I am enormously grateful for this company. My mother in law very suddenly needed 24/7 caregivers…read moreand we were in a panic trying to find a company to meet her needs. Luckily we chose to use BrightStar. The owners are outstanding. They were calm and understanding in what was a very stressful situation. Even on a Friday night they were available and they were able to quickly schedule caregivers around the clock. All of the caregivers have been competent and compassionate. Our minds are at ease knowing my MIL is being taken care of so well. I 100% would recommend this to anyone that is looking for care for themselves or their loved ones.

I would give one star based on my bad experiences; however, I also had a few aides that are decent,…read moreso I feel 2 stars is fair. Some examples of my experiences with them in the 8 days that we used them: We called the nurse there and was advised to take my husband to ER on a Sunday night. She advised us to cancel out aide the next day because my husband might be admitted. It turned out that the ER visit was not necessary so we returned home around 4:30am. I called their 24-hour hotline and was told by Patrick that he would contact the scheduler at 7:30am to see if we can get our aide back. When I finally got up in the morning after an exhausting night, I called back and found that Patrick didn't contact the scheduler at all. He only did it after I called and told me that the earliest time that an aide could come was 2:30pm. My husband's diaper/sheet was saturated with urine in the morning and I am not strong enough to change him. I had to call another agency to get help. They sent someone over in 40-minutes and helped me clean up my husband. That was an extremely unpleasant and stressful experience. We talked to Brightstar and one of the aides, hoping to have her sign up for more shifts with us. They insisted that it can't be done, but the aide was puzzled because she clearly had the availability. One aide was sleeping on the job, another one had many issues and I told them that I'd rather take care of my husband myself if she was the only one available. I emailed a few people at Brightstar (including the scheduler) about changing the hours from 12-hour per day to two 4-hour shifts. A few days later, I got the new schedule, it still showed 12-hour per day. They claimed that it's hard to get the same aides for the fixed shifts because they all work for different agencies. We had a revolving door of caregivers the first week. The new agency found fixed aides for us in less than 2 days and promised that they'll be the same for the remainder of the time that we still use them (unless any of them are sick or have emergencies - which is reasonable). It CAN be done! My husband (who is in hospice) is very happy with the new aides and I am relieved that I no longer have the headaches dealing with the issues associated with Brightstar.

5 Stars - Exceptional Care and Compassion…read more We've been with Mint Home Care for over a year now, and they have been absolutely amazing in providing care for both my mom and dad at different times. From day one, their caregivers, staff, and administrative team have felt like family. They've been accommodating, flexible, and incredibly supportive--especially during what can be such a stressful time when you're trying to care for your loved ones. What stood out most to us is how deeply they care. The team often went above and beyond, even visiting my parents at home or in rehab facilities just to check in on them. It's rare to find an organization that combines professionalism with genuine compassion, but Mint does exactly that. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is looking for care for a loved one. We trust them 100% and truly feel they've become an essential and cherished part of our family.

Most importantly, the leadership is wholeheartedly focused on quality care and client experience. I highly recommend them.

I can't tell you how much we loved the help we received. My father has Parkinson's and his mobility is limited. The care giver, whose name is Paulina, was amazing! She came before her scheduled time on each visit and developed such a great relationship with my father. She bathed him, took him for walks, ironed his clothes, made his bed, arranged for his food and had great conversation with him. She was an Angel and having someone like her to care for my father was something I will never forget. Everyone at Homewatch from Tim the owner to all the staff were so kind and understanding and worked with me on any schedule changes or additional needs. I hope to employ their services when my father visits next!
