Dr. Maxwell is a great dentist, recommended by a friend. I was going to another dentist, a fine…read moreperson, but she was unable to fix a bridge where the base tooth in the back had failed, without further gum surgery--a slight hazard in my case. He actually had hired Trish, an excellent hygienist who had worked at one of my previous dentists, who had retired. I thought one of that dentist's tricks on one tooth could work again on two adjacent teeth. It was experimental, but Dr. Maxwell thought of a way to proceed that would not cost that much, but test the idea. He did it differently (by accident!), but it worked and I still have that bridge six or seven years later! Great staff, friendly wife who works the front desk sometimes. His skills are exceptional, for example, the little strips of paper he uses, he often only needs one, one time or two, and gets the right fit. Of all my dentists throughout life, he is surely the best by skill, knowledge, and personality!

Riviera Assisted Living was alarming as Mom lived in assisted lived there for a year. Hind site has…read morebrought us clarity of the distinction of the facility. We thought at the time things were ok, always framed from staff like mom was doing well and engaged, until we moved her to find out more. Even being in and out it wasn't enough to protect mom. Come to find out that mom told staff how frighten she was with nursing care, today I come to find out these concerns went unnoticed/ignored or un-responded to by the chain of command. Staff took mom to color daily at a table that was Pretty much the extent of the services that this facility offered my 95-year-old Mom. Always making us feel like she was doing well and ok. As if this isn't enough, we left on terrible Circumstances after a hurricane impacted our area in the Holly Hill Facility. Riviera Assisted Living evacuated with no plan, how can you not have a plan as an ALF? Some staff insiders admitted there was no plan and if it were not for the directors previous employment in Winter Park, they would have had nowhere to evacuate. I asked for the plan from the Director via email and it was never shared. Since this incident We contacted a vice president at five star, We contacted local area managers and no one takes time to return a phone call or hear a concern. We were given 1 business day to decide to relocate mom after the facility notified us that she could not return due to damages in the building, who does this? My mother was returned in a condition worse than she was evacuated by the ALF prior to evacuation, she's regressed physically that has previously healed. She spent nights on a cot when she was evacuated to a non 5star facility. When I greeted mom she had tears in her eyes and was crying from the evacuation. Correspondence/email to the director go unanswered. There was water damage on mom's personal belongings again no confirmation. SOME of the staff-sing the directors praises, due to wanting job security, yet we have another side to tell. A full investigation and revocation of the ALF licensure should be considered immediately. This is not a safe place with caring, compassionate people that are there to serve the elderly at a premium fee. If I could give no stars I would. Pm me for more info.

Every person I have met is kind and caring from the maintenance staff, housekeeping and dining services. The activities are fun and engaging and the meals and dining room are top notch. The apartments are spacious and well appointed and I love that it's all inclusive, from cable, meals, activities, utilities and transportation.

As an out of town family member, I needed someone to take care of my elderly mother who was…read moredischarged from the ER after a fall and was returning home to live alone. Prior to her fall she was completely independent. I needed to find someone that could assist her in her home with everyday activities as she was unable to do very much for herself while recovering from the fall. In Home Health Care was ordered by the physician but did not cover the Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) which are routine activities people do every day without assistance. There are six basic ADLs: eating, bathing, getting dressed, toileting, transferring, and continence. I was referred to BrightStar Care by a Social Services Case worker in the hospital. I reached out to BrightStar Care (Greater Volusia County Area of FL) to speak to someone and the Director of Operations, Masha, answered the phone and answered ALL of my questions, which were comprehensive, as I had need and experience in the past for other loved ones with these types of services. Masha arranged for her Director of Nursing, Noah, and Scheduler, Terah, to come to my mother's home and the four of us sat down together and discussed specifically what BrightStar Care could do for my mother and what our expectations of BrightStar Care were. My main concern was that I wanted to be sure that any caregivers assigned to assist my mother were not only competent but trustworthy! Masha does this type of in- home interview with her team members to determine the needs of the client as well as assess the client's physical and cognitive needs in order for Masha to best assist her, with feedback from Noah and Terah, to pair up what BrightStar Care hopes to be a good match up for both caregiver and client! Noah even went to the trouble to purchase, hand deliver and install on his own time, a hand-held shower attachment which he assured me would greatly benefit not only the assigned caregiver but my mother as well when she returned to independence! The next day, my mother was first introduced to Wendy and thoroughly enjoyed her! Because Wendy had a prior vacation planned that was to take place during the period of time my mother needed assistance, Masha assigned Katie to cover for Wendy while she was away. Katie came out on day two to assist my mom. Fortunately, I was present when Katie came to meet my mother and assist her with the plan of care that was implemented and reviewed by my mother, myself and Noah. Katie immediately began to take care of my mom like she was her own mother! What a lovely, caring spirit she displayed. I familiarized Katie with what needed to be done while my mother went to bed as she had been to her PCP that morning and was still in considerable pain. My mother's PCP ordered some x-rays for my mother and while I was with Katie and my mom, the PCP office called me later that morning and informed me that my mother needed to be taken directly to the ER again as the x-ray had revealed a life-threatening condition that required immediate intervention. I informed Katie that I was sorry and that I had to take my mom immediately to the ER. Katie, without hesitation, began to help me get my mother out of bed and into a wheelchair for transport. Katie continued to reassure my mother that everything was going to be okay! Katie ensured that should it become necessary, we collected adequate items for a possible overnight stay, for my mom. I felt so comfortable having just met Katie and seeing her caring nature and straight forward and considerate spirit, I asked Katie to remain in my mother's home and continue to do the cleaning, laundry and grocery storage we had previously discussed that needed to be done. Katie had already begun preparing a meal for my mother and stopped and cleaned up and bagged up in the freezer the remainder of the food products that needed storage. I told Katie to lock the door on her way out. Katie gave me her cell phone and asked me to keep her updated as to my mother's outcome. She was genuinely concerned for my mom. What a wonderful care giving spirit! My mother was admitted to the hospital and I no longer required the services of BrightStar Care as my mother was scheduled to discharge to a skilled nursing facility upon discharge for rehabilitation. I returned home to a cleaned up home! Even payment of the bill was simple. My mother had authorized any charges be applied to her credit card so even payment for services was effortless! I would HIGHLY recommend this company for care for a loved one should they need ADL assistance on an hourly, daily, weekly basis or even 24/7 care. They are very reasonably priced and provided superior care and services in the short time I interacted with both the team leaders and their caregivers! Thank you BrightStar Care!

However, I am so grateful for a specific Caregiver that provides us 8 hours of respite care per week, I am submitting this review now. Please note that my 5 Star Review is based solely on the integrity, abilities and performance of a specific person that is employed by Home-Instead. Leslie B. has uplifted our lives and demonstrated consistency. She is truly passionate about her position as a Caregiver. A little of our background... Last year, my adopted Pop, Mr. Bill, was hospitalized and in rehabilitation for several weeks prior to being released to come home. It has been my primary objective to see that he may remain home, for as long as possible, as long as his doctors and therapists feel he is safe, content and still able to experience some independence. So .... I scrambled to find a Caregiver(s) to assist us at home upon Mr. Bill's arrival on August 10, 2018. I have extensive background as a CNA in Rehabilitative Nursing. I am familiar with industry and what was needed immediately in our home. I am grateful for Leslie's dedication and flexibility as Mr. Bill is physically healthy with short-term memory challenges. She is intuitive and has made a positive impact on both of our lives.
