(Sorry to break your 5-star streak, Sylvie!) The cost is reasonable, and the shift hours are more flexible than other home help agencies. Sylvie was always responsive to any question or concern. When I contacted her with an urgent need for 24-hour care on short notice, she made a herculean effort to fill all the time slots, and came through for us. The agency seems to be highly selective in the caregivers they choose. Not only were the helpers generally more experienced than one finds in other agencies, they also appeared to be well-trained, resourceful, and highly intelligent. My mother has a long history of hostility toward home caregivers, and she did not like all of these caregivers either (although she did click with one of them, and there were a few others she probably could have come to like, given more time). However, I found all of them extremely kind, competent, and capable. My only issue was that some of them did leave a bit of a mess behind and disturbed my mom's impeccable arrangements of linens and other belongings somewhat. A minor matter, and partly my fault, for not leaving better instructions on how to find what they needed. Highly recommended.

Like…read moremany people, I was new to navigating the complex and ever-changing needs of an aging parent, and Siobhan was an invaluable guide every step of the way. She consistently provided support with kindness, wisdom, genuine care, and a high level of professionalism. Her guidance and advocacy made an overwhelming process feel manageable, and we are incredibly grateful for her help. We truly don't know what we would have done without her. I also recommend Kiara D., our assigned caregiver at Lincolnwood Place. Like many families, we were new to navigating the complex and constantly evolving needs of an aging parent. We truly needed someone onsite who could take ownership of my mom's care and clearly communicate with us about what was happening and what was needed. Kiara has been an absolute lifesaver for both my mom and our family. She consistently shows genuine compassion, attentiveness, and a strong sense of responsibility in everything she does. Every day, she goes above and beyond, and she is truly a pleasure to work with. When Kiara began caring for my mom--who was 100 years old at the time--she was nearly bedridden and not doing well. Thanks to Kiara's steady, kind, and dedicated care, my mom is now back on a positive path. She is up, walking every day, and receiving excellent care. I cannot say enough good things about Kiara. She has my highest recommendation.

Lincoln Park Family Care (LPFC) has been a wonderful provider for my mom who has moderate…read moreAlzheimer's Disease and lives in a continuing care retirement community (CCRC). Many CCRCs, no matter how upscale they are, are understaffed and are not designed for people with mild to moderate dementia. They offer three categories of care (independent living, assisted living, and memory care) when, in my opinion, there should be at least six categories. They market themselves as providing all of the services an aging person will need, but that's not really the case. Our elders are healthier than in the past and as a result, more of them are going to age into dementia. It's a looming crisis in elder care. In my opinion, CCRCs need to evolve. Until they do, people who can afford CCRCs may have to hire private care or their loved one may suffer alone and be heavily sedated. My mom is young (72), physically healthy and active, which presents challenges because she is also unable to make rational decisions. She does not understand that she has dementia and is proud and independently minded, so assisting her with activities of daily living can also be very challenging. Jeff and Ausra, the owners, have gone above and beyond in providing not only compassionate care for my mom, but support for me via many meetings and phone calls. Before working with them we had another caregiving provider and experienced turnover and last-minute sick call-outs, resulting in substitute caregivers my mom did not know. The only time I got a phone call was when there was a problem. This is not how LPFC operates at all. I get frequent updates from them, and we also talk to share ideas, discuss challenges, and also share positive experiences. LPFC takes a very hands-on approach and they are clearly driven by empathy and an earnest desire to make my mom's life as fulfilling as possible. A lot of thought has gone into the caregivers they have matched with my mom. Retirement communities can be challenging environments for private caregivers to navigate, and LPFC has also been consistently patient, honest and proactive in communicating with the retirement community and being patient with the challenges. The chord running through all of what LPFC does is to provide my mom with the best care based on her unique needs. I have heeded their frank and constructive advice many times, and their insights have given me a better understanding of how to approach my mom's behaviors and needs as we navigate this challenging and tragic journey. I highly recommend LPFC. I feel very lucky we found them.

I engaged Lincoln Park Family Care (LPFC) in the midst of the pandemic no less, after my mother…read morefinished with her skilled nursing stint after a fall, and was released to her Independent Living apartment in an upscale senior center in Evanston that in theory provides all levels of care. However, my mother's return to the apartment was conditioned on employing assistance for her. As I manage my mother's affairs from across the country, this was a challenge as her senior center did not have anyone on their "list" that provided the kind of care my mother needed - daily check in and assistance with medication. My mother is intensely private and independent, and so the alternatives of half day "companionship" were not a good match, even though she suffers from dementia. Fortunately, Lincoln Park and Jeff and his wife Ausra were recommended by a former caregiver (since retired) I had employed for my stepfather several years ago. The team at Lincoln Park stepped in immediately with aplomb. They worked diligently to win my mother's confidence and trust - this is not an easy task. They provided me with reports on her progress and advocated on her behalf with the staff at her community. They made themselves available by phone 24/7 for when she got confused on things like her medication instructions. All of this was made even more challenging with the pandemic which forced my mother to spend all of her days locked-up in her apartment. Jeff obviously has a wealth of knowledge and experience working with dementia patients. One of the things it is especially hard to do, especially from afar, is evaluating the on the ground experience vs. the told experience of someone in mental decline who is fighting very hard to "keep with-it." Jeff very deftly and respectfully laid out the evolving situation as we all threaded our way through a very difficult time as my mother navigated her challenges amidst the changing COVID world. Ausra provided a very caring presence, especially with female support, and stepping in to take care of small shopping requests. Jeff and Ausra work as a very good team, and have other skilled caregivers when they are not on point. I can't say enough for the quality of care they have given to my mother and at the same time the assistance they provided me in understanding the situation in my role as remote caregiver. They have also been good eyes and ears on the ground, helping me stay attuned to the changing dynamics of the Center necessitated by COVID. I highly recommend Lincoln Park Family Care.
