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.
I had an elderly father that needed overnight care after a hospitalization release, and I needed to find the right person for the job immediately. I got referred to Home Instead - they came by the same day, and set us up with [name removed], who was exactly what we needed. There's not too much more to say, I was taken care of the same day I needed someone, and I couldn't have asked for anyone any better then who they sent. [name removed] was kind, helpful, compassionate and overall excellent. The office staff was kind and always helpful. I am so glad I called Home Instead. Thank you for all that you did for my dad and our family!
We use home care services through Comforcare Home Care for my loved one and everything is excellent. My loved one's caregiver is great. They work on a schedule of three hour shifts. The friendliness is wonderful. The care services, activities and value for cost have been great. I would recommend Comforcare Home Care to others!
