The doctor I saw was extremely rude and passive aggressive saying things like "You should feel lucky I let you stay there" to my boyfriend who was in the room with me. I had informed her I have a hard time with needles and she proceeded to pierce into my hand for the test causing it to be in immense pain. It still hurts and I feel she may have pierced into the wrong spot in my hand. Then at the end of it all she tells me that she mainly works as a headache specialist and does "this stuff" (nerve work) on the side. The only plus side from my visit was the people at the front desk were very pleasant and kind to everyone but other than that the rest of my visit to the neurological institute of this hospital was a mess.

I have used Synergy since last fall when I sustained two broken ankles followed by a pulmonary embolism which brought my life to a a stand still. I had some heart issues in May and was in the Hospital most of May. My ability to drive is very limited as is my mobility. If it were not for Synergy I would be in a nursing home or other in-patient care facility rather than my home. I am really grateful that these nice folks are around to help me! They all make me feel that they are not just care givers but members of my family who love me enough to come and help me out.While they help me through my limitations, they never make me feel that my life is restricted by my limitations. I can not emphasize too strongly how important this is. The folks that operate this agency of Synergy are great. They are always available! I have had to call at odd times and have always gotten in touch with some one who can address my concern.They have provided services for me on very short notice when problems have arisen.

If you're seeking someone to look after your loved one, I promise you'll have better results…read moreseeking someone who has the experience, ethics and good standing independently. There's plenty of options available by researching independent caregivers that way. Home Instead will be a waste of your time. Not because their caregivers are overall bad (who are called "care professionals"), nearly all of them that I've experienced have been lovely humans. It is because Home Instead takes negative advantage of those whom they hire. They hire a good amount of lovely individuals (caregivers) to make their company look good and to increase their profits. The caregivers receive, mostly, a little over ten hours of initial training, are expected to cough up money (and carve out time on their own) for their fingerprinting to be checked by the government, CPR certification, and other tasks deemed mandatory by Home Instead. The pay is laughable, barely above minimum wage and they claim it is "against company policy" to discuss one's pay with other employees (it is indeed LEGAL and just fine to discuss income matters with fellow employees). If that's not a red flag, I don't know what is. The hiring managers and trainers claim they're flexible with the caregivers and can match their unique capabilities with clients in their roster. What they ultimately desire are employees who do not seek "who/what/where/when/why/how" (at all). Not allowed. Only salute and do as you're told, never be curious, Heaven forbid anyone seek clarification and for Pete's sake never share your opinion. You'll be the recipient of pettiness that rivals immature teenagers who bully others due to lack of confidence and a large amount of power hungry desires.

I'm in the process of considering where to put my grandmother, who doesn't want to leave her small town in Iowa, which breaks my heart. The Rose Blumkin Jewish Home was incredible when I visited. They have thought through all the details. For example, all the residents' doors are painted different colors and have unique lights outside the door. If you've ever gotten lost walking up and down the halls of a nursing home, where every door and every wall looks the same, you can imagine how hard it must be for a person with dementia to find her or her room. They also have multiple dinning room options, so people feel like they have more choice in their life. Plus, the Jewish Academy is on the same campus, so the preschool children are always coming over to the Home and providing a little cheer for the elderly adults. I wish I had an option like this in Nevada, Iowa!
