From the initial consultation through the placement of a caretaker, Home Instead has been professional, courteous, informative, flexible, caring, and had a full and complete understanding of the situation. The initial evaluation was thorough and dignified. The fees are competitive within the industry. However, the quality of the caregivers are FAR SUPERIOR to what other agencies offer. The caregivers are well trained, ambitious, efficient, engaging and provide dignity to the clients. The billing department is efficient and courteous. I have used this agency on several occasions and would strongly recommend them. https://www.homeinstead.com/559

My father was in Mercy Hospital for almost two weeks when we recognized he was not going to make…read moreit. The Hospice at Mercy said he was not critical enough for their in-patient services, so we had the choice of Dad going back to his Assisted Living home or to a nursing home to die. Assisted Livings are a social model where people live who need daily assistance. Dad had been at the AL for 1 1/2 years at this point and it was his home. The hospital Hospice handed me a list of agencies that provide Home Health Aides for end-of-life work. The only option was to hire a third-party care agency to administer this kind of care 24/7 for as long as Dad lasted. After a maddening 2 days calling every agency on the list, THANK GOD I found Better Home. Right away, they were a cut above many of the agencies I talked to. The intake person was competent and thoughtful of my difficult circumstances and worked to guide me though several decisions. They also could provide experienced Aides within a couple of days as opposed to several agencies I called. Paying immediately before even discussing what was needed was the opening gambit from one agency I encountered! At the AL, we were so lucky to have the Better Home Aides who really knew their business. They were competent, caring, informative and experienced. Dying is hell and witnessing it is sobering. Dad lasted 1 1/2 weeks in Hospice and my brother and I were there participating in his care almost every day. The Aides welcomed our presence and educated us. They were respectful of our needs in letting go of our Dad. I am so grateful to BH for the massive assistance they provided. Especially, I want to mention and thank publicly Sonia, Victoria, Leonard, Delphine (overnight), the very kind intake nurse who came Day 1(cannot recall name), and everyone I dealt with in the office such as Karen and the Financial person (cannot recall name). Their competence across the board made such a difference during the maelstrom of dying. Dying at the AL had hidden costs. The Mercy Hospital Hospice Good Shepherd provided Medicare-covered Hospice Services such as having an RN (Jerry) very helpfully guiding us. GS also provided the bed, oxygen, and some supplies to get us started. They provide a mandated 13 months of bereavement services, also. The AL provided "Room and Board" (no board as Dad could no longer eat), cleaning, and did the massive amounts of laundry we had. They also lent an Aide here and there to assist turning Dad. Long term AL Aides who knew us came in to cheer Dad and us, but were not involved in the care at this point. The rest of the work and direction was provided by the Better Homes Aides I mentioned above. The 24/7 Aides were $32.50/hour, but that added up to approximately $5000 for the first week. The AL had already been paid for the month so this third-party care was additional. There was also lag time in getting needed supplies, so I had to go to a med supply store myself a few times. The hospital Hospice told me they would "pick up" 4 hours of care/day from agencies on that phone list that I was originally handed. That was eventually true, but I had to fight for that discount during the 1 1/2 weeks Dad was dying and I was at his bedside. I wholeheartedly recommend Better Home for many of the reasons stated above. There is cost involved but the competent help they provided was invaluable to our family.

If they cannot even get that part of their services right, I can't imagine how they help treat serious injuries. The office staff was completely unsympathetic to the fact that they had wasted my time and said it was the fault of an office manager who was not there. I am sure this happens all the time and they are just looking for people to get treatment without insurance. After reading the review below I am even more disgusted by these scam artists. They don't even take insurance and they don't even bother to tell you that when you call. Just bait and switch you and hope that you feel so embarrassed by the fact that they don't take "your insurance" that you will go ahead and pay for the session out-of-pocket or the treatments. Beware of this scam. Perhaps this sort of thing should be reported to the attorney general.
