    We hired Harvest to take care of my 90 year old mother with lung cancer in our home. We used…read moreHarvest 5 - 7 hours a day, 5 - 7 days a week, from February until October when my mother passed away. Vanria and Tracey run the place, both are extremely nice and very professional. If our care giver was running 15 minutes late, I would always hear from Vanria. If you called for Vanria or Tracey, they always picked up the phone regardless of the day or time I called. We had a primary caregiver 4 - 6 days a week and then a 2nd caregiver 1 - 3 days a week. Primary changed along the way, Zoe, Brittany, and in the end Krystal. Change over 8 months is inevitable and as much as I regretted losing someone we were used to; the next caregiver was as good or better than her predecessor. Joyce was our 2nd caregiver for the additional 1 - 3 days a week over the 8 months. In the end we had Krystal and Joyce taking care of my mother as she transitioned into hospice and end of life. I remember the 1st time Joyce walked into our home with the nicest smile. I knew I liked her before she said a word. Krystal is not only compassionate and caring; she is also very intelligent and adaptable. I think a good caregiver finds her own way to be useful and make things easier for the care recipient and family. We never told Krystal what to do, she knew what to do and did it on her own. When my mother and I had an appointment with mom's oncologist, I liked having Krystal with us and welcomed her input at the appointment. Krystal always remembered pertinent things, that I forgot to mention, and she brought them up to the Dr. Krystal & Joyce were front line and knew better than I what my mom's condition was. Hospice gets tough and the old saying goes when the going gets tough the tough get going. Krystal and Joyce are two tough ladies! Joyce and Krystal both stepped it up as the workload required. More than just being there to help, both are extremely compassionate and caring. I don't recall ever having to ask Joyce or Krystal to do something. Rather they did what was needed without being asked (they knew better than me, what was needed), and often volunteered or asked if they could do more. I guess to sum it up; I can't imagine Krystal or Joyce treating their own mothers any better than they treated my mother. I don't usually write reviews and never to this length; Harvest went above & beyond and deserves the praise.

Home Instead gravely mishandled sending a new permanent unvaccinated caregiver into my parents' home without disclosing this information, thus putting their lives at risk. My parents have many comorbidities, including COPD, asthma, heart disease, and hypertension that could have been the end for them if the Delta variant was transmitted during an unguarded moment of mask removal, which has happened with other Home Instead caregivers. Belle, the administrator on the phone, was very defensive about asserting company policy, and not heeding our alarm and serious concerns, citing misinformation about HIPAA and their not being allowed to ask employees about Covid-19 vaccination status (quite wrong, according to Robert H. Shmerling, MD, senior faculty editor at Harvard Health Publishing, in an article of August 2021, who says companies ARE allowed to ask employees about their status and make their own mandates). Home Instead does not take care to do this, is more concerned with the bottom line, and instead sends unvaccinated workers into the homes of the elderly, putting them at risk and claiming that we did not ask for such accommodations. We have been clients of this company for several years and they have been unprofessional and have not treated us with honesty and transparency. Belle was defensive and confrontational when we expressed our upset and displeasure, and protected the owner of the company, who was not interested in getting involved. Terrible client relations!
