About a year and a half ago Watsonville Residential Care changed hands and is now managed by former…read moreowners of Chanticleer Home in Santa Cruz. It changed its name as well to Montecito Manor. Since then the place kept going up and down in quality of care, and finally took a serious dive. Now it's awful. The help is unqualified, communication between caregivers and administration is non-existent. They claim memory care - they have no clue. They warehouse the more advanced cases. It seems all the actions are aimed at making it convenient for the facility not for the residents. They lose and destroy residents' clothing and belongings. Just awful.

Every Safe at Home worker that sat with my mother was caring and professional. Sometimes our schedule would change unexpectedly, and Safe at Home was very accommodating about adding or subtracting shifts, or working oddly-timed shifts. I have nothing but positive comments to say about their professionalism and service. It was a "crisis" time for us, and it's great to know that there are such wonderful people at this company, able to step in and provide the ongoing assistance for our loved one that we ourselves could not provide. Thank you, Safe at Home, for all that you did for us.

Scheduling was easy, and I had orders sent by my doctor via secure fax. After receiving an email reminder the day before, Alondra arrived on time and took care to prepare a sterile area, even covering her shoes before coming in. She took the time to find a good vein and even helped ensure successful access by applying a heating pad to my arm. The draw was quick and she was able to pull multiple tubes. I still got faint but that was ok because I was comfortable on my couch and her comforting demeanor ensured I felt better quickly. She has all the equipment needed to prep the samples before bringing them to the lab and the whole process took less than 20 minutes including the vein quest and vasovagal recovery! Highly recommend!

Then in early 2024, I needed hip replacement surgery. My wife has dementia, so I hired CFTH to take care of my wife, expecting to be able to come back home after 4 days in a skilled nursing facility. I had major setbacks and spent 2 full months in the hospital. Thankfully, I returned home to a wife that had been extraordinarily well cared for during my unexpected absence. At that point, I also needed a lot of care. It's two years later, and the team from CFTH is still taking excellent care of my wife and me. I am very grateful for Jackie and her team.

It proved to be very difficult giving myself these shots. My daughter suggested I find an at-home nursing service that could help give me the shots. Fortunately, I discovered Care From the Heart, and Nurse Jackie. She was available on very short notice to come to my home and help. What a relief. From her first visit she was professional, caring, sympathetic, and efficient. She came everyday to administer my shot, in the arm and leg. She was very good and administered my daily shots almost painlessly. Such a relief. I would recommend Care from the Heart for any in-home nursing needs.

After terminating our relationship with them, we contracted with TbA and what a difference. They provided caring and dedicated caregivers who really reached out to make our 92 year old father feel very comfortable and safe.

Caregivers showed up when scheduled and provided all the services one would expect from a professional organization. Compassionate and caring, I just wish I would have hired them from the beginning. Do yourself a favor and start with them.
