Constant cancelations when important transportation to doctor's appointments have been set up far in advance and then canceled. Some days there is "NO ONE Available" for regular appointments. And they can't seem to get their bill paying straightened out. They "forget to send bills." I am fed up with their decline in service! They lost many good employees when they changed, on extremely short notice, to create more profit for themselves. They lost many good employees, and have not been able to replace them. Stay away from this "Service." Many times there is no one available to answer the phones, even in an emergency. It just rings and rings. There is no way to leave a message. They are not fulfilling the services that they promise! Margaret C.

Care From the Heart truly lives up to its name. This is not just a caregiving agency -- it's a…read morelifeline. Jackie, who runs the agency, is one of the most caring and compassionate people I've ever met. She goes above and beyond in every possible way to make sure her clients (and their families) are supported. Navigating the medical system for my mom has been confusing and overwhelming, but Jackie has been there every step of the way -- explaining things, coordinating care, and making sure my mom gets exactly what she needs. She's even taken my mom to appointments herself, and when my mom had to go to the ER, Jackie stayed with her for hours until she was admitted, ensuring she was never alone. Jackie also attended care meetings at the skilled nursing facility and helped us find an excellent assisted living home when my mom was ready to make that transition. I honestly don't know what I would have done without her. If you're looking for a caregiving agency that treats your loved one like family, Care From the Heart is it. Jackie has been my guardian angel more than once, and I can't recommend her highly enough.

I recently had the pleasure of hearing Corey Kaczmarek from Heartfelt Home Care speak to my group…read moreabout the services that his company provides. I was especially impressed that Corey was drawn to starting Heartfelt Home Care to provide loving care for senior (and others in need, such as someone healing from a surgery) similar to what a family member would provide, rather than the money driven industry health care has become. Heartfelt carefully matches trained care providers with the clients to help assure a good match. This individualized care can often make the difference that allows for a person to remain in their home rather than a care facility. If either I or a family member needs care in the future, I will definitely call Heartfelt Home Care!

Every Safe at Home worker that sat with my mother was caring and professional. Sometimes our schedule would change unexpectedly, and Safe at Home was very accommodating about adding or subtracting shifts, or working oddly-timed shifts. I have nothing but positive comments to say about their professionalism and service. It was a "crisis" time for us, and it's great to know that there are such wonderful people at this company, able to step in and provide the ongoing assistance for our loved one that we ourselves could not provide. Thank you, Safe at Home, for all that you did for us.

After terminating our relationship with them, we contracted with TbA and what a difference. They provided caring and dedicated caregivers who really reached out to make our 92 year old father feel very comfortable and safe. Both women were very kind, considerate and truly made a bond with him, making the few months he had before he passed as trouble free as possible. Caregivers showed up when scheduled and provided all the services one would expect from a professional organization. Compassionate and caring, I just wish I would have hired them from the beginning. Do yourself a favor and start with them.

We had an outstanding experience with Family Matters, and I wanted to share this review because…read morethis is what exemplary care should look like. My 75-year-old mother underwent necessary brain surgery three weeks ago. Three days before surgery, she had a ground-level fall, tore her rotator cuff, and sustained a small fracture. Because the surgery could not be deferred, she proceeded as planned but required significant care at home afterward. She had been fully independent, and although she lives with my father, the caregiving needs were beyond his comfort level. I was able to help for a few days after her discharge, but it was clear they would need additional support for her to remain safely at home. The hospital nurses were wonderful, but my mom needed assistance even with basic tasks like repositioning in bed and using the restroom, as her left arm was immobilized. Our hospital care coordinator connected us with Amy, the client care manager for Family Matters, who met us at home right away. She performed a thorough evaluation and took the time to understand my parents' needs and preferences. Almost immediately, we were connected with KJ, the Director of Operations, who coordinated the caregiving schedule. She ensured an excellent match with caregivers and that coverage was consistent and reliable. Communication was seamless--KJ was always responsive and proactive with updates, and we never felt out of touch. My mom especially wanted to recognize her primary daytime caregiver, Maria. Maria was attentive, warm, and incredibly experienced, with over 20 years in caregiving. She is also an excellent cook and was especially skilled in helping my mom with more vulnerable tasks like showering. The other caregivers who supported nights and weekends were also wonderful. The team clearly put thought and care into matching personalities and backgrounds, which made a meaningful difference. Over the following weeks, my mom gradually regained her independence, and we were able to scale back care smoothly. The team made adjustments easy and seamless. We would absolutely use Family Matters again. This was our first experience with a caregiving service, and we were initially apprehensive, but they made the entire process easy, supportive, and reassuring. We would use them again in a heartbeat.

Even more challenging is finding caregivers you can truly trust during such a vulnerable stage of life. A very special thank you to Family Matters, and my father's caregiver, Sade. He is under hospice care with advanced dementia, and can barely speak. Sade is consistently patient, and kind, and gives me complete peace of mind whenever she's caring for him. Most importantly, she engages with him and makes him feel seen. This is in sharp contrast to other caregivers we've experienced who are often on their phones and treat him as if he's invisible. I'm also especially grateful for KJ who manages the caregivers and scheduling. While other agencies haven't taken the time to meet my father or me in person, KJ made it a priority to get hands-on training to fully understand my father's caregiving needs. Because of this, she's been able to step in to provide training and support which is a huge godsend given my limited bandwidth. She even proactively revised the caregiving shift note template to make it clearer and more helpful for our caregiving team. Family Matters has truly exceeded our expectations because they understand the real meaning of caregiving. On top of that, their participation in the Veterans Assistance Program, which requires stricter qualifications provides an added layer of confidence and experience.
