Do not use their services! Needed a helper 2 times a week…read morefor my Mom. The helper they assigned left early by about 20-30 minutes her first shift. The 2nd shift she left an hour and twenty minutes early. Both times she clocked out at the time she was scheduled to end her shift. Falsifying her time card and we were billed the whole shift. After I complained, we decided to start fresh with a new helper. Found out the night before the new helper had car issues and couldn't take the shift. They found a new helper for the next shift, but she didn't show up and we didn't receive any notification that she wasn't coming. Upon calling and speaking with Araceli, I was told the new helper was uncomfortable that a family member might stop by to see how things were going. The helper just wanted to work with my Mom alone. HUGE RED FLAG. I left a message that I wanted to speak with Susan or Irene and neither would return my call. Found out later that the first helper that falsified her time card is still employed by the agency. Beware, they do not communicate well and will clearly bill you for services you do not receive. I had to tell them to remove the charges. Extremely unprofessional and unethical business.

She was in great pain and needed a caregiver to stay awake at night to administer pain medication and help her as needed. On four separate occasions, we tried Senior Helpers services, and each time was a disappointment. On the first night, the caregiver gave my mother inaccurate meds. Later that night she refused to wake me (I was staying in the room next door to my mom) and my mother had to scream my name to get help in administering her pain medication. I believe she didn't want to get in trouble because she did not want to appear like she didn't know what she was doing. I woke up and basically had to oversee her caregiver in giving care to my mom, which defeated the point of paying for overnight care. (I needed to sleep at night in order to serve as my mom's primary caregiver during the day.) The next day, we called and complained and were assured we would get a better caregiver. The second night, the new caregiver fell asleep repeatedly, even though we had explicitly requested someone who could stay awake all night. She allowed my mom to fall on two separate occasions while trying to get out of bed to go to the bathroom. She even yelled at my mom to "Get up!" while my mom was lying was on the floor. My mom sustained several large bruises on her hip and shoulder and was understandably traumatized. Again, we called to complain and again we were reassured we would get a better caregiver the following day. We were desperate for care so we agreed to try a new person. The next day a new caregiver came who again fell asleep on the job. My mom woke up in the middle of the night disoriented and called out to her and heard no response. She was terrified to find herself alone in a dark room. My mom's daytime regular caregiver walked into my mom's room to take the dog out in the morning and my mom burst into tears. When questioned about my mom's reaction, the Senior Helper caregiver lied and told me she was awake and accused my mom's regular caregiver of waking my mom. She also rudely called my mom's regular daytime caregiver "your girl", which we both found racist and offensive, as she is a grown woman and is not owned by me (or anyone else for that matter.) After three horrible experiences, we called to complain and were again assured things would get better with a hospice trained caregiver. We were suspicious but out of desperation we decided to give Senior Helpers one more chance. We decided to interview her first. When we did, we explained she must stay awake the entire night. As we were speaking with her she began nodding off, as if she were on drugs. When we commented on this she stated, "It's OK." We told her, "No, it's not OK", thanked her for coming, and told her we did not want her services and sent her home. I don't know where Senior Helpers finds its caregivers, but of all the four nighttime caregivers Senior Helpers sent us, all endangered my mother's safety by sleeping on the job (one even slept with her hood covering her ears and eyes!). Even worse, my mom was emotionally traumatized by having to argue with caregivers to get pain medication or because they yelled at her for falling or waking up confused in the night. After this upsetting experience we immediately hired an in home care provider via MiFiji Homecare, and our amazing caregiver needed to spend two weeks in my mother's room to help her feel safe again overnight with a caregiver. My mother and I have no doubt that the caregivers we received from Senior Helpers seemed perfectly comfortable yelling at clients (whom we assume intern have dementia) and lying to family members about the care they provide. If you care about your parents, steer clear of this eldercare agency! The owner may want to say he doesn't know me. This is not true. My mother was Arna Munford. And unlike other clients, she did NOT have dementia or mental illness and was able to communicate the abusive and negligent behavior she experienced. I witnessed it too. This agency should be shut down. Do not out your loved ones in their care.

Jenny the owner of Senior Helpers and her amazing team of caregivers recently saved my day at a time of need -- so I know they can save yours! After interviewing several home health care agencies that serve my area I chose Senior Helpers to assist me with needed services post-surgery. Jenny and all of her caregivers were astonishing: utterly professional, consistently dependable and, perhaps most importantly, sincerely caring and compassionate toward their clients and about their work. And, Senior Helpers is very reasonably priced. I am deeply grateful for the assistance of Senior Helpers at a critical time of need. I will continue to use them in the future to help with tasks made difficult due to aging and physical disability. You have a great team, and run an excellent business, Jenny. Thanks so much!!!

I am writing this review to document serious concerns regarding the care my family received from…read moreSenior Helpers while providing in-home assistance for my mother, who was terminally ill with glioblastoma brain cancer. It has taken me over a year to write this, as the experience was emotionally draining and deeply upsetting. Senior Helpers was originally recommended for light assistance, but my mother required hospice-level care. Management represented that caregivers assigned to our home would be trained for this level of care. Based on our experience, this was not consistently the case. Multiple caregivers demonstrated limited training in personal hygiene, patient mobility, medication handling, and overnight monitoring. I personally had to step in or assist on numerous occasions. Some caregivers stated their training consisted primarily of instructional videos. While several individuals were kind and well-intentioned, they did not appear adequately prepared for end-of-life care. There were several patient safety concerns, including: A medication administration error in which more than the intended dose was given, despite clear instructions that caregivers were not to administer medications at all. Improper assistance with patient mobility, even though appropriate equipment was available. Overnight shifts where required monitoring did not occur. Specific instructions regarding my mother's physical limitations being ignored, resulting in a fall (thankfully without serious injury). Caregivers sleeping or using personal phones for extended periods during scheduled shifts. Additionally, a member of management charged me cash during a home visit that I was later told was supposed to be free. When I raised this issue, it was denied despite the interaction being documented on in-home cameras. These incidents were documented and shared with management. Responses generally focused on staff replacement and billing rather than addressing broader concerns related to training, supervision, or systemic issues. Staffing reliability was also inconsistent. Some caregivers arrived late, some shifts went uncovered, and continuity of care was limited. A small number of caregivers were excellent, but they were the exception rather than the norm. When I raised concerns with management and ownership, communication was difficult and unprofessional, and many questions went unanswered. Contractual notice requirements limited our ability to immediately discontinue services despite ongoing safety concerns. We eventually transitioned to another care provider. After doing so, my mother's care stabilized, and the overall stress in our home decreased significantly. Based on our experience, I would urge extreme caution when considering Senior Helpers for hospice-level or complex medical care. Families in similar situations should carefully evaluate caregiver training, supervision practices, and escalation procedures--and read the contract closely. Update: 1/7/2026 In response to the owner's reply requesting that I reach out by phone, I did so today. I left a message stating that I was returning the owner's request for contact and noted that I preferred not to speak with the manager due to prior communication difficulties. Approximately 15 minutes later, I received a call from that same manager. She was polite, expressed surprise at my experience, and stated that she did not recall our prior interactions. I responded calmly and professionally. The call lasted approximately three minutes. The conversation was brief and respectful on both sides. Later this afternoon, I was contacted by my local police department and informed that a complaint had been made alleging that my call involved threatening language or profanity. Those allegations do not reflect my recollection of the call, which was professional in tone and made solely in response to the owner's public request for contact. I explained this context and was advised not to contact the company again. I agreed. Thankfully both conversations were recorded by my security cam with time & day stamps. The officer said I could file a false police report, but decided I just needed to more on... and so should you.
