She called me in less than 5 minutes after I filled out the online request. My family had just gone through an unimaginable tragedy with the sudden death of 3 immediate family members in a terrible accident and we urgently needed a caregiver for my mother who just lost 3 of her children. SUE spent at least an hour on the phone with me, just out of pure kindness and sympathy, even though she knew she did not have someone who could come in our area immediately to care for my mom. She promised me, however, that she would work very hard to find the right person as soon as possible and even if she was not able to do so, she would keep calling me frequently to keep me posted and to check on my and my mother's well-being. I never in a million years expected that kind of amazing service. I'm sure that was not in her job description. There are still WONDERFUL people in this world and Sue is one of them. I hope her bosses see this and give her a big fat raise and a promotion. From a very greatful client, who needed a friend that day! Tirzah

The Care given by wonderful people at Homewell is Top Notch!…read more We used their services for closed to 4 years and it was a true blessing to have them in our lives. The care givers are friendly and helpful, they become almost like a family member they care so much. Management couldn't get better, the always listened and reacted to every concern we might have had immediately. Always kept in touch to make sure all needs were being met and that the client was happy with care. They would even come to make home visits to just sit and chat and give them a chance to talk one on one. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!!!!!!!! Hope to never need this kind of care again , but if I do Homewell is first on my list. THANK YOU HOMEWELL!

Missed a lot of work because the caregiver decided she doesn't want to go to work. They're not committed to the people that hire them for services. The caregivers couldn't get my mom to shower or changed. We were told they are experienced with people with alzheimers. Went through multiple caregivers because the lack of consistency of care. Even one of the caregivers was caught snooping around our house. I showed the management the videos of the caregiver snooping around the rooms where she wasn't allowed. The answer he gave me was maybe she was investigating a sound. Then they told me she does well with 4 or 5 other clients so there isn't anything they can do to punish the caregiver. So they basically said because she does well with other clients she gets a free pass for what she did at our house. When you pay for someone for services they are supposed to work for you on the terms you agree. Caregivers wanting to make up own schedules to work to fit them instead of customers needs.

I hired this agency to help me find a caregiver for my Dad who has Alzheimer's. I live out of…read morestate and was the one paying the bill, but they refused to share the contact information of the caregiver with me, citing that it was their policy. Obviously because of his diagnosis, he had trouble remembering the caregiver's schedule/suggesting tasks for her, etc. He told me the caregiver was also not allowed to drive him to appointments because she "felt uncomfortable with someone else in her car." Finally I wrote to the agency saying I would not be using them (Home Instead is much more transparent/ethical). However, this agency allowed my DAD to hire them directly, knowing his diagnosis, and continues to charge him for the caregiver. I can't speak to the actual quality of his caregiver, who seems young and very nice (but apparently told my dad she "needs the money" so he continues to use her despite aforementioned limitations). Be very wary using them for your loved ones!

Today, Paula guided my Dad through a crisis that would have been terrifying without her by his side. She was a calm, comforting, knowledgeable presence- keeping us informed at every step.
