They helped me by just having someone else to help out, so I didn't have to do everything. I would recommend the more if they had more caregivers available that fit my dad's needs, and that were in our area. Also, if there were times they couldn't make it, we had trouble rescheduling.

A lot of times people will call out but there is not anybody to take over the shift and we have to scramble and take care of the shift. They could improve with more consistency of the same few people that come into the home.

The caregivers helped the most by being attentive to the client's needs. They tried to get her to eat and they helped by keeping the agency up on what was going on. They would then, in turn, let me know. I liked the caregiver that was there when the client passed. She was very attentive. She was not only there for her, but she helped me too because I was there by myself at the time. I think she was a God-send.

I don't know what I would do without her. I don't have to worry about the client while I am gone. She changes him in the morning. I like the fact that I have one person that takes the full number of hours that I need. We get 35 hours. I don't have to reorient someone all the time.

It was difficult when they didn't show up. When we hire somebody to do something they need to be able to do it. We didn't have a great experience. We wanted them to show up when they said they would. I would get a call sometimes the morning of to be told we weren't getting services that day.

I needed them because he has to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. He was falling and those at Austin Park could not watch him for eight hours a day, so that is why I called and got help. It has been hard because of the COVID-19, they have not been able to get somebody in there every time, and that is really not their fault.

Some of the caregivers were great, and some weren't. A lot of the caregivers were on their cellphones a lot. Even playing games, instead of interacting with her. There were some that even said they weren't supposed to be doing housework, but were only there for personal care. Some of them really didn't know how to be social. Something very important to my aunt is socialization and some weren't good with that. One of the issues is the staff changing a lot. There are so many different people coming and going, so it's not a consistent staff.

He is helping a lot, but he is using his I Pod a lot also. He doesn't do anything else besides sit down and use his I Pod. When he does something, he does it really fast. Like if he is washing the floors, he will only do the middle and miss the corners. The reason is because if someone doesn't come to the house, I have to call to see if someone is coming or not.They don't call to let us know someone can't come, and they don't have someone else to come out if I need them.
