Via an incredible grant from the Parker Jewish Institute someone will be here while I'm away. The agency, Home Instead, is incredible. The coordinator accompanied today's aide to make introductions. Wednesday's aide stopped by for a long visit. I'm stunned both wanted extensive demonstrations of their responsibilities. I've got a long list of things to finish before I leave. However, I feel comfortable leaving my parents in good hands. If any Long Island people ever need a home health aide Home Instead is top notch.

Getting a call from GSH in W. I slip at 10:30 PM that my mother would be released that night and…read morecome pick her up. I live in Atlanta, so of coarse that was not going to happen. My mother lives alone & unfortunately suffers from debilitating back pain after a fall. Panic setting in I was referred that evening to Amy Recco founder of Friends For Life Homecare. She immediately gave me the names of the social workers at GSH that would delay the release for 12 hours & at same time contacted a caregiver to be at my mothers home when the ambulance dropped her off. Soooo, a week later I write this review to thank Amy & her efficient, empathetic organization and the life changing care my mother is receiving. Thank you for saving my mother! Mike S

An update! The Aide that left me/her company in the lurch (job abandonment) showed up to my house…read morethe following day. I told her I already ended the contract w/the company. She said her boyfriend's car got impounded, so she decided to stay home (but never called the agency directly). I sent her packing and called the agency to ask the same on-call person (who said I would have no help all weekend) why she would send this irresponsible person to my house unannounced AND after I ended the contract. She said the Aide apologized last night via voicemail, so she let her come to my house. I asked why she didn't call to inform me this morning. She said she was busy and forgot! So Monday 9am, I talked to the caseworker (Mrs. H) and mngr (Christine?). They offered a bunch of apologies. They said the 'emergency/on-call person is supposed to call for additional assistance if they can't find an aide (a sorry excuse, if the emergency person does not know basic procedure). I made it clear that I have extensive experience in healthcare management, and I know how many mistakes were made in the handling of my case--their service is abysmal. I made it clear that I would pursue my complaint with the MLTC that same day, and there was no chance to continue my Mother's contract of service. I severed ties immediately. A WEEK LATER ON THE FOLLOWING SATURDAY (12/9) while I was working with an Aide from the new agency, there was a ring at my bell. It was my regular Aide who just returned from vacation. NO ONE AT 'HOME SWEET HOME/CATHIE'S CAR/NYHC' told her what happened, or that the contract was terminated!! They let her take TWO buses to my home for ME to tell her that the agency failed us both again and stood us up with no coverage while she was out. Once she left, I contacted the on-call person (a different woman from last week, more knowledgeable) and told her EVERYTHING that had taken place up until today. She was astounded. She said there was no information left on the case record showing they had lost my account. I told her I called the MLTC on Monday after I spoke to her manager (Christine), and the MLTC had the Medicaid paperwork completed and the new agency/Aide assigned by the Wed or Thurs. This poor communication had to be her manager's fault. I left word that Home Sweet Home is clearly negligent in their training, paperwork AND procedure and have no respect for the few good Aides they may have in their employ. Of course, I never heard back from the manager. As stated--I have experience in healthcare. I can honestly tell you, this is 'keystone cops' type of behavior. I have never seen so many errors in handling a simple case. No one likes to be a victim of someone's job abandonment, but what blows my mind is the obvious poor screening and hiring practices, as well as poor training and communication clearly evident in my case. MULTIPLE, EGREGIOUS errors. I never saw such terrible mismanagement of a routine case in my 12 years in healthcare. If they are this clueless on a day-to-day, what happens in serious situations? Inexcusable!

Initially my Dad was very reluctant to accept help, Sr Helpers met with both my parents and they agreed initially to Mon - Fri 1PM to 5PM. The aide (Christine) who was assigned to my parents could not have been better. My parents really enjoyed having her in their home. Over time Christine became part of our family. On a daily basis we received written feedback on how our parents were doing. This gives great peace of mind with family in multiple states, the daily communication was so appreciated. Due to medical needs my parents needed 24/7 care. I reached out to Peg to let her know the date they would be released from the hospital. Peg was able to put together a very solid team of aides very quickly. Our family was so impressed with the quality of care received and how professional they all were. Covering a 24/7 schedule is not easy but never once did Sr Helpers leave anything uncovered. My parents have recently gone into assisted living and they truly miss the Sr Helpers aides who they got to know so well. I would highly recommend their services.
