One of my greatest concerns, based on interactions with a previous care provider, was lack of effective communication. I brought this up to Brett and his team during our initial meeting and he ensured me there would be plenty of communication. Brett and his team kept my wife and informed of all significant actions, and some not-so-significant actions, and it really put us at ease. Our previous care provider would often send me text messages asking how to do this or that for my mom. Assisting Hands, on the other hand, would provide me with notification when an important event like a doctor's appointment had been completed. I was thoroughly impressed with the genuine care and the professionalism from the management team, and I was equally impressed with the caregiver Assisting Hands provided. As our business relationship with Assisting Hands concluded (mom moved into memory care) I made sure to relay to Brett and his that my wife and I couldn't thank them enough for coming to our rescue when we needed it most. Brett and his team allowed my wife and me some much needed relief. I recommend Brett and Assisting Hands to anyone in Northern Virginia area.

4 minutes agoNEW-Edit As this is a business that does…read moreeverything to encourage positive reviews -ie they continually send messages please review us- I felt it is worth warning people about this company. My father has Alzheimers and was in a memory care unit. The unit required us to hire 24 hour nursing as he was experiencing psychological issues and was going to be transferred to a facility- we spent over $30000 for his care, and because his transfer to the other facility was touch and go based on a number of reasons, we tried to warn them of an ending. We spoke with Charlene and asked how much notice she required and she told us 1 week. At that point we did tell her ok, he will be gone in a week, and he was. My father was discharged a day earlier on Thursday April 29,2021. When I received the billing I noticed we were billed through April 30, using the same caregiver- see the picture. What is odd is we were billed for the same caregiver who apparently sat with him for 24 hours as we were billed for her 8 hours thursday and then another 16 hour shift the following day. Since he was discharged on Thursday afternoon, I just figured they were billing us out for the 7 day notice, which is perfectly reasonable. I called to get copy of all the bills so I can reconcile , and I was suprised to hear from Rochelle in billing that we were being billed yet another week because we did not give notice. We immediately called Charlene who referred us back to Rochelle - Great the person we gave notice to, refers us back to billing. I know elderly care is a big business, and I certainly think people should earn their money. We had no problem with the bill, even billing out the 7th day per our notice- but to send us yet another bill 2 weeks after my father had been discharged seems to be a bit much- On May 10th we received a bill for 4072.50 billing us for 5/1-5/7. My father was discharged on 4/29/21. While we have no problem with the service, we most certainly do have problem with the billing. I write this to caution anyone who signs a contract to do the following- review bills carefully, attempt to avoid the ACH , which might not be possible, and most certainly send your notice in a certified letter so you have proof. This company will use any "gotcha" they can. And remember, companies who solicit reviews, are doing so for a reason. Everything I have posted is true and accurate, and I have the paperwork to back it up. Possible litigation requires you to have your ducks in a row. If anyone reading this has had the same problem with this company, please feel to contact me. Perhaps we can pool resources and stories.

There was another review stating about how this "company is all about money" and I could not agree more. They barely pay their nurses the amount each one deserves as I'm sure the office personnel lives very well off instead. If you think they have customer service.... sorry to inform you, they don't. If you get to speak with anyone from the office, all you get is attitude. basically, it's their way or you are pretty much left with no other option. Unfortunately, There isn't honesty or integrity from the agency and if you don't have that from the office, most of the time you receive this from the nurses too. And it's funny to say that most nurses say the office made them lie. Example: one nurse was told to say she had been in contact with someone that had COVID (now remember how this is not even something anyone should joke about especially dealing with the elder) and only lied because she has to work another case. Can you imagine how we as the family felt knowing that our loved one could had been with a nurse who had been in contact with someone with Covid?! Not only our loved one but us ourselves had to all be tested just to find out the office and the nurse had lied to us!! Most nurses (definitely not all) are hard-working people and willing to adapt to the environment while others don't last a day with their new case. Each family is considered a "case". Again most nurses, want to work longer days or OT but this agency sends another nurse to a case they are not familiar with and without training. The agency's logical is completely a joke! Should a nurse willing to work OT, it makes more sense to send the same nurse to the same case they normally work rather then someone who can't be trained. The frustration level dealing with this agency has been less than professional. To the point where they don't even pick up your call (I'm sure they have caller ID) but even so they can't even return your call. Listen, I could keep going and reveal more on how this agency works however, the advice I give to those looking for someone to take care of your love one is to keep looking for another agency. At this point, I have had so much knowledge of what NOT to do that I could one day open up my own agency because the lack of EVERYTHING with this one is a total joke.
