We chose Care Connect Solutions because it was recommended to us and I found they were a little cheaper than some other groups. They were also very accommodating and flexible with the hours that we were needing. We are having a good experience with our caregiver we currently have, she has been wonderful and so was out first one we had. I would recommend them to others looking to use them.
This company is worth looking at if you need care for an elder. The workers that they have sent out have been pretty good for the most part.
The caregivers that come out to the house are on time and mom loves them. They help with light housekeeping and assisting mom as needed. They have taken care of any issues that have come up quickly. They explained everything up front. They have been attentive and flexible. I would highly recommend this home care agency.
