    If this group could get 100 stars on this site, that still wouldn't be enough. We were given…read moreSenior Helper's name by a group that helps find caregivers, assisted living facilities and nursing homes. Our quite elderly mother was in need of home care. In reaching out to Senior Helpers, they were immediately responsive to our needs. They came to Mom's home, checked things out, talked with her and then called to say they were on board with helping us. All of Mom's children are out of state and so it was important to have people we could trust that were there and close to Mom. There were a few hiccups the second week. Senior Helpers were at Mom's home the next day, addressed any issues and assured us that there wouldn't be any more problems, and they were right. Now to the amazing part. Mom became terminal pretty quickly and Hospice was called in. It was determined that someone needed to be with Mom 24/7. A family member was there with Mom by that time but had to leave to go home, out of state. There would be a lapse of 36 hours before a family member would be with Mom again. So what does Senior Helpers offer up? They will stay overnight and all day with Mom until another family member arrives. This was done on 2 days notice. When asking them if they were able to find someone to stay overnight with Mom, the woman that answered the phone (Kim) said that if they didn't have any caregivers available, SHE WOULD COME AND STAY OVERNIGHT WITH MOM! Who, in this day and age, does that? In a time of high stress for us, these people were amazing. I would highly recommend this group to anyone. Nothing/no one is perfect but they come pretty darn close.

    If your loved one needs more care than simply sitting in front of the television all day, do not…read morecall Senior Helpers. Their claim of being "experts in Alzheimer's and dementia care" is one of the biggest jokes in recent history. Alz/Dem patients need consistency and routine. Senior Helpers meets this need with a rotating door of caregivers. Plus, their ever-dwindling staff is just the right size to provide no back-up options in case your caregiver calls off sick. Alz/Dem patients need constant attention and interaction. Senior Helpers more than meets this need with its extensive library of ambient videos of fish and other animals. Your loved one will get all of the love and attention he or she needs with constant reminders from the caregiver to "Watch the video" or "Look at the cute little kitten." Alz/Dem patients need assistance with most of the basic daily tasks. A seasoned Senior Helpers caregiver will always make sure your loved one goes to the bathroom unless he or she resists in any way. Then, you'll come home to soiled pants and other dirty laundry. Alz/Dem patients need to take medication daily. Count on Senior Helpers to assist with this task until your loved one experiences any level of trouble with it. Then, you will be told that any task involving medication requires medical training, which Senior Helpers does not provide. So, what does Senior Helpers provide? If you're looking for a caregiver who's the equivalent of a car pool dummy, then I suggest you give them a call.

Any issues are quickly addressed and caregivers are carefully chosen for the best fit. As a local company communication is quick and easy for questions and solutions I'm happy to give Lavender Home Care the highest recommendation.

    Hello again. I recently left a negative review for Lavender Home Care and I now need to update it…read more Evidently, Yelp does not take down reviews, so I will temper the original review with what has happened since. Unfortunately, I had a misunderstanding with Lavender and the initial conversation did not go well. But the owner of the company, Bernard, found out about it and spent a lot of time resolving the issues. It is commendable that he went above and beyond what was required to make the situation right. So I would like to say that although we had a disagreement, Bernard stuck with ironing it out until we reached a satisfactory conclusion. I regret that I was so upset with them in the beginning when some reasonable conversation was able to smooth things over. Also, I have had an excellent home health aide through Lavender for several years. We have become very good friends and I look forward to her visit each week. She is like my right arm around the house now. Bernard did make sure that I got an aide that was a good fit for me and that is part of this kind of business that sends help to older folks in their homes. That kind of assistance is invaluable for me and I appreciate that Bernard took the time to see that everything was taken care of going forward. Thanks, Lavender, for these several years of fine service.
