They became friends and family to my father, which was especially meaningful at a time when everyone is isolated due to the pandemic. I highly recommend Always Here!

Yes Five Stars. Not given lightly. My father first used this company because of a friend's…read morerecommendation a year ago. He had just had a pace-maker installed and needed help at home. Complete Private Home Care sent out various people to handle everything we needed, carefully following his Primary Care Physician's list. This included an initial consult with Sue and then Danielle the nurse in charge of all the other aides and therapists. I know their names because I had to use them again after my father ended up in the hospital again this time with pneumonia. I didn't have much experience with home health workers when I hired Complete Home Health. However because of my age (mid 50s) I have had too much experience with my friend's parent's aides and assisted living situations. Also I had to oversee aides in Texas for my grandparents. So while I had not personally hired but one aide before (freelance--without an agency--also a friend's recommendation) I do feel able to award those five stars. What sets them apart? First they are very professional. I think perhaps because they are a smaller company, they are on top of each of their clients. They always knew who I was, and who my dad was and which workers were involved in his care. The co-ordinator Jon has a handle on all the clients. Next, the Administrative nurse has a great list of caregivers she can call upon. My father had problems swallowing and was prone to inhalation pneumonia, the therapists helped him learn strategies for eating. Physical therapists taught him to get him up walking again, home assessors came for safety. Further, they took a huge load from my shoulders by communicating with my father's Primary Care Physician at Harvard, so I did not need to still be in charge of all that on top of all the rest I was in charge of. Finally, all the people were loving and I never worried someone would steal from us or hurt my dad. They demonstrated far more patience than frankly, I had left in me. They suggested intelligent solutions to home problems such as different pill containers, cutting back shrubs for ease on stairs, removing certain roll around chairs, etc. They responded Immediately, and were able to be at the house within 4 hours of suddenly learning he was being released from rehab. When I was forced to hire them for out of pocket 24 hour care, they were able to make this far more affordable by charging for blocks of hours. Because we had installed 2 Drop-cams we could see that the 24 hour aides were never more than 20 feet away. This is a fabulous company. Hire them and feel safe. If you are like me, you need it.

This home health agency now called MGHBrigham provides traumatizing incompetent care. Michelle, the…read morenurse in charge of my geographic area, interpreted my disclosure that in my living will and advance directive, I have a long standing provision for "death with dignity...dnr, dni etc." I am relatively young but I had to make decisions for my parents so now I have my wishes in writing. This stupid and/or religiously perverse nurse took this as a potential suicide so a few days later at 4 am (!), four Waltham police broke into my home on something called a Section 12 which allows police to break in if an attempted suicide is indicated. In no way, was I suicidal. I was immersed in three spine construction surgeries and had my Will etc. in order. I mentioned it to her in case something happened. I had to call my PCP at 4 am. who knew me for 28 years to talk her and the police down. All Waltham police officers (4) who showed up were hot to trot and juiced up to take me in. This was unconscionable. Separately, Michelle was told by me, I probably had a UTI. I said I had a staph UTI previously but the daft Michelle said I non detectable by another person body odor and to buy expensive Lume. I did so but immediately after pressing purchase on Amazon, I thought better, and just called an ambulance (not yet able to drive) and went to NWH where I was diagnosed, as I thought, with a UTI (urinary tract infection). I fired Michelle and this agency. Now, I am suing her, the organization, and the Waltham Police. Imagine if I wasn't with it enough to self-advocate. Does she get a commission for sending people to a mental health institution? Stupidly wrong diagnosis? I hope I get her fired.

I've had five UTI's since November 2021 and three which needed to be treated by IV antibiotics and…read moreI was given a picc line to complete these at home. Before discharge, I was scheduled to be seen weekly by a visiting nurse from Partners. The same (outstanding) nurse which scheduled times to meet with me on Tuesday's, unfortunately, just relocated. The following week, someone from Partners arrived unannounced at my home. When my wife called me to let me know, I called and spoke with the "Clinical Manager" and explained that the previous nurse came on Tuesday and we generally worked on a time to meet. With no explanation, Solomon told me that they had changed my day to Monday. Further, I was told they can tell me the day they are coming, but not a time. When asked if arranging a mutually convenient time to meet was asking too much since I work, I was then told I needed to be home bound to receive their services. I also called the "Clinical Director" who conveniently kicked the can back down to the first person I spoke with. I want to be understanding of their regulations: if, for insurance purposes, you have to be "home-bound" then why was I admitted for services before? And why was this only mentioned when I expressed concern that a patient is expected to wait compliantly until their visiting nurse arrives? I'm a stage 4 cancer patient who was discharged from Partners Healthcare at Home because, thank God, I'm still actively working (but need weekly picc line dressing changes and blood work).

I reached out to the owner of Assisting Hands Home Care while attending a professional conference,…read morewhere I spoke with the Director of Development. At the time, my aunt was undergoing chemotherapy for a recent cancer diagnosis and was receiving in-home support from another care management company in the same market. Unfortunately, that provider was clearly taking advantage of the situation--the billing was excessive and resembled a law firm's itemized invoices. As a result, I immediately began searching for an alternative home care provider. From my very first interaction with Assisting Hands, the experience was outstanding. Every member of the team went above and beyond, providing professionalism, compassion, and genuine care during an incredibly difficult period for our family. We used Assisting Hands for several months, and my aunt truly loved every caregiver who visited her. Sadly, my aunt ultimately lost her battle with cancer. However, because of the exceptional care provided by Assisting Hands, we were able to bring her home for her final days, which meant everything to our family. The Director of Development even came out on a Friday night to personally coordinate with the hospice nurse from Good Shepherd Hospice and review the care plan. That level of dedication is rare. Assisting Hands treated us as far more than clients--we felt like family. Their compassion, concern, and humanity made an extraordinarily painful time more manageable. I cannot say enough about how much their care meant to us, and I would recommend Assisting Hands without hesitation to anyone in need of high-quality home care. Sincerely, Joe Garvin

I am beyond impressed with the care, coordination, prompt follow up and communication amongst all the staff at AH thus far. Elayna who is the director of client care responds to my emails 24/7 and constantly updates me and keeps me in the loop so I am informed at all times. She is professional, diligent and extremely efficient. Esther and Cindy are also very special people. On the first day of hire, Ester was accompanied by Cindy for few hours to make sure she was set up for success during her new assignment. This speaks to the caliber of care and expectations of AH. Prior to coming to the condo, Cindy met my client at the rehab to review nursing education and care plans so the discharge would be smooth and successful. This really speaks to the philosophy of AH making sure that the companions are comfortable, competent and safe during assignments and not just sending them in blind. Both Cindy and Ester connected with him immediately and treated him with the utmost respect and kindness. I can't recommend Assisting Hands enough, and look forward to continue to work with them in the future
