I'm updating my original 1-star review based on what eventually happened…read more My phone experience with Apria was very poor. I was repeatedly told over the phone that I would need to go to the South San Francisco location, and the guidance I received in multiple phone calls was inconsistent and unhelpful. However, my in-person experience at the Santa Clara office (which is much closer to my home) was a completely different story. Someone (Kader, If I remember the name correctly) at the Santa Clara office took the time to actually help. While they were not able to directly provide the compliance report I was asking for, they: - Provided me with the SD card -Clearly explained what needed to be done - Sent instructions that allowed me to download one full year of CPAP compliance data I was able to take that data to my doctor, which helped move my care forward. The contrast between phone support and in-person support was stark. Phone support was frustrating and misleading, but the Santa Clara office staff were helpful, patient, and practical. Because of that in-person help, I'm revising this to 4 stars. Apria would benefit greatly from aligning phone support quality with the level of service provided by their local offices.

Negative 5 stars. These people are the fricken worst to deal with! My newborn needed a bili blanket…read moreand one was provided by Kaiser shortly after discharge. She only needed it for a few nights, so after she was done with the therapy I called Apria for them to pick it up. Then the headaches started. I got one individual on the line that verified our information and they told me they would send a driver to pick it up that day.. and of course that was a lie. Two days went by and I called back again. I got another individual on the line and I asked what the status of the pick up was.. and of course she had no idea what I was talking about and she couldn't find any information in their system. I asked for a call back when she was able to find my information and get this blanket scheduled to be picked up. No call. I have called back 10 times after that and got the run around - 'oh I can't find your information, let me call you back after further digging' was the most common response and every once in a while 'I have found your information and got a pick up scheduled' - and surprise surprise that second prompt was a complete lie. I have even asked to speak to a manager about this after I got a 'oh I can't find your information' response. And of course they couldn't find my info either and they asked me to put on hold so they can do some further investigation. I asked for a call back instead.. nothing. Not even an end of day call saying, 'hey still looking into this for you'. At this point over 3 weeks have gone by and no success. Then I called back again and got this young man that immediately found my information and saw that I called in so many times regarding this that he put in a 'ticket' for a rushed pick up; he was quite confident it would be picked up that day. That was this last Wednesday and of course, nothing. I called back yesterday, Thursday and they said it would be picked up that day and it was assigned a driver but they didn't have a time and that it can be picked up as late as 11PM! And I'm sure if you're still reading this review you probably knew what happened - no pick up! I called back the next day and the operator was wondering why it wasn't picked up the day before, so she put in another rushed ticket to get it picked up. About an hour after that call it was FINALLY picked up. It doesn't surprise me that there are so many negative, 1 star reviews, with this company - I am surprised such a stellar healthcare company, like Kaiser, would choose these incompetent idiots. Apria,if you're reading this: it really isn't that hard: when someone calls in write NOTES in your CRM, follow up with your clients if you don't know the answer, and UNDER promise and OVER deliver. I've seen that this bili blanket is around $3k or more - you aren't dealing with tinker toys - you're dealing with life saving, medical equipment! Get your crap together!!!

We began working with Right at Home at the beginning of April and had a great care giver for my…read moremother-in-law. The care-giver came a couple times a week to take my mother-in-law on walks and to run errands, make lunch, and engage her in conversation as she can no longer drive by herself, has trouble getting around on her own, and has some speech troubles. As we began a 2-month remodel, we took a break from services. I called a couple weeks ago to restart care, and the past caregiver was no longer with the service. I gave our information to Caitlin again, and waited to hear back. After several days, I called again. They asked me all the same questions, and I had to re-give all our information, as if I had never called initially. We scheduled a caregiver to come out for three hours. When she arrived, the first thing she said (before introducing herself) was "Sorry, I might smell. I just biked here." There was definitely a break in communication, as this person could not take my mother-in-law to run errands on her bicycle, and didn't even have a driver's license to drive one of our cars. I immediately called Right at Home, and told the caregiver she could leave. I have not received a call back since this happened, almost a week ago. Luckily we've found another local service that has been very responsive and listens to our needs.

All Seasons Homecare was highly recommended to me by my attorney so I gave them a call. I talked with the owner, Lou Ann. She explained how everything worked and answered all of my questions. I knew after talking to her that my mother-in-law would be in good hands. This place is top notch and so professional. I used All Seasons for 11 days. In that time, all the caregivers showed up on time and gave excellent care to my mother-in-law. At the end of each shift, the caregiver would write up a summary of their visit online, letting me know how my mother-in-law was doing and how the visit went. These notes were very insightful. I appreciate how if there are any problems or questions you can contact Honor, the company All Seasons partners with, 24 hours a day. Very reassuring. Everything went smoothly and I would highly recommend All Seasons/Honor. Are they expensive? Yes. Are they worth it? Absolutely!!!! When you need homecare done right, this is the place to contact! Thanks Lou Ann, Christina, and all the excellent caregivers. You guys are the best!!!

We were given very short notice that mom was going to be released but Lou Ann and Christina met with us and mom to get better acquainted with her and her needs. Shortly after mom got home she had a virtual meeting with a therapist and with no way to conduct this meeting, Christina drove to the home to personally assist with the process. Above and beyond! An urgent staffing issue arose late on a Sunday evening while I was sitting in an airport so I called the 24 hour service number and within minutes I received a call back that the issue was resolved, another example of All Season's commitment to provide the best possible care to their clients and their families. All of the Health Care Professionals assigned to help mom have been very helpful, patient and kind (and mom can be a handful at times:) ) I also very much appreciate the fact that I receive daily reports once the homecare visit is complete that summarizes the visit. Living out of state this is beyond helpful. After reading the reports and finding out about doctor visits or therapist visits that occurred I am able to contact mom and discuss the visit, etc. Without hesitation I would recommend this organization for anyone who is in need of homecare services. The entire organization from Lou Ann and Christina to the personnel answering the 24 hour "hotline" is in my mind, without a doubt, the best homecare service available. Living out of state I am unable to oversee mom's care on a daily basis, but, in my opinion, All Season's professionalism coupled with their compassion reassures me that mom is receiving the next best thing to a family member being there

Our journey with this agency has been a long and meaningful one. The key to any service like this is understanding and finding the right fit with the caregivers, which is no small task since everyone is different. As my parents interacted with a few caregivers over time, they eventually found a team that seemed to connect exceptionally well with them both personally and professionally. Just like in any relationship, effective communication is the linchpin. It fosters the development of a strong and enduring relationship with both the agency and the caregivers. In general, the team is friendly and exhibits good responsiveness. If you're fortunate enough to establish a strong bond with a particular caregiver or caregivers, I'd highly recommend it. It can make all the difference in the world.

This agency was by far the best in quality of care, consistency, commitment, and flexibility in meeting mom's changing needs. They also happen to be the least expensive! Initially, mom needed caregivers just in the morning, Later it was morning and evening. When mom was striving for independence, they supported her by going on her walks with her, taking her to appointment, and fixing some meals. When mom was confused or ill, they notified us quickly and were patient and soothing to our mother. When mom required hospice services and needed round the clock care, the office got us help the same day! Her primary caregiver was with her for years and she supported the orientation of staff new to mom. Mom was safe, happy, loved, and respected until her last breath. The caregivers were flexible in supporting mom's children. With many children are many personalities and with each of us they remained professional and comforting. I cannot say enough good about this agency!
