AgingCare 2

Overall, I would say that SYNERGY is doing well for my loved one. However, we were surprised to find that the director, who we interviewed with and who really helped sway our decision to go with Synergy, left the job a few weeks ago. It definitely caused some alarm and confusion, but I hope that it will work out, and they will continue doing well for us.

I’ve been using ComForCare for my friend who needs more attention than what a lot of communities have been able to offer and so far we’re happy with it. There was a caregiver they had sent us, who had only come twice, who called me on a Saturday one week and told me she would not be able to come because she was attending a funeral, which I understood. However, she did not call me until the time that she was supposed to be there and when I asked if she would be able to come later in the afternoon, she stated she would not because she was in a different state. There wasn’t much communication on her part and because of that, I had to take care of my friend that day myself. Since then, they’ve sent me someone new and she’s been really good. One of the caregivers that we get during the week will make food when necessary and seems to keep the place pretty clean. We only use their services about twice a week though. They’ll do activities with my friend as much as he will allow them, but he has trouble walking so that kind of limits what they can do. Overall, I would recommend them for those looking for home care options.

My parents are doing reasonably well with Synergy home care. Our primary issue, however, is the fact that the caregiver that has come in to replace their former caregiver could be more self motivated. This is a rather minor issue and we are working through this. Besides that, we are pleased.

The people here were very helpful and nice. The only thing is that mom was looking for services that can help her and help around the house. This company just basically provided companion care. Just did not work out.

I was very happy with this service for the care in a home for my mom. We were happy knowing that someone was helping watch over my mom and keep her company and was nice and responsible for assisting in her needs. She was on time and friending and caring. We would recommend this service to other families for good in home care.

We are happy with the good care that this service does provide. The caretaker does help with some personal needs to help out cooking, cleaning, We did have to address an issue that my father only wanted a female caretaker. They were helpful and willing to improve little things when addressed. I would recommend this service overall and they did end up going above and beyond,

Companion is punctual, personable, experienced and conscientious. However, the company does not participate with Medicare or Medicaid.

So far everything is going well we have only had the service for about a week now, but so far everything is going great. The staff that has come in is very friendly and very helpful with my mother. I would recommend this agency I would say to anyone looking into care options just speak up and make sure the agency understands your needs and exactly what you want.

I would say that overall the experience has been very positive. I was hoping that they would have more experience with Alzheimer's, but there has not been a lot of success. I realize that might not be entirely their fault, but I just had the impression they would be a little more experienced.

We're quite happy with Home Companion Services. The caregiver they send out is great. Overall, we're very satisfied.

So far so good! The most important Mom is comfortable with all the girls that come in, they are very friendly so she cooperates and they get along great. I also really like that it gives her a chance to talk and socialize. I do wish they would give home health aides specific training regarding Alzheimer's and dementia, classes to learn about the disease in general. Having worked with Alzheimer's patients and knowing why they are behaving the way they are behaving are two different things, and would be useful knowledge to have. I've taken a class myself and found it very eye opening.

They really do a good job. They are very friendly and helpful. They really make it feel like company rather then like we are paying for the service. We are very happy with them and would recommend them to anyone looking for these services.

My father seems to be very happy with Synergy and with the caregivers that he's working with, and if he's happy, then we're happy. I could tell that he liked the fact that they were coming because one day, when we were talking on the phone, a caregiver came in and he perked right up instead of sounding run down and depressed like he usually does.

I liked them very much.

We were very impressed with the owner and her company. We have had so many things going on that we have not finalized anything yet. In fact, we are going to be calling her to get started here as soon as possible.

The person that came out to the house was great. They anticipated a lot of my questions and concerns. They were organized and seemed very knowledgeable. I have a concern about one of the owners so I did not think this service would work for us.

The caregiver that came out to the house was wonderful. She helped with the cooking, shopping and was a companion. She was sweet worked very hard and went above and beyond. We did have some issues with the manager as we they did not explain everything about how you have to agree to a minimum of a month of service. I felt they went around me and had dad sign the contract. We did have an issue with getting out of the contract even though we advised them they were not getting the care they needed. Dad did not like speaking to the manager [Removed]. I would suggest asking a lot of questions when looking into this care service.

I would tell others looking into Kennedy Companion Care that they should know that physical rehab is not the same level of care as nursing home. I would recommend their services, but the family should show a lot of interest and facetime.

In my opinion the review should be based on each individual that provided the services. Also the individuals should meet all the required federal, state and health regulations. One of the workers that took care of my sister had extremely long nails. The regulation states that nails should be short.

We did only use them twice. WE chose Partner in Care because of their availability and they were recommended to us. We met with them and it seemed like a good fit, I would recommend to others looking.
