There are no adequate words to describe the level and quality of help, compassion and competence shown by these professional angels. I am a skeptic by nature and trade (philos and psych prof at UCSB). I find absolutely no problem saying that Assisted's assistance is a marvel and blessing. It surely is part of what makes our community special. Thanks -- by the boat-load -- for Leslie, Esperanza, Ed and the many other always available professional Care-Givers on staff. What a marvelous way to be helped through a hideous life experience.

Home Helpers'/Lompoc services started out well but soon deteriorated. It is time-consuming to get…read moreready for a Home Helper visit. When they don't show up, it can ruin the flow of things in a household which includes someone who is ill. And it definitely is disruptive when home health professionals have also been scheduled. I was notified a couple of hours before the HH employee was due at our house that she would not be coming. The next day I was notified that she would be at least a half hour late. When she arrived she said she was late because Home Helpers/Lompoc did not allow her sufficient time to drive from one client's house in Oceano to our house in Arroyo Grande. Appropriate scheduling is Home Helpers' responsibility; not ours. Overbooking should not be the client's problem, but obviously it is. It was clear that Home Helpers feels that clients are being overly picky by complaining about missed appointments followed by tardiness.

When I entered, Case Manager Katherine Coats and RN Anna Bury were so welcoming and supportive of my trauma state. They made me feel understood and turned what could have been a horrific day into a day of hope. It wasn't their job. They didn't know me. I'm not a client. But if that's how they treat a complete stranger in crisis, then rhis is the right company for your loved ones. Thank you. Katherine and Anna and Brightstar Care!

I was applying for administrative support person at this company. They did a screening phone call…read morewith me, then said they would set up a Zoom. I had to follow up to make sure I got a Zoom link. They gave me the link on a Monday afternoon for a Tuesday morning interview. Without sending me an email or giving me a phone call to cancel, they just did not show up for the Zoom. They sent a message on Indeed that they had hired someone else. I have no issue with them hiring someone else. My issue is that they disregarded the time that I take to prepare for an interview. Then neglected to tell me that they had canceled it. Very rude and very unprofessional. If they do not believe my time is valuable as an interviewee, I doubt they would take my time seriously as an employee. I would also be skeptical that they care appropriately for a person needing their type of care. I would never use their services as caregivers. Public relations manifest in many ways.
