BrightStar Care Charleston Mount Pleasant, SC

Diane B_27

We needed a different kind of caregiver, the first ones we got were more like companions. They were very prompt.

Edward B

They have provided care takers that are good, I don't have to worry about. I like that they are responsive.

Susan B_66

In the beginning when I needed it, it significantly helped. It helped me get organized. It is so individual with the caregivers, it would be hard to make a generalize statement. I loved the communication.

Oliver E

They provided service my parents couldn't do on their own. They were easy and helped us right when we got home from the hospital.

Eric S_8

It worked well when they were there, but since they were so often not there, they had a negative impact. They need to improve scheduling, and their aides called in too much.

Michael L_28

The provider has helped me the most by giving me the accurate medication. I like that everything went smoothly and that they helped me talk with my pharmacy.

Anonymous_7408

Our one caregiver from the agency, Sheila, is good. They need to improve communication, and they over-promise and under-deliver. They need to be reliable.

Leanna R

They were comforting. I liked that they helped out with anything we needed.

Kathy F_18

The lady who came during the day would clean up the kitchen, do the laundry, and take it downstairs because my sister couldn't do the stairs. She helped her go for walks outside. They were very reliable.

Anonymous_7105

I use them for escort services. They're on time, courteous, and understand my needs.

Jens W

The agency was prompt and on time and I didn't have to worry about anything. I liked the agency because all the nurses were awesome.

Laura S_19

They were timely and considerate. They do their job and they're personable.

Lori B_10

They help me shower. The original communication between the nurse that came out and when they would come out was very different.

Rosie J

The sitters took very good care of my father-in-law. They are the only sitting services that we used before, and they are the only one that we have experience with.

Pamela88

I needed post surgery assistance on short notice last month. BrightStar quickly put together a plan which provided the requested assistance, and also allowed me the flexibility to extend if needed. The staff – – including the administrators and schedulers, the registered nurse, and the home care providers – – were first rate, courteous and responsive. I highly recommend this organization!

Teresa M_5

I have help and all the care would fall on me without them. The director is very responsive to anything that I need such as if I don't need the services one week, they will change it very quickly.

Mike N_6

It enables her to feel clean. She gets bathed three times a week. They are high quality and they are punctual.

Rachel S_7

I was a little concerned if the caregiver would be good so I was a little bit nervous but then she was excellent so because of the great service my daughter was in great hands. BrightStar did a personalized assessment of the client's needs and I felt that my concerns were listened to. The right person was chosen for our needs so it was an excellent service.

Hannah F_1

It provided us a vacation and a lot of peace of mind. I like the people, and the main caregiver we got was fantastic. They went above and beyond and were really helpful.

Beth M_10

They have helped me out the most by being there for my mom. The caregivers have alleviated my worry tremendously. I like that they are efficiently run and they are quick to respond. When I need help, I know it's there.

Mary R_50

They need to have the caregivers to come or tell us what is going on. For the nurse that comes is really good but the caregiver is a hit or miss.

Susan G_20

We didn't use them a ton, but they were good when we did use them. Everything was good, the only thing was that we have insurance where they weren't getting what they needed from BrightStar Care to get us reimbursed.

Shelly B_3

They made my experience positive by giving me a rest from taking care of the client. I like BrightStar Care because they have good caregivers.

Anonymous_5740

They help most by taking me to the doctor and getting me something to eat. I finally got a caregiver that I like. She works out well. The first two were horrible but I have now my caregiver is great. We are very compatible.

Anonymous_5385

I really like the caregiver. She is really super. I really like that they have done what they said they would do.

Melinda W_1

They have been very flexible and appreciate feedback and are willing to meet your needs. I like them because I feel like they are pretty reliable.

Tom B_18

They could give me the winning lottery tickets! They made it so I don't have to worry about the care of my wife. They could be a little better with their scheduling.

Lloyd B_2

I've only used them twice and they worked just fine for me. They were understanding of the person using the services. I have already recommended them. I like everything about them. They just meet my needs.

Rob R_2

The services have had a positive impact. They communicate and make sure I am aware of how my mom is doing each and every day. They were able to find a caregiver that is a good fit for my mom which I really like.

Cecelia C_1

I need someine with me all the time. Best agency here.

Jeep W

They could have had better communication. One thing I would tell a friend about the services is the professionalism.

Barbara C_46

They helped with wound care. They are professional across the board.

Adriane S

I am able to go away with my family. I would recommend them because they did what they said they were going to do.

Larry W_5

I left them after almost 3 years because I could no longer depend on them. They have staffing problems and I couldn't depend on them.

Joe S_12

They have helped her the most by being accommodating to us. I would tell a friend that they are very flexible.

Anonymous_4597

They relive me so that I can run out and run errands while they are here. It gives me respite. I have had a billing issue with them recently that did not get resolved.

Anonymous_4525

They help him do the tasks that he can't do himself. I like that they do a great job taking care of my dad and they respect him.

Jeffrey L_1

It is nice to have a break. I needed more hours and they made it happen.

Kathy H_13

It helps me to know Bonnie is getting cleaned. They seem to do a good job and help Bonnie with her baths.

Liz C_6

He couldn't have stayed there without. They seemed to be very caring of him and kept him comfortable.

Indya B

When I had to leave my mom, it was my first time leaving her and I knew that I could trust the people I was leaving her with. When I was looking at agencies, they got back to me right away and everything worked out smoothly.

Janet T_6

We had one specific aide that we requested, and she kept showing up so she could build a relationship with her. I like how they are good at dealing with the client.

Charles K_4

They were understanding and showed up on time. They were very efficient and professional.

Dianne M_5

It is just that they give me peace of mind to know someone is here with my mother when I am not here and they give her company. There have been times when they call me to say someone is not going to make it and then they do not have any replacements. That is a hard situation to be in because then I have to cancel my appointments.

Lorie F

They get along well together. I like the ladies that are here. The caregiver I have now is the best.

Mary F_20

I'm using them really for their drive service. I like that they are very nice and helpful.

Richard D_9

They only cared about raking in the money and paying their caregivers only $10. That is pathetic. The caregivers were pretty good most of the time. It seems like their priorities aren't really in taking care of people. We had a problem with a caregiver and they didn't call us to say sorry for what happened. It was completely swept under the rug. The business model is pathetic. They try to get the cheapest help for their company. And you get what you pay for. Eventually I spoke to the owner about it.

Lorraine F_3

The most helpful thing has been the caregiver. She has been very helpful. I like that they stay on top of everything and are willing to answer any questions when it comes to the services.

Joe C_11

It helps me a lot so I don't have to always help her up. I like the people who come over, they seem quite knowledgeable.

Stacy _1

I like how they are there to help with his catheter. They are responsive and keep me updated with things about my dad. We needed care for my dad, my dad has the coverage for long term care and I like how there is someone helping.

Van M_1

Show up on time and follow through on medications instead of going to sleep. Improve with people showing up at all and on time. One person went to sleep.

Anonymous_3087

I pretty much did their job for them, and all they needed to do was show up and give the medications that I had laid out. When I talked to the manager, she was excellent, but her hands are tied on this. They could be on time when distributing medication. It is not appropriate to bring children and they should look professional when they are showing up. One time, no one ever showed up and another time, someone came in late with her daughter and curlers in her hair.

Robert &

They don't think they need help, but I know they are available if we need them. They are quick with responding.

Harriett K

They have been available and given good quality care. They are smart. We have had very good help.

Anonymous

They keep her alive basically. Some of the caregivers will come in, sit on their phones, and not engage with her. Some of the caregivers are better than others. They could improve some of the caregiver's skills.

Anne P_4

They've helped the most by always being available to do what I need her to do. I like that we've only had one caregiver help us for over a year, and they are easy to work with.

Pat E_4

They accompany me for a doctor's appointment. They are reliable.

Maria W_2

It was very easy to get in contact with them to set up the services that she needed. When changes are needed, it's easy to make them. I have to say, they're very easy to get in contact with. They are very open-door. Anybody can talk, anytime.

Tracey M_1

Initially, it was excellent, but then, my father's health got to hard for BrightStar Care to handle. Some nurses were excellent and others where poorly matched to my father.

Helen B_18

I used to have them administer, but now the facility does that for her. When I am not here, it makes a huge impact on me. I am very grateful. They are very pleasant. The people they sent for transportation have been friendly. There was one time they didn't get her there on time, but they also didn't bill us for that transportation.

Patricia D

They review and check to see if the caregiver is doing their job. I like that they match the clients with the caregivers.

Mattie L

In the beginning, they were able to provide me with caregivers. They could not provide me with someone for the timing that I needed. I would like to see availability of people to work. They don't have enough people to work.

Mike V

My loved one would like them to come later than 9 am because he likes to sleep. BrightStar Care communicated well when we first got things set up.

Nancy M_20

She always dependable and so helpful for my mom. Her caregiver is very professional and courteous.

George S_17

They have helped because of their willingness to get things done as quickly as they can. They are willing to drive me to any place I need. I would like for it to be cheaper. I like their willingness to do all the little things that I would like done.

Sarah R_4

He has passed away but they were okay when they came. I would have liked them to be more interactive with the patient.

Mary L_25

They have prompt service. I think the caregiver is pleasant, and it works out well.

Anonymous_1285

They were good.

Gigi S

The services are very helpful for my parents so that my mother can have lunch with my father. The administration group is very responsive with what our needs are.

Anonymous_1062

I didn't have to worry about my loved one. The people seemed very nice.

Michael H

They have provided the in-home care that she needs, but also the transportation she needs. Even when there are scheduling conflicts, the office staff always works it out. Even when they can't find a caregiver, they will come themselves.

Jane S_1

I have been able to have peace of mind. Even though it was short term, the services are excellent with my loved one and people with memory issues.

Ian M

We've asked BrightStar Care to make sure my mother takes her pills twice a day, and they do a great job of that. She thinks she can do it herself, but we realize that she needs that help. They are friendly, professional, and are always on time. They do what we ask them to do.

Anonymous

They could improve on a logging in and log out book for medications. I like the RN that oversees the program, they are very responsive. They could improve the communication between the caregivers.

Aretta D

One caregiver went to the hospital with me and stayed there until I had my surgery and then brought me home. She stayed with me all day in the surgery room and then took me home. They take good care of me. I have two people that do everything they are supposed to. The one I have at night is very cordial. The only bad experience I have had was with the one that came in the morning. She just sat down in the rocking chair and watched TV the whole time.

Elease G

It's made a major difference. It gives me a little more time to not be too stressed. I like the services that they get and the way they take care of my mom. They are very patient and very caring.

Lynda D

They have sent out caregivers that have seemed to be trained enough to know what they are doing. My needs are random so we do not have a consistent caregiver. They enable me to get out of the house for a little bit.

Moses T

This is a great company. The girls that we had were absolutely amazing. They taught me a lot on how I can help take care of my dad and they would always go the extra mile. When the service ran out and we had to say goodbye to these girls, I think we actually cried. They would come in and help my father bathe and dress and they would even ask to do things we didn't need them to do. When the services ran out, my father sent them both thank you cards because he loved them so much.

Susan H_23

They did a really good job for me. She came in to take care of him, and I was able to run errands and concentrate on what I needed to do. He enjoyed them coming, and it gave me some personal time.

Lauren B

They are always accommodating when my parents need change. I don't have to do what they do. It makes me feel relieved.

Howard F

BrightStar Care provided good service and helped my wife. BrightStar Care made my life better by helping my wife be more independent.

Sam J

I would recommend BrightStar Care because they are dependable and courteous. The services make life a bit easier by helping my loved one with her bath.

Joseph F

I would recommend BrightStar Care because they are always accommodating and are very efficient. The services from BrightStar Care allow me to trust that Joseph will be taken care of while I am not there.

Edith E

BrightStar Care was able to quickly accommodate our needs. The services we received from BrightStar Care were very helpful to me as the main caregiver.

Nancy H

BrightStar Care has caregivers that are very good and very well-qualified. BrightStar Care will take my mother on errands. This gives her an outing where she feels that she can set her own structure.

Gale R

BrightStar Care should have had better communication, and explain to the employees to not sleep, even when working night shifts. They also had nasty attitudes which I didn't appreciate. The services from BrightStar Care made life more aggravating.

Odessa H_1

BrightStar Care have caregivers that are time, consistence and are good people. BrightStar Care has helped make life easier to allow me to do things for my Mother that I can't do such as shopping.

Jan C

I would recommend BrightStar Care because the young lady they sent over was fantastic to work with and took good care of my mother-in-law. The impact was tremendous. The caregivers that filled in were just as fantastic as the normal one.

Mary S_24

I would tell a friend that BrightStar Care's caregivers are wonderful, but there have been inconsistencies in the care. We have a revolving door of caregivers and are always getting new people. My daughter requires constant care and observation. The services allow me to move around the house and get things done.

Gil L_1

BrightStar Care was professional, reasonable, and usually reliable. The services helped because there was some medication intervention.

Sandy S

I would tell a friend that BrightStar Care comes when they say they will come. BrightStar Care makes my life easier because I can't do the things they can do.

Susan H_16

I would recommend BrightStar Care to others because we've had several people over, and they have all been excellent. Also, the office is good at making changes and sending people last minute. BrightStar Care has had a good impact on Ed's life because he is able to get out several times a week, and this also gives him socialization.

JoAn H_7

BrightStar Care is very professional. They do what needs to be done. BrightStar Care is great with us. They do everything that we ask to be done. The caregiver takes care of our needs.

Anonymous_360

BrightStar Care charged me double than what they should have three different. The care from BrightStar Care helped me, but after my experience I would not want them again.

June T

I would tell others that the BrightStar Care owners care, but when dealing with the aides, I've only had one good out of four so far. The caregivers are supposed to come in, help June get up and give her a shower. They are also supposed to get her breakfast, clean her room and bathroom. They should keep her entertained, but some of the caregivers don't do all of this.

Arlene F

BrightStar Care is on time, and is caring. BrightStar Care's services allow me to be able to leave my mother and feel comfortable about it.
