The best part of the services is knowing that someone is showing up. The agency is careful with making sure that they supply a person to take care of my daily needs.

I was considering asking the provider to provide me with a caregiver for an extra day. The provider checks on clients and ensures that the communication is good.

She has to be transferred with a Hoyer lift, and she is completely dependent on their care. Personal hygiene is the most impactful thing they do. I would recommend them because we have been with them since 2015, and they have been able to provide good caregivers for her all that time.

Everything was pretty good, but sometimes they'd call out. Then we'd have to scramble to find someone to help us if we had to go somewhere. They had a shortage of help at times, so we couldn't get the same person a lot of the times.

The availability, flexibility, and that the caregiver from BrightStar was willing to work with us in terms of the change in needs were so helpful to us. I like the amount of one on one interaction we had with BrightStar Care and they were able to find a suitable caregiver as needed and were very flexible.

Anonymous_5630

There's too many things, they keep her from falls, keep her company, and others. Over the years, they have been extremely kind, generous and thoughtful of the client's care.

Once the caregivers are actually here they are helpful and they do their job well. The company is competent, but sometimes the caregivers don't show up.

Linda _6

She helps me do things that I need to have done. She cleans and gives me my medication. I like that my daughter works for them.

Julie G_3

We have difficulty filling up hours to help out George. That would help me out more. They need to more availability for the caregivers.

John H_45

Maybe they could just send better aides for me to make things better. They could also be a little more holy. They aren't always on time and the aides could be a little better if they were a little older.

Lorraine H_2

They do anything that you ask them to do. They are young and are accommodating.

They spent the night with my mom when we couldn't be there. The people that came to be with my mom were wonderful.

Anonymous_4023

They don't have enough caregivers to cover my hours. It's hard to get a caregiver.

Linda B_20

I need a steady caregiver. I don't want a different person every day. They don't seem to have enough caregivers. I'm going two weeks now without a caregiver.

Carolann G

Some of the workers are able to take him outside and that helps him. I would like them to always send the same person every week. It's hard on my dad with dementia when they change it up on him.

Linda D

They help the most with everyday living. They are very supportive and do their job. They make me laugh when I am stuck indoors due to COVID. They keep me upbeat and positive. The owner needs to improve his ability to talk to the patients. He is kind of rude and not very nice. He is only nice when he first tries to get you. The patient is not important. I left a message many weeks ago and he has not responded.

Cynthia _4

They helped him out with bathing and getting dressed. I liked them because of the caregiver.

Theresa D_4

It helps period to have someone there with her for the full day since she can't see and has bad hearing. It helps keep her safe. They are always on time, never late, and do a great job.

Maureen F_2

It is stressful for me because I can't relax for those 3 hours. I address concerns with the caregivers about what to do with her and they don't do it. They call off often and they leave early. It is not necessarily a function of BrightStar but of who they hire, the very first caregiver came once then called off then quit, and we are on our fourth caregiver and it has only been 2 months since we hired them.

Diana _1

She only has them come once a week so it's a little different. They need to improve their reliability.

Anonymous_3373

They take care of little things around the home for me. The ladies they send are all very nice and very helpful.

Margaret C_7

I just feel like they need more extensive training so they can do with the clients. They need to train their caregivers more. Some of them do not know what they are doing.

Anonymous

She is wonderful about helping me get to my doctor appointments. I have the worker that I really like. She is always on time.

Joshua M_1

They do a fantastic job. They are understaffed, and there are times where they say that they can't cover a shift, or if they do, it is with someone different. I appreciate that they try their best to send the same person every time. She likes being able to go grocery shopping on the day she wants to go. She appreciates the companionship.

Carole K_2

They help with laundry, daily cleaning, shopping, and meals. I have an excellent caregiver now.

Steve M

They get me where I need to go. They are reliable and on time.

It caused me a lot of stress because a lot of the employees were late. They should have trained their employees a little bit more.

Virginia N_2

They are very caring people. They go out of their way to help me They always make an attempt to find someone to care for me if something happens. The people that are coming are wonderful.

Margaret B_8

The caregivers are excellent. They take me to the doctor's. They need to pay more for their staff.

Kevin G_2

I have to work, so the services help me out so my mom won't be alone. The caregiver I have now is good, but the beginning wasn't as good.

Anonymous_2375

It has helped me out as far as caring for my father goes. They are personable, good at communicating, and if someone isn't able to come to their shift, they get someone else to come.

She does all of the things I cannot do and does them well. I like my caregiver. She is excellent.

Eileen S_3

They have been sensitive to the care that Sister Eileen needs, and they have cooperative with providing people for her. They have been cooperative with the kind of care that I need.

They do shopping for me, clean my floors, and do my laundry. For a while, I didn't have good health, but now I do. The three women that come are very helpful, and I really like them.

Nancy E_3

They have given me the correct people, and they have matched me up with the correct caregivers and aides. The have the right mindset. They took a lot of care in the type of caregiver that they give me. They are helpful in trying to get care to me. The caregivers I have right now are very good.

Joann W

They have helped out the most by sending me the perfect person. I like that they care.

Mark H

They are there when I have to work. For the most part they are pretty good, but they have extreme trouble at filling extra time and good people.

Marie K_4

My husband is harder than most, and he does not cooperate with things they tell him to do. It's mainly on him and not them. My main problem is that I do not feel that I can get what I really want with in-home care. I wanted to have one consistent caregiver so my husband would get acquainted with that person and get to know them. We have had five different caregivers in a month and half. I feel they are trying hard, but we have not been able to reach that goal.

Anonymous_1696

I wish they could understand the things that I am going through. You need to have better qualified candidates so people actually do show up.

Rosimar H

They have given me the same person and it is really important to me. I like that they are reliable and that they accommodate to schedule changes.

D'Anthony C

They are there and able to take her places. It is too far away for me to see her and help. The rates are good, and the place had a minimum of 4 hours.

north hills client

Bright Star North Hills is one of the worst caregiving companies out there their employees are not trained their employees are constantly calling off leaving you running and scrambling to get Home to replace them,the employees Mostly sit on the couch and do nothing and are paid little wages as well if you are looking for a caregiver Company run away from this one as fast as you can!!!

Karen Z

They helped by finding the appropriate caregiver to help. It is a good match. My dad's case isn't a simple one yet they worked with us to make it work.

Cynthia K_1

It takes off the pressure of things that I can't do that I need help with. I have a good girl that comes in and helps me out. I appreciate what she does, she is such a kind and sweet person.

Anonymous

It depends on the staff that is working with me. They could have staff that would work better with me. They need to get better staff to work.

Helen P_4

I work full time, so it enables me to not lose time at work. Unlike other companies, they provide a caregiver that can fill in when a caregiver leaves.

Robert K_6

They come in and help me with a bath. They are honest.

Ursula S

I don't think it is BrightStar Care fault, but I haven't found a good caregiver yet, which is inconvenient. They listen to what I want and need. They try to meet those needs. They train their personnel and follow up.

Ken

I get to play golf on the one day they come here. Outside of the first three times, it has been excellent so far.

Ralph J

They made things easier by giving me time to get away or go to the store because his care was full time. BrightStar Care was pretty knowledgeable about things and the caregivers knew as much as the nurses that came to see my dad.

Stephanie

They were flexible and everyone they sent me was good. They would call anytime a new aide came and then they would call to see how the aide did and I had the chance to give immediate feedback.

Cheryl K

The caregivers are very compassionate and dependable. They were helpful when we really needed them. They came in and helped my mom when I needed the extra help.

Tayyab Z

I always have someone here to attend my care. They help me the most with showers and cleaning me and getting dressed.

Francine F

They've been available. If I call and need a ride to my doctor's appointments, they find somebody. It helps a lot because I can't drive and they drive me. It frees me up for things that I feel that I have to do, like shopping and other things.

_12

They are on the ball and they send nice people out. They help me out. I need their help.

Mary Alice B

BrightStar Care does a good job for me. I get help from BrightStar Care every day. I am not able to walk so they help me with my bath, change my bed and get my meals.

Renee P

I found out they didn't have enough workers. BrightStar Care could have made life easier for me if they had more workers because I would give them a month's notice on the care that I needed, and I found it stressful that they would call me that morning to tell me that there was no one to take me on my errands.

Michelle B_2

BrightStar Care needs to communicate among themselves and hire better trained employees. In the beginning, the services made it worse because there was someone different everyday, but when we had a steady caregiver, my loved one was happy and well taken care of.

Virginia W_2

BrightStar Care's caregivers are personable and helpful. BrightStar Care has made life easier by doing chores around the house, errands, and providing transportation to doctor's appointments.

Anonymous_722

BrightStar Care does a good job, and is kind with me on the phone. I couldn't live without my caregivers.

Edward W_2

We were really satisfied with BrightStar Care. The staff was very good that my mother had. They had good follow-up. They impacted her very well. They would help transport her which impacted her daily life greatly.

Anonymous_358

I would recommend BrightStar Care, but it depends on where the clients live. They seem to have a hard time getting to my house. I appreciate that BrightStar Care has consistency.

Kathleen M_3

I would tell a friend that BrightStar Care is dependable and gets back to me quickly when finding someone to fill my requests. The caregivers help me because they are on time.

Harinder G

I would say that BrightStar Care was good overall, but some caregivers were not as experienced as others. BrightStar Care's services were good about washing my wife and generally taking care of her.
