The caregivers were great and they did a great job helping me get back on my feet. I would recommend this service to others based on my experience.
This is my second time using Bright Watch, but I needed to use their service for different family members so I wanted to add another review. I first hired Bright Watch in 2014 for my parents and they serviced us until November 2019 when both my parents passed away. In April 2020 my husband and I noticed my mother-in-law's Alzheimers has progressed we decided it was time we get a caregiver. I recommended Bright Watch to my husband's family due to my awesome experience. They agreed so I called Bright Watch and spoke with [name removed] who has been there for 10 years and she gave me a ton of info to pass on to the family. My husband's 6 brothers and sisters each reached out to her individually. She was so kind, helpful and answered all our questions. Long story short we signed up to use Bright Watch again and we have been very happy with the caregivers and both [name removed] and [name removed] in the office. To all of the staff Bright Watch, you have been a blessing to my whole family, thank you AGAIN!
We did have to try a few different caregivers and they did not match with our loved one and the needs we were looking for. The last caregiver we got is excellent and I am glad we found her. Make sure to have them send someone that matches with your loved one. The administrative staff have been responsive and flexible and we have been happy with them.
