We've had a great experience with Senior Helpers! They've been great! We've been able to have the same two caregivers come and help, and it's worked out well for our schedule! We mainly chose them because their staff seemed better trained for those who have memory issues, and need that special care.
They have been really good. We have a consistent caregiver, now. They have been pretty reliable. The billing is a little delayed, but not too bad, and I think that was just the initial set up. I'd give them a four out of five.
We chose Home Care Assistance because of the knowledge, enthusiasm, and expertise of the person we dealt with. She really sold me on them. If you do have concerns or comments let them know, they are are very accommodating. I would recommend them.
