What can I say about Accentcare Hospice in Pinellas County FL?? They put profits over patients all…read morethe time.... yet they hide it well behind their rainbows & sunshine hospice philosophy and mission statement. They regularly fabricate medical record documentation to gain as many new patients as they can so they can make their numbers quota... while teetering dangerously close to medical fraud. Management is incompetent, unprofessional, & condescending. They are also fake, back-stabbing, and wont hesitate to throw their staff under the bus. They also play favorites. Unless you're an a##-kissing 'yes maam' proficient in sucking up... you likely wont have a chance in hell of being treated fairly here. The phrase "equal opportunities employer" is a joke at Pinellas Accentcare. Overall staff moral is always low... but not surprising with everyone being overworked, short-staffed, and under-paid. Payrates are about $3-5/hr lower than the other local hospice agencies in the area. Corporate is well aware of this wide gap and makes no attempts to stay salary-competitive. Nor do they care that they lose good employees all the time for this reason. There is always high rates of staff quitting... but you would expect that when managers take their employees for granted, dont appreciate them, dont pay them what they deserve, and treat them disrespectfully. But the best is upper management's shameful turning of a blind eye to employee bullying & abuse under their noses, and their blatent refusal to put a stop to hostile workplace environments. And dont expect any help or resolutions from HR in these situations... they are lazy & absolutely useless. They will even find a way to have you written up if you speak out or file complaints. I've never worked for a company that was such a shameful disgrace as Accentcare Pinellas. Do yourself a favor and pass on this company... you deserve MUCH better.

My experience with Seniors Helping Seniors in The Villages was going great, until I mentioned that…read moreI needed to know where the caregiver, David, was taking my husband. They dropped us after two straight months because I made one comment. My husband has cancer and awful dementia and I needed to know where he was taken. Now I have no caregiver for him. I am very disappointed with this service. Please don't use them. They take your money and don't care about the client.

The guy they sent, David M, thought I was a terrible wife, asked personal questions, and even…read moreshowed me a picture of he and his girlfriend together. He goes to church, I guess to pick up women. He also mentioned, in detail, the time a gay friend grabbed him in the hot tub. He asked me on two occasions if I would remarry. None of his business. He was my husband's caregiver, far too nosy and personal for my taste. But my husband liked him. On Monday I said, "If the rec center won't let you play pool because of the election, please bring my husband back home." My exact words to David, but he didn't bring him home. They drove around and went to another rec center. Free mileage for me because I wasn't supposed to know that they left. My husband has bad dementia, and metastatic bone cancer, and cannot be saying where he wants to go. I have to know where my husband is, and made that clear. So because I complained, I lost a caregiver and have to cancel my doctors' appointments, no advance warning at all. My husband is very upset that his friend isn't coming back. I wanted someone else that played pool; they didn't have anyone else. I should be able to know where they go without losing the service. Buyer beware!!!

I called the agency under urgent circumstances at 11pm and Nicola called me back within 30 minutes.

The caregivers she put in place were lovely women and I am thankful they were with my mother all the way to the end of my mother's life. I trust Nicola and her team immensely and would highly recommend her and her company to anyone in need of caregiver services.

It is hard to be a remote caregiver. Veterans Serving Seniors just made a very difficult task…read moreeasy. My elderly uncle lives in Florida most of the year but like many snow birds, he returns north in the summer. This year, he finally agreed to give up driving much to my relief. However, the logistics of getting him packed to TSA standards, making sure his home was secured, handing off his car to a transportation company and getting him safely on his flight was daunting. Veterans Serving Seniors came to my rescue. They were immediately responded to my first email and kept in both touch prior and during his trip north. Phil and a colleague arrived promptly at my uncle's home in St. Petersburg the morning of his trip. They made sure it was locked, closed storm shutters and even reviewed my detailed list of "must pack" items with him prior to setting out. They drove him and his car to the transportation depot and took pictures of the car prior to shipping for insurance purposes. Once the transport paperwork was signed, they took him on to the airport and personally walked him in and waited with him until a Jet Blue representative took him off for his flight. I had no concerns at all as I got text messages at every stage like a perfectly coordinated military maneuver. You can't get this kind of service from a taxi or limo service. The price was very reasonable too. I will absolutely utilize the services of Veterans Serving Seniors for his return trip and for additional needs once he is back in Florida.

Mom's medications are complex and difficult to manage, which led to many problems, including depression and ill health. The skill, professionalism and above all, the compassion and individualized care that Chenita has given to our Mom has dramatically improved my Mom's quality of life - and ours! Our Mom is physically active for the first time in years, is happier and so much healthier and truly it is all because of Happy Hearts Senior Care. They help organize (and pick up) medications, drive Mom for day to day tasks, healthier eating, blood pressure checks, drive to and attend doctor's appointments, communicate to Mom and the family what the doctor's say (it's not always very clear what a doctor tells you), walks on the pier with dolphin sightings, companion for special events - whatever Mom needs on any given day, Chenita makes sure she gets it! On a scale of 1-5, they are a 100+. The entire family feels like we not only got a highly qualified and extemely trustworthy RN to assist my Mom, but we all feel the love and genuine care she has shown to my Mom - and for that we are all grateful to have found this treasure!
