Types of care available in West Linn, OR
Sometimes the caregiver will prepare lunch. They also take me to my doctor appointments and where I need to get to. It can be quite expensive over time also. I have told other people about these services and recommended if they need any help. It can be hard to get back in contact with the office due to other issues always going on. Communication isn't always easy.
They seem very knowledgeable and caring. They are very nice and easy to work with. The caregiver they chose to help with my mom is working out well. My mom and [Removed] are getting along very well. Very pleased at this time.
It's working out well. We have had one girl, it's consistent care. That's one reason I chose them. She is very nice, and she knows what she is doing. She is very good. We have never had trouble with scheduling and having her be late, or not show up. I have never needed a replacement. I recommend them to anyone.
