She has been so helpful with doing house cleaning. She comes in and visits for a few minutes and then gets right to work. My 94 year old Dad has really enjoyed having someone come in to help with house chores.

Hello, I was referred by close family friend. It has been my absolute pleasure to have assistance from Senior America - Lake County. I am a 62-year-old woman with upper and lower back problems also sciatica. There are times when I can barely move because of the pain, and many things that I would like to take care of that I cannot. I feel that my caregiver is an answer to prayers. She’s amazing. I have two cats that I cannot change their litter. She feeds them takes care of them. She cooks, shops, cleans and does laundry for me. I know there are many people that can do these things, but she goes above and beyond what she can do. She’s like a daughter to me. She keeps me company and she enjoys listening to me. She makes me laugh and heal emotionally. I love our encouraging talks and I look forward to seeing her daily. It’s a pleasure to have someone who truly cares about you and it’s not just a job.

May 18, 2024Thank you for the great review Linda. Many blessings and well wishes to you.
Our aid [name removed] was the best. She took very good care of my grandpa. She was compassionate and even though he was stubborn and mean sometimes he loved seeing her. She is a great employee to have for options. You can tell that she cares for her patients and she takes awesome care of their needs.

My father had Options for several years and they did an amazing job caring for my father five days a week. The caregivers were awesome. The most recent caregiver named [name removed] was very good with my father and his final days of his life. [name removed] was like Family. Option staff were great with me specially, when my father passed they even came to his celebration of life and was very supportive with me.

May 18, 2024Thank you Tracy, we are happy to be able to help you care for your dad and keep him happy and safe at home.
I was a full time caregiver for my 93 year old dad. Other than 2 hours per week for bathing assistance, I had no help. I was completely burned out and exhausted. This agency was referred to me by a cousin who had used the services. I was hesitant, because dad could be difficult to work with. Our aide put me completely at ease, even taking time to sit with us, so that dad would be comfortable with her when left alone. I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone with such a pure and caring heart. She is forever a part of our family.

From the day our mother was matched with her caregiver, we received great service. We never could have imagined how helpful this service would be for our family, providing us with the peace of mind that our mother was in such good hands. We felt so fortunate to find this excellent organization and staff and to be provided with such a conscientious and caring person . She truly went above and beyond what we could have expected and made it possible for our mother to stay in her home.

May 18, 2024Thank you Victoria, I agree, Shamona is a very caring and attentive provider and we are blessed to have her as well as to serve your family.
This company has been a blessing to me. I love the hospitality and the way the staff are concerned about my well being. I would not add or take way from the professionalism. All the staff and [name removed] in particular is one of the best care providers I’ve ever had! I thank you for all you do for my family.

[name removed] has cared for my grandfather for 3+ years and she is very much like family at this point. The way she cares for him is so genuine and she makes him feel great about the care she provides. Often times, elders are angry at what they may not be able to do for themselves anymore but Mona has been instrumental in building my grandfather’s confidence back. The service from Options has been invaluable and Mona is an amazing asset to this company. We greatly appreciate the support we received and I highly recommend.

April 18, 2024Hello Mrs. Hupke, I am sorry to hear you were dissatisfied with our services provided to your husband. I do understand that having the right personality for a care provider is as important as the care. Unfortunately we were unable to find staff willing to work in the particular living conditions you have and equally difficult to find staff willing to work in an emotionally unhealthy environment. We did try to communicate this to you in the best way possible but this was not something we could get to change. We only hire staff that are willing to be professional and respectful always and while there are some medical conditions that inhibit the ability for the client to reciprocate, we equally expect our Care Providers to be treated in a respectful and professional manner. We do wish you the best with finding the right fit for your home care needs.
Options was sent to me by the VA ,not having family close they’ve been a great help . I have meals cooked for me with each visit . Staff cleans my living areas as well as take me out grocery shopping . This company has been a great help .

October 22, 2019Thank you sir, we thank you for your service to our country and we look forward to continuing to provide you with great care.
I will always be thankful for Options. When my dad suddenly passed away...my sisters and I tried to pick up the 24hr care my mom needed. With limited vision, diabetes, dementia and frequent falls...she could not be left alone. We heard about Options and they came to meet my mom and us...it was an instant connection. I recently told [name removed] they were "Angels that came to us in one of the darkest times of our lives". These girls took excellent care of mom. They became family...sisters...and daughters to my mom. They brought her to picnics..parties and holidays. She loved all of them. [Names removed] were great to work with and the girls they sent were so loving and caring. [Names removed] were there at the end and you couldn't ask for more devoted "daughters". [Name removed] stayed all night with my mom the last time she was in the hospital. I can't say enough about this Agency. They will always be very special to this family.

October 18, 2019Hi Sheri, it was an absolute pleasure caring for your mom and your family will forever be part of our Options family.
My mother has had caregiving services from Options for Senior Americans for over a year now and we couldn't be more pleased. The caregivers are excellent and the whole staff is very professional and attentive to my mother's needs. She was determined to stay in her own home after turning 90 and no longer being able to drive. But that meant she would be living alone with none of her children living close by. I really didn't think this was a possibility until I heard of Options for Senior America. From our initial meeting and interview we were thrilled with all the services offered: transportation to appointments, church and social engagements, as well as help with grocery shopping and other activities, and all for a reasonable and affordable cost. We were matched with a primary caregiver who has been more efficient and caring than we ever could have expected. When my mother had a health crisis, Options staff were there to assess her condition and get her immediately to the hospital. If I had known that such a great service was available years ago I would not have worried so much about my mother being able to continue living as she wished in her own home. The best news is that my mother's health has actually improved with the help of Options personnel and she is happy and secure. We are so grateful.
