When my mom was diagnosed with ALS, her decline was rapid and devastating. She lost mobility from…read morethe neck down and required full physical transfers. Before finding Homewatch CareGivers, I had gone through at least three different agencies. Each assured me they had experience with ALS, understood its unique challenges, and could safely care for someone with advanced mobility needs. Unfortunately, that wasn't our experience. By the time I found Kelly and her team, I was exhausted, overwhelmed, scared, and running out of hope. Kelly came to our home for an initial visit, and from the moment she walked through the door, I had a good feeling. She listened carefully, understood the complexity of my mom's condition, and talked us through scheduling options. Most importantly, she recommended a two-caregiver approach to ensure my mom's safety during transfers. Within a week, Homewatch CareGivers had highly qualified caregivers in place and ready to help. Homewatch CareGivers truly became a lifeline for our family. As my mom's condition changed, the caregivers adapted seamlessly. When she could no longer chew and needed pureed meals, they didn't simply blend everything together. They thoughtfully prepared and plated each of her favorite foods individually, preserving both dignity and enjoyment. They learned how to operate her power wheelchair, helped us navigate new equipment, and frequently offered insights and suggestions that even some medical professionals had not considered. Throughout the entire journey, we were met with compassion, respect, and genuine empathy. One of the hardest realities of ALS is watching people lose their voice and mobility. Too often, others begin to treat them differently or speak around them. That never happened with our Homewatch CareGivers team. They always treated my mom as the intelligent, capable woman she was, ensuring she remained at the center of every conversation and decision. When we purchased an eye-gaze communication device, the caregivers learned how to set it up and use it. In fact, they became so proficient that there were times they understood it better than I did. Kelly's level of involvement and support was extraordinary. She didn't just check on my mom; she checked on our entire family. She provided a sense of safety and security that allowed me to continue working while knowing my mom was receiving exceptional care. Over time, the caregivers became part of our family. As ALS progressed, there were moments when we weren't ready to accept how much things had changed. Kelly gently guided us through each next step, whether that meant implementing overnight care, adjusting schedules, or helping us understand hospice options. Her guidance was always thoughtful, compassionate, and exactly what we needed. Sadly, we lost my mom in March. I can say without hesitation that we would not have made it through those 14 months without Homewatch CareGivers, Kelly, and the incredible team of caregivers who stood beside us every step of the way. Words cannot adequately express our gratitude for their professionalism, kindness, dedication, and love. When the end came, members of the Homewatch CareGivers team came to be by my mom's side and say goodbye. Even after her passing, Kelly and her team have continued to check in on our family and offer support. If you have a loved one with ALS or another degenerative neurological condition, I cannot recommend Homewatch CareGivers highly enough. Their expertise goes far beyond caregiving--they understand the disease, they support the family, and they provide compassionate care that preserves dignity every step of the way. Quite simply, we could not have navigated this journey without them, and our family will be forever grateful

This review is an overall review of "Care with Love." I will be writing further reviews of the…read morevarious caretakers that I have had with this company. I have to put some background information here so that you as a reader can understand how exceptional this company is! I was in the hospital recovering from surgery for 9 days when I was discharged to a skilled nursing facility on Wednesday mid-afternoon. (Also being reviewed) Unfortunately, this facility was beyond terrible and I needed to go to the emergency room in the middle of the night for pain relief and my prescribed medications, none of which were available at the nursing facility when I needed them. (I had been without pain medication for eight full hours and was in tears and shaking like a leaf and the nurses didn't have the ability to provide relief other than being frustrated and angry with me. I called an ambulance and returned to the emergency room at the hospital where I had been treated. After the doctors had treated my pain enough that I could think things through. I realized that I didn't want to return to the nursing facility, (although I would have to go back for paperwork) but also that I couldn't go home without 24/7 help for the time being. I used my cell phone to look up "Best home health care near me," and after reading through a few sites I set my sights on "Care with Love." I called "Care with Love" around 7:30 AM on Thursday morning. I was discharged and picked up from the emergency room by 8:00- 8:30 AM and returned to the nursing home. This is where "Care with Love" really began to shine!!!! One of the administrators, Mandy, answered my call, and after hearing my situation agreed that I needed help. By 8:00/8:30 AM, I was discharged and returned to the nursing facility. I was met at the nursing facility, (which I will review in depth, separately), by Claire, from Care with Love. After a short while, Claire helped me get all of my paperwork finished and I was on my way towards returning home. By 10:30 AM, and just in time for my pain meds and morning meds, I was greeted by Alexis, a CNA/Caregiver (Certified Nursing Assistant/Caregiver) with Care with Love. Alexis packed all my belongings, helped me to do my final paperwork from the nursing facility, and had me in a wheelchair on the way to her car. A short drive home, and I was finally somewhere safe, comfortable and well taken care of!! I never expected this help to come so quickly and was in a panic attack that I might have to stay at that nursing facility!! I hired Care with Love for 7 days, 24/7, with 3 shifts of CAN's coming to take care of me. While some of the caregivers were exceptional, and some were of average ability, I can honestly say that I felt safe at all times and knew that if there was anything I needed, I would be taken care of. The administrative team was fantastic! Prior to each shift, they sent an email or text to let me know which caregiver would be covering the next shift, (i.e: by 8 PM I might receive a text message letting me know that caregiver A would be taking my 8:00 AM-4:00 PM shift, Caretaker B would take the shift from 4:00 PM-8:00 PM, and Caretaker C would be taking 8:00 PM-8:00 AM). The company can also provide a live in provider if one wishes. Each administrator was very kind, very patient, very helpful and very communicative. I am grateful to each and every one of them! Although my insurance, (private non-Medicare or Medicaid), would not approve of this service for me, I found the price reasonable considering all that I would need from the people coming in to take care of me. Caretakers take care of any number of activities while they are with you, such as light housework, (dishes after eating, sweeping or mopping a mess made by a client/patient, doing a load of laundry, if need be, and making beds. My CAN's helped coach me through home exercises from my knee replacement and through walking laps in my own home. One special mention of note: On Monday, my Caregiver was helping me prepare for a doctor's appointment when my heart went into serious arrythmia. Care with Love's Registered Nurse Laura, advised us to call an ambulance and go to the hospital. My caregiver not only followed the ambulance to the hospital but remained with me until her shift was over. The next day, she arrived promptly at the beginning of her shift despite the fact that I was still in the hospital. She did so the next day as well, remaining from start to finish of her shift, and fussing over me like a mother hen!!! I am home again, and able to take care of myself. I will greatly miss my caregivers. Care With Love helped me through the most difficult time I've ever had as an adult. I am so grateful for their help~ Would I recommend them?? YES! Emphatically! Would I use them in the future if needed? Absolutely!!! Should YOU pick up the phone and call Care with Love?? You BET!

5 Stars - Exceptional Care and Compassion…read more We've been with Mint Home Care for over a year now, and they have been absolutely amazing in providing care for both my mom and dad at different times. From day one, their caregivers, staff, and administrative team have felt like family. They've been accommodating, flexible, and incredibly supportive--especially during what can be such a stressful time when you're trying to care for your loved ones. What stood out most to us is how deeply they care. The team often went above and beyond, even visiting my parents at home or in rehab facilities just to check in on them. It's rare to find an organization that combines professionalism with genuine compassion, but Mint does exactly that. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is looking for care for a loved one. We trust them 100% and truly feel they've become an essential and cherished part of our family.

She bathed him, took him for walks, ironed his clothes, made his bed, arranged for his food and had great conversation with him.
