Everyone they sent was so kind, friendly and attentive. There were household chores and doctors appointments (some that were not close) that they had to help with and did it all with smiles. Apart from a few scheduling issues, everything ran smoothly. Again, many thanks to them.

We have been using TheKey (San Jose) for 24 hour care since October 2022. Aside from a couple of…read morereliable caregivers, we have had poor quality of care exacerbating an already stressful situation. There does not appear to be a matching process or vetting. There has not been alignment between caregivers, staffing manager, and care manager causing confusion, multiple miscommunications, poor continuity of care and additional stress. Calendars (if we get an updated one) are never accurate and there does not appear to be accountability for who is responsible for what. My family has had almost no peace of mind during this difficult time and I have spent countless hours managing problems with both caregivers and Keys leadership multiple times a week. Two night caregivers have slept through multiple call button rings, two caregivers have no showed, one caregiver walked around the house all night keeping everyone awake. After asking the care manager all this week to verify coverage for this weekend, another no show tonight - Christmas weekend. These are only a few examples of problems that have occurred in a short period of time. Why not fire The Keys? Easier said than done. While my parents have me advocating for them, it's sad to think about other vulnerable elderly folks that need support and are being taken advantage of by what appears to be incompetent leadership and a poor for profit business model. For the amount of money Keys charges, service should be seamless. Do better. You are certainly not helping older adults live well in their own homes or improving their quality of lives. We know that stress and lack of sleep exacerbate medical problems. Sadly, The Keys has succeeded in accomplishing this.

(Note: The 2 stars are for the 3 caregivers we eventually got to work with; the agency itself would…read moreget 0 stars.) Eight months ago I needed caregivers for my dad, who has dementia. Golden Age (GAC) was one of the agencies I called. After discussing our needs, I determined that the price for the amount of hours we'd need was going to be beyond our budget. I moved on to researching other resources. A few days later, a GAC rep contacted me and I explained that we were no longer interested. She offered a reduced price that was in our budget, and I decided to give them a try. A few days later, someone contacted me to tell me about the two caregivers that were scheduled to begin the following week. They sounded great, and we were all set . . . until the night before the first caregiver was supposed to begin when I got a call from GAC telling me that *both* of the scheduled caregivers were now unavailable. The GAC rep said she was already trying to find replacements. It was disappointing and frustrating to have to scramble for coverage for the 4 days that my dad wouldn't have a caregiver even though we'd had a start date locked down a week ago, but I chalked it up to "things happen." A couple of days later GAC's founder texted me to tell me he'd investigated the "total mishap" and apologize for "starting off on a hiccup." He told me about his background starting the company (he'd had a hard time finding quality, reliable caregivers for his grandmother) and how he "still personally [stays] involved because [he wants] to see things are done right" and that he would "personally be involved with the care of [my] dad on coordinating caregivers with [the] staffing team." He offered me a discount for the first month, said he was going to have GAC's case manager call me so that she could be my main point of contact, and said he'd spoken to the two reps and the case manager to "re-align better communication etc. for future placements." Later that day I got a call and texts from the case manager, who told me she'd "be watching things like a hawk. Be sure your dad is well taken care of." I felt reassured that that first "mishap" was just that. The 2 new caregivers started a few days later (and a third rotated in a couple of weeks later), and they were great. However, within less than a month, 1 of them "resigned" after her shift one night with no notice, and GAC didn't tell us until the day after, only because I called them when my dad told me the caregiver hadn't shown up and I couldn't get in touch with her. Less than a week later, the other caregiver didn't show up for her shift and I called GAC to report this and was told that she too had "quit" and that "we don't know what happened to these girls really," but that I had already been told that we wouldn't have a replacement until 3 days later. (Nobody had told me anything.) I texted GAC's founder about this since he'd been so outspoken and intentional about letting me know he'd be on top of things and seemed so committed to making sure things went well. I never heard from him. I told the GAC rep not to bother getting a replacement and that we were done working with them. The rep kept insisting on trying to have another rep call me and trying to schedule someone else. I just wanted them to leave us alone. The experience was awful, GAC had again forced me to scramble to find care for my dad on short notice and left us with no caregivers--so I was done with GAC. Since then (8 months ago), a GAC rep has called or texted me at least once every 2-3 months to ask me if I'm still looking for caregivers. It's always clear that they have no documentation of my case, and I always tell them I'll never work with GAC again nor refer GAC to others and to please remove me from their contact list. Each time, they tell me they will. Two weeks ago I got another text, and asked them to remove me from their list. I was told that I would be put on their do-not-call list. Nope! I just got off of yet another prospecting call from them. So, along with the unreliable, dishonest service and terrible communication, they're relentless telemarketers who can't be bothered to remember former customers' poor experiences or respect requests to not contact them again.
