It was good for the week they were with him, except for the last day when we tried to redirect him. The caregivers didn't know what they were doing. Make sure the person they are matching with patients are on the same level of needs. Some of them weren't clear on what to do and how to interact with him. The skills and understanding varied a lot between caregivers.

It depends on the person who comes because we have had good people in the last few weeks. We are only using the services on weekends, and I asked if the same person could come. Some of the people coming are too young and want to do their homework when they are here. We told the agency my wife needs someone more skillful because she has advanced Parkinson's.

They did a few things extra that I didn't expect them to do, like unloading the dishwasher and cleaning up.

All of the people were very good, they were on time and didn't leave early, were very polite, and took care of her very well. It was very expensive, but it was well worth it.

They are here to help me during the evenings when I'm alone and cannot get my husband into bed myself. They make that possible because I cannot do it myself.

She uses the service for companionship, and they play games and watch TV. My loved one actually has recommended them to someone. We like the people they have sent.

My caregiver was there the last time for my dad, and I don't think I have ever met a kinder, more impressionable man ever. I was very impressed with him, and even more impressed the second time I met him. From the time that the request was made, it was a very quick turnaround time. I called and said that we needed someone, and they got it the same. I was very impressed that each time I called when we needed someone, they were able to send someone out in for a few hours, which was a great relief.

It takes the worry off of my plate. If there's an issue, or I can't reach my mom but know the nurses are there, I can call. They can get a message to my mom, or they can get a message to me. I like their availability to work with our ever-changing schedule, especially on short notice.

There needs to be more consistency with the same caregivers, so he knows what to expect. We had several times that they didn't show up on time or they brought him back late with no explanation. They were supposed to set up recurring appointments for me and they have yet to do it, even though I have requested it three times.

We couldn't have had my mom stay at home without their continuous care. There were a couple of times when there were lapses in coverage. One aide wouldn't show up and BrightStar wouldn't know. I'd call and they'd fix it, but it was definitely frustrating when there's not continuity of care.

He didn't want the help and my father dismissed the caregivers twice. For us, we knew he could not be alone in his condo. We have called the agency on 3 or 4 occasions on very short notice and they have always been able to come up with someone.

When I have concerns about the care, I feel like I never get good responses about the care. We never know who is coming into my father's home, and he is an older gentlemen and he should not be opening the door to people that he doesn't know. The caregivers sit down and eat all day, and they mess with the amount of care that they give my father. He has to clean the messes that they make. We had two caregivers though that are really good. The others, we have issues with.

BrightStar Care is kind of hit or miss with some of the nurses. We found one gem, a few average, and one or two stinkers. Overall, the nurse coming in and taking care of my loved one has been very helpful. There were several that I had to train with the specifics of my dad's case.

I would hesitate to recommend BrightStar Care because of their chain of command, and if I have a problem, it's like calling the government to have them fix something. They're not too readily available. BrightStar Care needs to communicate a little better as to what's expected from us and what's expected from the caregiver. The caregivers are coming to me, instead of the agency, with their problems.

From my personal experience with BrightStar Care, we haven't had any issue other than trying to figure out if a caregiver is coming or not. The communication can sometimes be an issue, but that's it. Their staff is great, and they are usually spot on to help us out when we need assistance. The services from BrightStar Care have made life easier for me because there is someone here to help me with my mother. The caregiver is like family to my mom and can get to her in a way that I can't. She won't listen to me, but she will listen to the caregiver. They have had a huge impact and have helped with PT as well.
