This review is long overdue for Czarina and her team at Premier Homecare Angels. Right before…read moreThanksgiving 2023, my parents moved in with me and my family after my father had a triple bypass surgery. While he was recovering, my mother was later diagnosed with dementia. My husband and I quickly became overwhelmed with juggling our four school-aged kids with the differing needs of my elderly parents. We shared these challenges with Czarina and with her encouragement and help, she introduced us to Aurora, one of her amazing caregivers. Aurora was meant to assist with caring for my mom. Aurora became our angel at home for the two days/nights she was with us. As a very experienced caregiver, she gave us a brief reprieve in the middle of the week which helped us spend time alone with our kids since we knew my parents were being well cared for at home. Aurora is warm, patient, and loving. She took such good care of my mom and I will be eternally grateful for that. It was a plus that Aurora was a great cook and regularly cleaned my parents' room and did their laundry. Because she spoke Tagalog, I could hear my mom and her talking for hours during the day. She prepared my parents meals, cleaned up after them, bathed her and helped her in the bathroom. She even went with my mom to the hair salon, and fixed my mom's hair beautifully after her baths. There came a point when my parents decided to move into a senior community. Czarina was there again to help us. She called around to see what places had openings, walked us through the process of obtaining the necessary forms from Kaiser (and even called the doctor to help us get it signed), and gave us an idea of what to expect in those settings. This was my family's first experience with a caregiver and searching for a senior home. We were definitely more than satisfied with Czarina's guidance, as well as Aurora's kindness and gentle care for our mom. Thank you Premier Angels! If you're in need of some help for yourself or a loved one, look no further. Call Czarina and she'll help guide you as to what options might be best depending on your individual needs.

We thought she needed a break since she's his caretaker 24/7 so I started reaching out to local in home care provider. Premier Homecare Angels representative, Tedd, was very responsive, called me right away that same evening regarding my needs and explained everything I needed to know. They put me at ease and assured me just by sharing their knowledge of the whole process and empathy towards the whole situation. They made it simple! Next step was for someone to come into my aunts home to assess and ensure they needs I had described to them that we were looking for was accurate and to find a caregiver match with both my uncle and aunt. They were so flexible and when I scheduled the visit Tedd came out himself to assess on a Saturday, a few days after my initial call. That's great as we were looking to start the in home care services asap! Wow we were so impressed by his attentiveness, candor and putting my aunt and uncle as ease when we met. Long story short, we decided to move forward with Premier Homecare Angels. Tedd found a match for us with our care needs and schedule and sent someone out the following week! Great service, communication and flexible/willing to work with the client! Great all around! Unfortunately, my aunt/uncle are relocating to Arizona soon so this is a short term assignment but I wouldn't hesitate to reach out to them again if I ever need any in home care services!

A Truly Heaven‑Sent Home Care Experience I stumbled upon…read moreHeavens Home Care during one of the most challenging chapters of my career. My client -- a difficult, abrasive, and deeply wounded man -- had just been relocated from Marin to the East Bay. He was on the brink of homelessness, angry at the world, and nearly impossible to reach. After securing him a forever home in Hayward, I knew he needed more than a roof over his head. He needed connection. He needed patience. He needed someone who could see past the thorns. Enter Heavens Home Care. From the very beginning, I was fortunate enough to secure weekly companionship through their team, and that's when Sela stepped into his life. What happened next was nothing short of remarkable. This was not an easy case. It was an uphill battle every single week. But Sela -- with her warmth, her steadiness, and her unwavering compassion -- broke through a crusty old shell that many had given up on. She didn't just provide care; she provided humanity. She saw the man beneath the anger, and slowly, gently, she coaxed him back into the light. Over time, I watched a transformation I never thought possible. The man who once barked at anyone who dared get close began to soften. He laughed. He opened up. He trusted. He blossomed into someone almost unrecognizable -- a true ray of sunshine where there had once been only storm clouds. What grew between Sela and my client was far more than a caregiver‑patient relationship. It became a genuine friendship, built on respect, patience, and the kind of tender loving care that can only come from someone who truly believes in the work they do. Heavens Home Care is, without question, family. Not just in name, but in spirit, in action, and in the way they show up for the people who need them most. If you are looking for care that goes beyond the checklist -- care that heals, uplifts, and transforms -- look no further. Heavens Home Care lives up to its name in every possible way.

I recently contacted Alice Home Care for some advice as I had used them for my uncle during the…read morepandemic. I needed advice about help I needed in an area that Alice Home Care did not service and Alice was very helpful with a referral and also helped me with concerns I had with that other agency. The direct care I had with working with Alice Home Care was over the top. We were in the pandemic. My uncle had fallen and had Covid and needed home care. Alice met me at the house and we proceeded to get information from my cousin about what was needed for his father. Then my cousin fell ill during the talk. Alice saw the severity of the situation and brought in help within a couple of hours. This was amazing. And so badly needed. Eventually a longer term solution was found by Alice and the care was used for several months until my uncle moved to assisted living. Alice Home Care came to the rescue, brought in care that the family appreciated, and was very open in communications.

I had help from my family for the first week but did not know much help I would need after that. At 84 and living alone in a house with many stairs, I anticipated needing some care. I called Alice after the first week, seeking help with a range of concerns - I could not easily ice the wound on my own. Cooking and even minimal housekeeping were. still impossible. Having support nearby when I began showering felt essential. Alice listened carefully to my needs and hopes and set up a caretaker beginning just two days later. I could not have been more satisfied, my helper was organized, efficient, and very responsive. I felt cared for, the house felt clean and well stocked, she cooked and cleaned up as needed with minimal direction. Highly recommend.

Although the initial intake went extremely well the service that followed was substandard. The…read moreperson working on my mother's Medicaid Application often asked for documents at the last minute that required time to be retrieved as they were not available online, she miscalculated the amount for the pre-funeral costs which resulted in a bank overdraft, and she could not recall if a document essential to the application was sent for the review. Eventually my mother's application was approved, but 4 months later we received a penalty notice which stopped the Medicaid payments for 6 1/2 months. When I first sent the notice to the worker she thought it was just a routine form letter until the nursing home confirmed that it was not. After paying all of the money to the company I no longer have confidence that they are Medicaid experts and have needed to spend more money to hire an Elder Care Certified Attorney to file the appeal. It seems that it would be much better to hire Certified Elder Care Law Firms in your state rather than a nationwide organization that has paraprofessionals handling such important matter.

We highly recommend Grace and Advanced In-Home Care. This was all new to us and when we called…read moreGrace, she was incredibly quick to respond, making time to meet that same day and provide care that night! She is an expert in what one might need - something that we really appreciated as this was new space we were navigating. Grace has a well trained team who are compassionate, lovely and gracious. She is impeccably organized, creating a month-long calendar and schedules so that your loved one will have as few disruptions as possible - providing a consistency in which only a few caregivers are chosen for your week or month. This was a stressful time with lots of unknowns (including financially) and all we wanted was to ensure the best care for our loved one. Grace will make it as straight forward as possible and provide care givers that you and your loved one will love. We are beyond grateful we found Grace and team and highly recommend to all of our family and friends. You will be thrilled you called her!

Both my parents had the benefit of her team (mom was paralyzed and bedridden, and dad has dementia) and each set of caregivers were experienced for the different levels of care that was needed. Also, I appreciated the open and honest dialogue that I had with Grace (she is very understanding and never defensive). Grace's back office was great as well. Invoices were timely and accurate. Although our family is moving out-of-state, I hope to find another care agency with as wonderful a team as the one here with Advanced In-Home Care.

The intake nurse called me on Friday and left a voice message that she would like to see my mom the following morning. She also texted me at the same time. I immediately called my mom to confirm and called her back in less them 10 minutes. No answer so I left a voice mail and a text to confirm Saturday. No response even though i returned the message immediately. The following evening she text again asking to come on Monday. I left a voice message and asked her to call me to schedule to avoid another miscommunication. No reply ever. My mom never got the home health she was ordered. No follow up whatsoever by the nurse or the company. It's a good thing I am a proactive daughter and followed up right away with her primary care physician. A more vulnerable patient without an advocate would be left high and dry.

Once treatment was not an option he was referred to home hospice and they quickly enrolled him and began providing comfort care. They made sure he had all the equipment he needed to be comfortable.

They were always responsive when I called and when my dad passed, they helped me give him his last bath. In these tough times we think that we are the only ones that need attention, I get it, I've been there but they did a marvelous job and I'm pleased with the support we received. Thank you all!!!

My 90 year old Mom has been in and out of the hospital and they recommended home health care. Due to a slight clerical error of the hospital, I was connected with St. Jude home health agency when I originally chose another one. I do believe that nothing is accidental but incidental and I truly can say I was guided to the right path. St. Jude Agency was heaven sent. Maria and Rhyan, both Physical Therapist and the founders of St Jude Agency are nothing less than Very Professional. They staff their agency with the most professional and very personable medical in the business. They treat my Mom as if she was their own Mother and their expertise in their profession will direct a patient only one way and thats to the road to recovery. I would give this agency 6 stars if I could. I will in full confidence, recommend this agency to everyone! Thank you St Jude!
