Agency Rating
Virginia S
I like how the agency is sending the bill for long time care. The agency follows up very well.
5 / 5Mark S
I would recommend them because they gave good service. They did personal care for her.
5 / 5Chris M
I think they need to provide better communication and details between home care and scheduling. I liked that they sent homecare individuals that were appropriative for their needs.
4 / 5Jody I
They are flexible. She is just in a hard situation.
4.25 / 5Garry B
There is no continuity with the nurses and the main nurse. There is limited knowledge and they don't seem to have the medical knowledge if a problem were to arise. The contact between them and the caregiver on the site or someone with more knowledge could be their biggest improvement. They sent one girl out who didn't know about oxygen, and I had to explain it to her. The people were good, but some of them weren't trained. Some were good and some were okay.
3.75 / 5Gail K
I would recommend them because they worked very hard and have found people that work with him well. They have helped the most by taking care of him and him personal needs.
5 / 5Marion G
I like the clientele that has been sent. It helps me immensely.
4 / 5Anonymous
The gal we have is very good. When we had to start getting help, I told him he can't be a grumpy old man, he needs to be kind and funny to them, and they will be willing to help him. He's done that and they get along fine.
4.5 / 5Nancy C
The caregiver I currently have comes in and knows what my needs are, and she stepped right in and is very calm, helpful and wonderful. It's been a huge difference to me.
4.5 / 5Wendy B
I liked that they always made sure that someone was available for us. They were reliable, and they allowed her to get better and be on her own.
5 / 5Elaine S
The price could be lower. Keep me informed on who might be coming.
3.5 / 5Nancy M
Right now, I would recommend the agency. I like that I can call them on the weekends about scheduling and get called back. I hired caregivers to come to be with my husband so that I could have alone time.
4.25 / 5Anonymous
They have always been on time for us. The company has been reliable for us.
4.5 / 5Sarah H
They are friendly and flexible. They provide a constant presence.
5 / 5Ronald S
We haven't had any issues at all with them, they have been very prompt with us. The one caregiver we have is super; she does every task we ask, and she is a good cook as well. She has helped my wife to get better.

We were very fortunate to get a caregiver who is very helpful. I don't have to tell her what to do. My husband has Parkinson's and I have macular degeneration. We appreciate and need the care.
4.5 / 5Anonymous
I think it is very dependent on the caregivers because some are great and others are not. They were very responsive and flexible.

They have been very good, efficient, and on time. She loved having them there and they helped the most with companionship. She loves to sit and have lunch with them.
4.25 / 5Elizabeth

4.25 / 5Vandra D
The caregivers have been very great. We are very happy with the care being provided and the chores that are done.
5 / 5Anonymous
They could improve communication with the responsible party. They would have more of an impact on our daily lives if they communicated more often with me.
3.5 / 5Paul
They could have better scheduling, more reliable help, and higher quality people. When they are there and the right person is there, it is helpful. When they don't show up, they are more disruptive than anything.
2 / 5Dorinne R
They respond very well. They just couldn't provide anybody in the evenings.
5 / 5Suzanne C
I like that they seem to be well-trained and vetted, and I like that I can submit them to my insurance company. I appreciate that they do what I would do so I can be gone knowing they're there.
4.75 / 5Sally R
I like that they've been effective in all areas like following up. They've been exceptionally good, she provides assistance when I can't perform certain tasks.

We were billed for a transfer but we did not receive it. If they had been truthful and honest with the days that she was there, they could have made my life easier. They billed us for more time.
0.5 / 5Janet B
I like that everyone has been knowledgeable. I like the fact that the staff will call me regularly.

They were very thorough. There was one nurse we did not click with. They give and care while going above and above.
5 / 5Catherine M
They're efficient, timely, nice people, and they're good at their jobs. They are nice to have around. I get infused 5 hours a day 2 days in a row every 28 days. This makes the difference in whether I live or die.
5 / 5Betty L
They had experience before we worked with them. They take her to the grocery store. They take her to doctor's appointments.

I'd tell them that they were very much on time. Their caregivers were qualified, and my mother enjoyed them. The impact was great. She improved. They had caregivers show up on time. They were personable.

The aides are good. They help a lot. My mother has dementia.
5 / 5Diane F
I like that they are great people and very reliable. They take me to get lab work done and they do light housekeeping.
5 / 5Patricia A
They should offer more availability. They should give me a choice of hours when others are available.

I've had excellent luck with the caregivers that have been sent to me. They're quite necessary, and I have certain disabilities that require me to have assistance. For many reasons, I have several deformed issues in my back, so it necessitates that I have somebody available.
