Our family lost our mother in March of 2019. She was an amazing woman who never let anything rise…read moreabove her top priority of caring for her family, especially my father, Bill. My father is a disabled veteran with crippling arthritis and knee problems and a multitude of health issues and needs. He is a diabetic that requires insulin, has lymphedema that requires daily treatments, needs medications four times per day and after a two serious falls, required someone to be with him while he transferred from chair to walker, walker to bed, etc. My father was from a generation where his wife cooked, cleaned, raised us at home, gave us baths at night, did the laundry, went shopping and had dinner on the table when he got home from work. As we grew up and moved on, my father grew older and his world became smaller as his ailments and medical needs became his focus. My mother took care of him with tireless effort, literally, up to the moment that she died. When she passed, he was lost. With our family spread across the globe (literally) and having families of our own, caring for my father was an impossibility given the degree of care that he requires. We were referred to Visiting Angels who came to meet and evaluate my father and had him set up with care givers within a week. It was an adjustment for my father going from a doting wife who cared for his every emotional and physical need to have caregivers who he did not know come to his home to cook and care for him, but he adjusted and accepted that this was his new reality. We watched this unfold and took great comfort in knowing he was receiving the care that he needed. There were some bumps along the way, which I sheepishly have to admit were caused mostly by my father's attempts trying to alter a situation to get his way instead of what was safe and necessary. These situations were mitigated with great communication between my family, my dad and from Visiting Angels and resolved. Over the last year, his mobility has declined. He went from requiring 12 hours a day of care to 24 hour care after falling in his bedroom at night while alone. He injured his shoulder, but Visiting Angels was even able to provide a care giver for several hours at night during the week while he was in his rehab center for companionship. When we realized we needed 24 hour care, Visiting Angels amazed us with their ability to provide a live-in care giver. This allowed my father to fall into a daily routine with the same person (something extremely important to him). He found it very comforting to get to know someone who also got to know him. Unfortunately this scenario ended yesterday as my father, regrettably, has reached the point that he requires multiple people to transfer him which would put any single caregiver at risk so he has to be placed in a nursing home. We had to say goodbye to Kristin, his most recent and utterly amazing live-in care giver. She was sweet, caring, a wonderful cook and dedicated and was very much part of the family. If it weren't for Visiting Angels, my father would have probably ended up in a nursing home or an extended care facility immediately after his wife's death which would have been devastating as he would have had to say goodbye to her and to the life he had always known at home all at once. However, Visiting Angels provided the means for him to stay at home, provide amazing care which allowed him to continue his life as normally as possible. No one could ever replace my mom, but Visiting Angels gave us all peace of mind knowing they were providing the care we wanted to be able to provide my father on our own, but couldn't. Visiting Angels gave my father the ability to carry on with his life for over a a year in the comfort of his home. I highly recommend them.

The CEO uses the word "retard" in every sentence, no exaggeration. The office is a house & their education center is a freezing cold, unfinished basement. I took a CNA class that I paid 3,000 dollars for with them & it was the worst experience I've ever had in my life. The teacher of this class took at least an hour every night to rant and rave like a crazy person about completely unrelated topics, usually her political beliefs. She called students fat, made paying students cry, did not have any knowledge about the state exam which was the entire purpose of the class, and did not teach us anything. We came to a very open consensus as a class that we learned absolutely nothing and completely wasted our time. The teacher told us several times that she was fired from every job she'd ever been to. She said this like she was proud of it. She told us that she underwent NO training to teach this CNA course, never witnessed the state exam, and had no knowledge of it. She was retired for 3 years and every time a student had a question her response was "I dont know I havent been in the field in 3 years." I believe I should be refunded for the experience, but I know I wont be. This entire organization is a catastrophic mess. 0/10 would NOT recommend.

Compared to LVH, this is the best care you could receive in Scranton. 5 stars in Lackawanna county,…read moreprobably 3 if compared nationally. They took care of my mom which is more than I can say about Lehigh Valley Hospital in Dickson city. They completely dismissed and discounted my mother's complaints and sent her home with a broken bone in her spine.

The ER Dr. White was amazing and had wonderful bedside manner. He actually seemed to care, how incredible is that?! Nothing like getting a full explanation on the current care and future plan for helping my mother get out of the hospital and continue on in her golden years.

Labor day weekend came she did her Saturday shift we chatted and laughed through out the day. She reached out via txt on monday saying ill see you Tuesday and ill have your check. Tuesday morning 9/5/23 i woke up to see her txt saying she was having her brakes replaced (mind you this was an excuse used 1 month prior) i asked if she was coming n she said no. I asked if she was sending someone to cover she she said no.
