Edwin was always looking his Sunday best and no matter how grumpy he got the caregivers were always so kind and in good spirits haha. My grandfather passed away this last March, but he was cared for by G&J caregivers for 3 1/2 years. Gigi was there literally every step of the way and her caregivers are top notch employees and the most incredible people. I wouldn't have had anyone else caring for him. I really can't put into words how wonderful they made the last years of my grandfathers life. I highly highly recommend G&J for anyone looking for home health care for their elders. Thank you so so much G&J for everything!!!!

When someone is ready to go, it is important someone there to guide you if the patient doesn't want…read moreto go elsewhere BUT stay @ home with their families UNTIL it's time for them to leave earth. That's exactly where the Hospice & Palliative Care came in to help when needed. They provided my home comfort for my mom, in 2008, when she decided to come live with me. They called in for everything SHE NEEDED, to make her life easier: bed, support, someone to come clean her, do her nails, and I can call them anytime day or night - someone is always on the phone ready for my questions or whatever I needed. I'm not a caregiver, nor have I ever worked in a hospital, nor would I ever want to, . . . but I became one instantly, just because I have that 'mother experience - two kids of my own,' and taking care of a mother was difficult specially if she became a tantrum teenager @ almost 91 years old. Very difficult indeed! It was also a chance for her & me to bond, with a happy ending. But that's not why I'm reviewing, just something to think about, why I NEVER gave up. She was my mom, afterall! Hospice & Palliative Care made it easy for me, because they are always there to guide me, & support me and give me advice, or comfort me when I'm breaking bad, and calm me down take charge once again. My mom was able to eat foods she used to eat @ home, or when she was younger . . . the hospital or any care giving home wouldn't have given her choices. Mom was able to get help when she rang the bell, or if she needed help just to go to the bathroom, or for a walk outside in my backyard, in the comfort of our secluded private backyard and a driveway where she can easily walk her walker. Or do that by herself, while I sit in my hammock, doing my quilting or reading a book, or tending my roses. Sometimes, when I visit people in hospice care, elsewhere, I feel nothing but sadness for them, because their families are nowhere to be found, or seldom visits them. They have no views in their room, but 4 walls. In my home, mom had enough to keep her entertained, and she could see my garden from her bed, or listen to piano playing next room, or someone to pray with her everyday, or read poems to her. She always have my husband & me, or families 24hrs. day or night. The Hospice & Palliative Care, care about safety, medications, equipment we were using, and they'd want us to ask questions and to help us understand the care I'm giving mom. They listen. I believe that is was also important that the doctor they provided also understands my mom's illness and they succeeded and will recommend Providence Home Services to anyone. With their help, I think I gave mom the best care she needed with their help.

We have used Circle of Care for both of our geriatric parents. We wanted an atmosphere that we…read morecould keep both of our parents at home until they left this world. Circle of Care did an excellent job in evaluating all the levels of care and needed level of care as life continued to change. Trustworthy, kind and professional. I knew my parents had the best care we could give them. From bathing to eating to doctor's appointments, they handled it. We also didn't have to worry about any type of abuse which is a huge concern in this industry. I highly recommend Cynthia and the entire team, at Circle of Care.

Circle of Care provided a caretaker for approximately eight hours a week to provide relief for the full time caretaker hired through different agency. For reasons beyond anyone's control, the relief caretaker wasn't able to sustain her commitment. Circle of Care was determined and aggressive in finding a replacement to avoid any lapse in care. Most importantly, Cynthia, the CEO at Circle of Care, demonstrated kindness, empathy, and dedication. She was always accessible and responsive to questions or concerns. Shannon, as the COO, clearly explained administrative details, which included the all-important question of fees, etc. My mother passed away after five months of in-home care, and while I don't anticipate needing similar service anytime soon, I would definitely recommend Circle of Care to others.

They do a good job at cleaning, laundry, etc. I only wish they had more cooking skills, so you do need to write out recipes. The manager came in for a 30 day checkin, and the comes quarterly.

I unfortunately needed to quit my job because I moved away to take care of a family member on hospice. At that time, the administrator was Jamie and I learned so much from her and the owner, Scott. I enjoyed my time working in the office with the team and also appreciated it when given the opportunity to take on some caregiving shifts as well. Helping people is a passion mine and working for SHC I was able to do just that. I'm grateful to Scott for the opportunity to work for a rewarding company. I learned a lot, and wish SHC continued success.

After my first total knee…read morereplacement surgery (12/17), we decided i would get post-op caregiver service for the second total knee replacement surgery (12/18). I learned that my husband couldn't be there for me when he was getting burned out from neglecting his own well being. After 'researching' the caregiver details, features, specifics, etc., then contacting the contenders, it was incredible to find the one caregiver service in which the company worked with my criteria versus meeting theirs. Chris was and is very thorough with an almost intuitive approach in customizing his services that met my needs. From the initial phone call to the resulting transportation & available caregiver services, the words that come to mind in describing Chris and his excellent team would be thoroughness, professional, cooperative, and understanding. I know, I know: it sounds too good to be true, but in this case it really was and is. Thank you Portland In-Home Care.
