08-16 They could have made my life easier by having more employees and accommodating us with what we needed. They could improve by listening and responding quicker. I should not have to call 7 times to get something fixed. I am a past client of this provider

Joe and Ann 2019-07-16 We're leaving this review to post how pleased we are with Stephanie. She is our back up caregiver and she always brings a big smile to our faces. She is very thorough and knowledgeable and helps us find additional care that we are seeking. Stephanie has a gentle and quiet demeanor; very kind and is so successful in getting my husband to participate in the word games. He's very hesitant to go for a walk or participate in the word games unless Stephanie is here. This is representative of the great rapport that she has. I'm sure that she is a popular caregiver to be requested due to her gentle, caring and knowledgeable personality. I don't know what the company pays their caregivers, but I can say for certain that they earn every penny plus! I would hope that there are bonuses or perks for the caregivers that excel like Stephanie. I was told that the company tries to match their caregivers to their clients and I would say that they hit a home run here! I would recommend the company. My only concern would be that if the caregivers are not compensated enough, the really good ones might leave ... and we would be so sad if that happened. My husband normally does not like strangers in the home but both Angie and Stephanie have done an excellent job in making him so comfortable that they are like members of the family. I am a current client of this provider

Jerry _1 2019-07-10 She really likes the caregiver that comes out here. She really enjoys her company. They have been good. They are on top of things. The caregiver is really nice. I am a current client of this provider

Michael D_7 2019-07-10 They went above and beyond. They did more than what I asked while doing what I did ask. Stephanie was rad. It was excellent. We didn't have any problems at all. I dealt with two representatives. Not only were they professional, but they felt like family. I have PTSD, and I don't like people, so that was important. I am a past client of this provider

5 5 1

David O_8 2019-07-10 They were a lot of help, but having a caregiver would have had a greater impact on my daily life. They did a good job of taking care of me. I am a past client of this provider

Ehrman G 2019-06-26 He is a good impact on both his and my life. I have to have him. They have an awful turnover of caregivers. They need more consistency with caregivers. I am a current client of this provider

Donald P_1 2019-06-26 They take good care of me when they are here, if they are here long enough. I like my caregiver. Her and my mind get together a lot. One morning, she was making jello and I hoped she made the lime, and she did. I like her work. I am a current client of this provider

5 5 1

Annie Z_1 2019-06-19 They have super inconsistent caregivers. Some are great, some are not. I would like them to improve the billing, it is horrible. They cannot provided balances, and they send weekly invoices, which do not show what has already been paid and what is still pending. I am a current client of this provider

chuckclk 2019-05-27 I am the husband of the client. I am almost always present when the care giver is here. Agency has been good at making sure the hours are covered. Brightstar is our current provider and has been our service agency or about one year. The staff they send have been very competent. Staff is very polite and accommodating. They are adaptable to whatever changes in coverage I nee. Caregiver Takes Nancy shopping. Puts out pills for the month. Cleans the house, floor, bathroom, etc. Helps keep Nancy focused and is emotionally very supportive. She always arrives on time and sometimes stays a few minutes late to finish up a task. She is very friendly. Knowledgeable. Easy to work with and quite open to do whatever she is asked The office has been very good at making sure the hours are covered. They are always polite and show concern over Nancy's welfare. I am a current client of this provider

Pat R 2019-05-25 There is an excellent screening process. Every caregiver that has been to our home is kind and knowledgeable. Our regular caregiver, Emily, is always attentive to my mother's needs without hovering or barking orders. I would give one more star to this company if they had a 24-hour on call system. If something comes up in the morning before the office opens, they don't get the message until they get in. I am a current client of this provider

Daniel P_1 2019-05-13 An individual like me, I get 7 days a week 3 hours a day. Sometimes they stay a little bit longer and work with me to pay my bills. BrightStar has always worked with me.

Becky R 2018-11-19 When they first started, I said I would like for her to vacuum, dust, mop, wipe the bathroom down, and put dishes in the dishwasher, and she is not doing much of anything now. My dad has long-term care insurance and we have been working to get that going, but I would be calling this company and they would say they were sending a fax to the agency, and I would ask the agency to call me back when they got it, but they never called me back. They finally called and said I need to start paying on this. We have been communicating it repeatedly that they needed to take care of this. I am a current client of this provider

Kim E_1 2018-09-19 They've added more stress to my life because I have caregivers that don't show up for my shifts and they don't call me so I'm left high and dry. That's happened several times this week, even. They could improve their communication. They could let me know what's going on with the caregivers. I am a current client of this provider

Mary M 2018-04-06 Their caregivers are very kind and reliable. That's an important thing. It alleviates the worry about the care that my mom is getting because they will alert me of any concerns. Mostly they provide such a sense of comfort and companionship to my mom. I am a current client of this provider

Paul A 2018-03-26 Everything's been going fairly smooth. The caregiver is doing a really good job. She's been doing good work. We went through a couple companies that didn't work out and we ended on this decision. He's bonded with the caregiver really well. They just basically take care of his everyday needs. She takes over and does everything I used to do. I am a current client of this provider

Margaret S_3 2018-03-16 My caregiver is very attentive. She watches and listens and she did that with my husband as well. Her attention is all about her client and I think that is so cool.

Pam J 2017-12-06 BrightStar Care needs to communicate with me more about scheduling and people not showing up for their shifts and things like that.

Brandon comes in 3 times a week to help with my disabled husband. He cleans him, then puts him in his medical wraps. He gives me a hand with taking out trash and vacuuming, and other tasks if I ask him. He's really kind and helpful!

My experiences with care givers of Bright Star of Lane County have been mostly positive. One of the best care givers that I’ve seen at work is Telessa. She is a conscientious and attentive care giver who focuses on the job at hand, while conveying compassion for the client. Telessa also has pleasant demeanor, is dependable and treats her clients with dignity and respect while expertly caring for them. It is caregivers like Telessa who make BrightStar of Lane County one of the best caregiver providers in the area.

BrightStar has been providing excellent care for my husband who has M.S. and is confined to a wheelchair. Our caregivers: Brandon, Steve and Keliko are like members of our family. My husband requires detailed assistance and uses an overhead lift system. All three gentlemen are professional and very attentive to him. Expert caregiving skills are required in this patient/client relationship and our caregivers have certainly exceeded all requirements. Thank you, Julie and Steve

Brandon, our caregiver from BrightStar Care of Lane County, is an exceptional person. Brandon is an experienced, dedicated and compassionate caregiver. I can leave my home worry free knowing while I am away my husband is in very capable hands. Brandon is also a great help to me with housekeeping going above and beyond. He has been such a help to us during a difficult time. He is very attentive to my husband’s needs. It is a pleasure to have Brandon in our home. Thank you BrightStar and Brandon!

Provider Response

Thank you Diane for your kind words, we very much appreciate that you always take the time to recognize members of your care team. Brandon is a shining BrightStar, thank you for highlighting him.

We are working with BrightStar Care Lane County for my mother's in-home care. The agency is good. We tried to match someone with her, and it took a third person to come to be a good match. Actually, the second one who came would have worked fine, as she was very capable, but she was just a little too quiet. (My mom has some cognitive issues, so she needs someone who is going to talk to her and be really outgoing.) The woman who we have now, Caitlyn, works really well because she's that kind of person. (There is nothing wrong with the last one who came, she just did not match with what we needed for my mom.) Caitlyn is outgoing, capable, a go-getter, and she always takes care of things that need to be done. We are happy with her, so far. One of the reasons we chose her, too, was because her hours work well with the hours we wanted. We wanted a person who was also consistent with my mom and she's that. We got a companion care service for my mom, which means they don't do bathing or anything like that, but my mother is still capable of doing that. The caregiver just cleans, and since my mom has a cat she also takes care of it. She helps with the laundry and cooks for her. She does a little bit of everything except taking care of medical stuff and bathing.

Bright Star’s business card, “A Higher Standard” rings true. My husband and I have found their standards high, their staffing proficient, and their help and support to us unmeasurable. Their Office Manager, Keelie is a very caring, compassionate person. She responds very quickly with answers to our questions. She goes the extra mile to help us. She is just a very nice person!

I think that the person providing care is doing well with my aunt and they are more cautious when working with all the precautions of working in the time of COVID-19. I don't know, maybe with any agency it would be nice to have a meeting with whoever they decide that provides care to see how well it will be to receive services.

The quality of the people they send us are great. We live in a rural area and are closest to Cottage Grove. Then we don't have to pay mileage. It is difficult to find someone in our area. We would have to pay mileage from Eugene. They require the workers and clients to have their temperatures to be taken daily.

I have six kids at home so it's a little hard to have another individual in the house ushering him through all of the chaos. I think it's personal anxiety of making sure the kids stay out of the way. They could also come up with more of a variety of activities to do with him. I like that every single staff member I've talked to has been overwhelmingly friendly and helpful.

I did the care all by myself until BrightStar Care came because of the VA. My husband is capable of doing some things, and I take him to physical therapy twice a week, and I take him to a pool to exercise. The caregiver is willing to go and get in the water with me and keep an eye on him so he does not fall. They work with me until they get a person that fits into my environment and that is important for me. They do look for a better match for me if there is a bad match.

My mother died last year and now my step dad is in assisted living in Eugene. One of the other residents there told him about Bright Star and he decided to get some assistance with settling him in to his new place, as I live in Seattle and am unable to just stop by and help him as needed. Stephanie was the one to come out and help him. She assessed the situation and took charge in a way that didn’t undermine my stepdad’s wishes. She treats him with respect and dignity and also is able to persuade him to do difficult things that he needs to do, and how to do it in a way that works. She also knows when not to pick a battle! Now Stephanie comes in on a regular basis to assist my step dad. We could contract with the assisted living facility to do these extra things (and it is a good place), but Stephanie gives him the detailed attention that makes his quality of life better in unmeasurable ways. She and my step dad have a great relationship. Meanwhile, I have peace of mind that my step dad is well cared for, which is so important with me being 275 miles away. Thank you to Bright Star and Stephanie for being there for my step dad. Stephanie is a gem!

We're leaving this review to post how pleased we are with Stephanie. She is our back up caregiver and she always brings a big smile to our faces. She is very thorough and knowledgeable and helps us find additional care that we are seeking. Stephanie has a gentle and quiet demeanor; very kind and is so successful in getting my husband to participate in the word games. He's very hesitant to go for a walk or participate in the word games unless Stephanie is here. This is representative of the great rapport that she has. I'm sure that she is a popular caregiver to be requested due to her gentle, caring and knowledgeable personality. I don't know what the company pays their caregivers, but I can say for certain that they earn every penny plus! I would hope that there are bonuses or perks for the caregivers that excel like Stephanie. I was told that the company tries to match their caregivers to their clients and I would say that they hit a home run here! I would recommend the company. My only concern would be that if the caregivers are not compensated enough, the really good ones might leave ... and we would be so sad if that happened. My husband normally does not like strangers in the home but both Angie and Stephanie have done an excellent job in making him so comfortable that they are like members of the family.

They went above and beyond. They did more than what I asked while doing what I did ask. Stephanie was rad. It was excellent. We didn't have any problems at all. I dealt with two representatives.

I am the husband of the client. I am almost always present when the care giver is here. Agency has been good at making sure the hours are covered. Brightstar is our current provider and has been our service agency or about one year. The staff they send have been very competent. Staff is very polite and accommodating. They are adaptable to whatever changes in coverage I nee. Caregiver Takes Nancy shopping. Puts out pills for the month. Cleans the house, floor, bathroom, etc. Helps keep Nancy focused and is emotionally very supportive. She always arrives on time and sometimes stays a few minutes late to finish up a task. She is very friendly. Knowledgeable. Easy to work with and quite open to do whatever she is asked The office has been very good at making sure the hours are covered.

There is an excellent screening process. Every caregiver that has been to our home is kind and knowledgeable. Our regular caregiver, Emily, is always attentive to my mother's needs without hovering or barking orders. I would give one more star to this company if they had a 24-hour on call system. If something comes up in the morning before the office opens, they don't get the message until they get in.

When they first started, I said I would like for her to vacuum, dust, mop, wipe the bathroom down, and put dishes in the dishwasher, and she is not doing much of anything now. My dad has long-term care insurance and we have been working to get that going, but I would be calling this company and they would say they were sending a fax to the agency, and I would ask the agency to call me back when they got it, but they never called me back. They finally called and said I need to start paying on this. We have been communicating it repeatedly that they needed to take care of this.
