We use home care services through Absolute Homecare and Medical Staffing Portage for my loved one. They are very easy to work with and are so helpful and friendly! My dad wasn't wanting anyone there to help him, he's very stubborn. Despite that, they did their best to care for him. I would definitely recommend Absolute Homecare and Medical Staffing Portage to others.
Grandma Joan's provided me with a very easy to use platform to find and employ a live-in caregiver for my 104-year-old dad. All the administrative details which would have been very hard for me to find out and deal with were included in the step-by-step guidance provided. On one hand the service is pricey but on the other, not easy to find a comprehensive package that would have resulted in such a trustworthy arrangement, which was the overarching criterion. California has stricter rules about payment to caregivers than other states so cost is simply higher but given that as an unavoidable feature, this was still a more viable set up than I could otherwise find. All in all, I am very glad that I was referred to David and his service which has so far had a good outcome.
