I knew that my life was about to take a drastic change for the better, from the first day I…read morecontacted Francis, the owner of Sunshine Healthcare. I am a single, 49 year old woman, who has been battling complex health issues for over 15 years. Having moved back to Rockland County, alone and extremely ill, my needs seemed insurmountable. Struggling with years of chronic illness can result in friends and family leaving your life, out of frustration and fear. Being disabled and too young to qualify for help from the county or state, my needs fell thru the cracks. That first conversation with Sunshine, when I barely had the strength to ask for help, changed the course of the last two years of my life. Hearing the desperation and sickness in my voice, Sunshine sprung into action first, leaving the insurance bureaucracy for later. After contacting my physician, a nurse and aide were sent to my doorstep. I immediately received home treatments that saved me from weekly trips to the ER. I had someone to get me to my doctors, make sure there was food in my stomach and hope in my heart. I no longer felt alone and frightened for my life. With Sunshine's help, I got back the fight in my spirit that I needed to turn my health around. I became part of the Sunshine family, which was more valuable to me than words could ever express. Over a period of months, when insurance coverage was questionable, the owners of Sunshine tirelessly fought my company on a daily basis. They spent hours each day on my case and did not stop until finally coverage was reinstated. What an indescribable blessing in a world where time is money. I lay in a hospital bed, not knowing how I was going to exist at home, as they fought for me and won. The Sunshine team is truly concerned with the patients' welfare and and treat each patient individually. You can really be assured that you will get the best of care and respect from their staff. It is now two years later and I consider Sunshine to be a big part of my family. I still have the same wonderful, caring nurse checking on me and administering treatments as needed. It is because of their endless support that I have managed to stay out of the hospital as much as possible. I have not only thrived with their treatments and weekly monitoring, but I've also learned about the power of hope and humanity. I would not be where I am today, if I hadn't made that phone call that I will surely never forget. Thanks for your never ending support Sunshine! H.B. A very grateful woman in Bardonia, NY

I would highly recommend this agency to anyone in need of such services.

I waited a month after my mother's passing to write this review so I could have some distance and…read moreperspective from the events. I contracted with Alvita to care for my mother during the last two months of her life after she was injured in a fall. I paid for 24 hour home care seven days a week. Other than Fabienne, I found the caregivers sorely lacking in the most basic of qualities such as companionship and emotional support. Also, other than Fabienne, the one on one care for which they were hired (toileting, hygiene assistance, dressing, grooming, feeding, etc) was mostly delegated by them to the staff at the assisted living facility where my mother resided, which negated the whole point of hiring them in the first place. Chronic lateness was also the norm. Most arrived 10-20 minutes late for the start of the night shift The night shift crew was especially problematic. In addition to generally not performing the basic tasks for which they were hired ("it's not my job" was the common refrain, even though it literally was their job), they often did not even stay in the same room as my mother who was a fall risk. Some slept on the sofa in the living room during the night shift, some spent the night shift doing schoolwork in a separate room, and some spent hours of the night shift on their phone in the hallway outside of the apartment. The complaints became so numerous from the staff at the assisted living facility and from the hospice nurses that I eventually had to change agencies for the night shift. Three of the low points during the Alvita night shift require special mention. (1) There was the night that my mother sat in her own feces for the entirety of the night. When Hospice arrived in the morning, the waste was dry and hard and had been there all night, despite a 12 hour Alvita shift. (2) Many nights, my mother was put to bed at 7 PM for convenience sake without any social interaction or kindness on the part of the aide. (3) My mother suffered a skin tear on her arm the night after I complained about the aides sleeping on the job. I was told that she injured herself, but there are no witnesses other than the Alvita aide involved. On the opposite end of the spectrum is Fabienne. She was the primary Alvita daytime aide for my mother. Fabienne went above and beyond the call of duty. She exuded kindness and compassion. She took the utmost care of my mother and treated her with dignity and respect. When Fabienne was on the job, the staff at the assisted living facility and the hospice staff took a break because everyone knew that she had everything under control. This is the level of care advertised by Alvita and the level of care that I paid for, but only Fabienne met the mark. Not only did she meet expectations, but she blew everyone away with her level of care.
