Senior Care in Clinton, WI

"I like the way they screen their employees at Bright Star. We've been using this agency since February. The care we receive is great. The caregiver keeps the house clean, does the dishes and helps with preparing meals. She has a very pleasant attitude and is a hard worker. I really like the way she just goes about doing the work without us having to direct her. She just comes in and starts doing it. I would highly recommend Bright Star's services. "

"I used the services of Mercy Healthcare for about 3 weeks. I preferred the agency because the location was convenient. The caregiver was wonderful. She changed the dressing on my wound and a registered nurse came and checked on me three times a week. I liked that they were concerned for my well-being. "

"We used OSF hospice to care for my wife's mother for her last few weeks with us. They were extremely courteous and polite. They cared for my mother in law the entire time. Whenever there was an emergency situation, they responded immediately to tend to her needs and kept us involved through it all. We are especially grateful to Elizabeth (the hospice nurse) who was assigned to our mother's case. She and ma would talk and share stories and photo's. We strongly recommend using OSF's hospice service's."

"I have been using Compassionate Care Services - Rockford, IL for three weeks now. They are very good. They're doing some personal care, laundry, and companionship for my mom. She's in a facility where she gets some supportive services, but I have Compassionate Care basically as a supplement. They come in for three hours a day and two days a week. The first caregiver didn't work out, but the second one could be a good choice. The management has been great."

"I am using Help at Home and it's very fine. I have a very, very good caregiver. I have 20 hours and she works with me all week except for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. She does light housekeeping, we go to the groceries, doctors' appointments, and shopping. I've had them since about five years, and four of them is with my current health caregiver. She is a great person. She is very caring. You can never get through on the phone with them though, but one time my caregiver had a day off, and they wanted to know if I was OK. And my gosh, I had a lot of people that day here, so I had some help as well."

"We got Heartland Hospice Services for my father before he passed away. We had a nurse who was supposed to come two or three times a week, but they were coming every day for my dad. A CNA was coming daily. They did offer coming once a week for helping with bathing and things. They were all wonderful with my dad."

"great people, and great care "

"A friend who has worked with Comfort Keepers recommended them. I interviewed them, and we have been very happy. My mother-in-law has help coming in for a couple of days a week. That's working out for what she needs right now. I was impressed with the background check, the things they do for their workers, and the training they provide them. Their workers are very friendly and cheerful, since Mom has been dealing with depression. They've been very encouraging to her. They also tried to match a person to her. My mother-in-law is very religious and they tried to take that into account. A couple of women who came seemed to share it with her because you could tell that they are Christians. They would comment on things to her, and it made her feel comfortable. She had basically the same person for quite a while before the person left the agency. For now she has a new young girl who is very sweet and is a hard worker. If Mom asks her to do things this way, she accommodates it. Mom is actually doing better now. "

"This is by far the Hospice to go with. They remember why and for whom they are in place, the RESIDENT and their families. Good communicators that listen and address issues fast. Trained staff. Caring and professional from the initial phone call to the implementation of equipment and services. Not a favorite with our assisted living facility because VNA operates with the integrity needed for DIGNIFIED Hospice care. "

"We have been using caregivers from Visiting Angels for close to 2 years. The caregivers are very kind and attentive to our mom. She is very dependent and they provide for all of her needs-cooking,cleaning, bathing, feeding. They arrive on time and we are always informed if there will be changes. We have needed some extra days covered and they have always been able to accommodate. Highly recommend Visiting Angels!"

"We are using Community Care right now. They are not doing a good job; not one that I’m satisfied with, at least. My mother needs care four days a week, and they send someone three days a week. On the fourth day, she is left alone. I am not pleased with that. I am actively looking for another agency in the area. Their scheduling isn’t good, but their billing is OK. She gets her bill paid through Medicaid. The quality of the people they are sending is not that good. They supply her with someone for about five hours, four days a week. She has early Alzheimer’s, so they are there to make her food, do her laundry, clean her house, take her where she needs to go, and help her shower. The couple of people who they sent have been OK. They sent a young man out and my mother said that he was very good. He went into the basement and did the laundry and folded it and she thought that was really nice. I talked to a couple of the ladies on the phone who told us what they were not going to do. They weren't asked to do anything out of the ordinary, but she asked one of the ladies to vacuum the stairs and she said she was not going to do that because she thought that was dangerous."

"The Northern Illinois Hospice and Grief Center sent people to take care of my mom while she was at the nursing home and they were just super caring. They were very good and just wonderful. "

"So far, Taking Care Of Our Seniors has been wonderful. The caregivers are great, here 24/7, and perform well. I have two girls who alternate. They're really friendly, and my husband seems to appreciate them. They've given me a chance to rest and do my thing. "
