She didn't get as much done as I expected, and she was here much longer than I thought she would be. This was her first time, though. What she did was well done, meticulous actually. The kitchen floor looked fabulous! Cleaner than it has ever been. There were permanent (we thought) marks that are gone now. She was willing to stay even longer. It was I who said no. She seemed frustrated, but she was polite about it. The tasks she left were small ones. This was her first time with us. It won't take as long as she gets to know our house, I hope. She brings her own equipment and supplies, and she checked with me to make sure I was ok with what she was using before she started. I asked her to come back next month.

If you live in the Rockford area and are seeking help for a loved one please avoid this company at…read moreall cost. They were hired to help my aunt and uncle with dementia. They were assigned a caregiver and at first things seemed ok. However after a few visits they started sending a different caregiver each time without notifying the family of the change. The new caregiver was given NO information about the client's condition or what kind of care they needed. The company gives them nothing but the address and what time to show up. Multiple times we asked that our family be notified when there is a change of caregivers so that we could explain to my aunt and uncle and ease any fears. We were told that this was not possible. Our attempt to keep an open line of communication was met with contempt by people like Amy Roesser. She was rude, uncaring, and confrontational. It is unreasonable and cruel to continually confuse an elderly couple with dementia. Anyone familiar with this condition knows how confusing and frightening changes can be for patients. It is also shameful to care so little about the patients you serve that caregivers are given no information before their arrival. After multiple attempts to remedy this situation we have no choice but to terminate service... which means paying the time remaining on our contract. If you have a loved one who needs care, please find a company actually care's about the safety and comfort of their clients. A company of comfort givers NOT Comfort Keepers!

I for one was sent to a home with no notes on a patient and no paperwork. One afternoon I was basically called a liar that the certain staff member said she had given me the paperwork but I never did receive it. It is not a good thing to walk into someones house not knowing their name incase of an emergency, their diet restrictions if any, medical conditions, or if they need a walker or wheelchair. It really saddens me to think how great this company was and I was in hopes to still find the caring. loyal, and trustworthy company I had worked for in the past.

Unfortunately, the actions of Visiting Angels of Rockford have instigated estrangement between my…read morefather and his children - myself and my brother. Both my father and stepmother are not physically well, and not of sound mind. They are cognitively impaired by dementia, paranoia, and long time addictions that have addled their brain. After things reached a crisis point, their healthcare provider would not release them from hospital without a plan for home care. Visiting Angels were employed to cover this. As mental health kept declining, my stepmother took measures to keep my brother and I out of the picture, even though we have been attempting to care for and help them for years. We were shut out and told that the Visiting Angels were all they need and that we should stay away. My brother and I have had a very good relationship with our father, this was uncharacteristic and most certainly a sign of dementia and stepmother's machinations to keep us out. Since we were shut out, both my brother & I made occasional phone calls to Visiting Angels, maybe once a month at most, to check in on how things were going, and express concerns that we had about their health. I was horrified to discover that the care coordinator was calling my stepmother after these phone calls to tattle on us! This is a breach of my privacy and very unprofessional. Surely, Visiting Angels is aware of the cognitive state of my parents and yet, they ignored that, went behind our backs and reported my brother and I for being meddling. At no point did Visiting Angels tell me when I made these calls, that they would be reporting back to my parents. They did this secretly and without our knowledge and consent. This is a serious violation, and its lucky I don't have any money, otherwise I'd hire an attorney to sue you. My father, in a heightened state of dementia, lashed out at me, became violent, (luckily didn't physically try to hurt me), and treated me like I was some sort of degenerate who was trying to upend his life simply because I was concerned and checking in with the service that he now regarded as more important than his own children. He & my stepmother have shut down all contact and we are now estranged -- all as a result of Visiting Angels making secretive phone calls to tattle on well-meaning children who only wanted the best for their parents. You should be ashamed of your behavior, and someone should have lost their job as a result. I would never recommend this Visiting Angels franchise, unless you want to lose contact with your parents.
