NOTE: I worked Exclusively with April Godales…read more To begin with, I looked for someone to help in dealing with my mom for months. Had hideous luck. Some made things sound too easy, brought New Age Ethics into a Alzheimers Dementia situation that really wasn't apropos, and there were others who were more interested in me having Power Of Atty or an updated Advanced Health Care Directive. I met with people that before they came to the house admitted they were at best semi-competent. I am an Only Child, have no family, friends or neighbors who can help in a hands on way. Before April, I was completely adrift. April Godales and my family always worked on a handshake deal. She visited the family home. The Nursing Facility my mom was at after her fall had given her multiple fractures, and even was there 12 hours before my mom got to the Assisted Living to make sure the bed arrived properly. IT wasn't only April that told me ins and outs of my mom's Medicare and Insurance situation, it was April who guided me through where to get my mom decent Furnishings. To wit, my mom began in a Respite Stay situation and when I realized my mom should simply be a Long-Term Resident with 6 days to get everything within the unit. April didn't blink an eye. She was around on weekends and available until 10pm most nights. April Godales is a A Level Sherpa. I honestly don't know where I--and much more importantly my Mother--would be without her. But here's the thing: I still had a physical and mental breakdown the day after my mom got to her destination and was safe & happy watching her favorite channels on her new Color TV. April was an unparalleled guide. But it has to be a family member making all the toughest decisions. The thing that was great about her was she laid everything out in an understandable way, and left the client to formulate the best decision for the elderly loved one. April knows this. The Case Managers and Insurance Specialists at facilities know this. But I am not sure that all the people who will contact Assisted Living Locators fully grasp where her job ends, and family's responsibilities now begin. She does a world class job as a professional. But the weight still has to fall upon family shoulders. You have to do your own heavy lifting for the family member you love. You cannot phone it in. That said, I looked for months and April & Assisted Living Locators were the only team at all worth their salt when the chips were down and the walls were closing in all around around me.

Mom's Home Care provided 24/7 support for my father over several years, and they truly exceeded…read moreexpectations. After his COVID hospitalization, my father, in his 90's, needed full-time care. Through a referral, I contacted Mom's Home Care, and within a week they had arranged round-the-clock coverage with exceptional caregivers. The caregivers were reliable, compassionate, and attentive, providing outstanding care for my father. The case manager handled all logistics seamlessly, ensuring continuous coverage during vacations, illnesses, and unexpected situations. She was also a valuable source of practical advice throughout the process. As my father's dementia progressed, the team adapted to his changing needs and continued to provide excellent care all the way through to the end of his life including hospital stays and hospice care. Beyond the care itself, they were a calming and comforting presence for my father and gave me peace of mind when I wasn't there. Their care allowed my father to remain at home, which meant everything to our family. Thank you Mom's Home Care.

It was a stressful time as you can imagine. There are a lot of care decisions that need to be made and I had very little experience to fall back on. At the recommendation of a friend, I contacted Mom's Home Care. On that initial call they did a wonderful job explaining the process and answering our questions. Their guidance was invaluable and the care team they assembled was great. Thankfully, my dad is on his way to making a full recovery. The Mom's Home Care team was instrumental in making this possible.

NOW they want another $3,500 to basically change the pages of beneficiaries with the pages that I emailed to them. On a computer this would not take more than TEN minutes. It only took me 20 minutes to type it up myself from scratch using the original document as a template. I don't see ANY OTHER reviews of what happens a few years down the road. So, let me warn you - That is when you get treated like trash! I had to make several calls to get them to correct a clerical error THEY had made in my original document. (They had put the name of another client instead of mine upon whose death my charitable donation should be made.) I left numerous messages before anyone called me back. Something that should have been handled quickly required way too much effort on my part. NOW, I see what I did wrong. I should have charged them $3,000 for making the error that was CLEARLY just sloppy work on their part. Then there was the Email that that I kept getting from them with the title "No Time to Wait? Learn How to Update Your Trust in Our Free On-Demand Webinar". I got this email at least six times. When I clicked on it, there was absolutely NOTHING to do with updating your trust. I called the office to find out "what's up?" No reply. I sent an email. When I finally got a response to my email about this seminar, I got a reply from them saying there is no such video available - yet. When I got the same email about a week later - alerted the them and they assured me that I WOULD be REMOVED FROM THE LIST. Nothing was mentioned about removing this inaccurate email completely from others. I recently asked "Is it done yet?". I was told It is coming soon!
