“We cannot express enthusiastically enough the quality of service we received from ABC. With only four days notice, Charmaine found us an excellent carer who offered care for 12-16 hours per week for almost six months during recovery from medical challenges. ABC's care-person was perfectly suited to our needs, which included light house work, rehab exercises for my wife, driving my wife to appointments, and companionship. ABC's oversight and tracking, each day, and by week, has been exemplary--quite comprehensive and systematic. ABC also showed considerable flexibility with any changes in weekly hours or days as these occurred over the months. If ever we have similar needs, we will go to ABC in a heartbeat.”

“I am a current client of this provider They help around the home. I like the caregiver they sent to help me.”

“My mother-in-law lives by herself in a city about 800 miles from my wife and I. She has children and grandchildren nearby who visit her often. But they are not caregivers and I realized after my father-in-law died that it was top priority to find at-home care for her. She's in good health but has issues with her vision, her hearing, and her mobility. It was essential that we hire caregivers who were reliable, knowledgeable, experts at what they do and able to take care of her in a manner that was acceptable to her. We had used the services of Always Best Care when my father-in-law was still with us. There was no question about using their services for my mother-in-law. I can't say enough about all they bring to their care for my mother-in-law. Most important is that the care givers always show up on time. Their reliability is unmatched as far as I am concerned. Living so far away, my wife and I never have to worry about whether the caregiver is with her. I understand that emergencies can get in the way with scheduling people for jobs in the service and health industries. The rare time or two when her regular caregiver could not make an appointment, Always Best Care sent a substitute who was familiar with all that was supposed to be done. And she was on time too. Another reason we rely on and appreciate the care provided by ABC is what my mother-in-law thinks about her caregivers. I often ask her about these visits and what she thinks of them. She always raves about her caregivers. Besides any health needs that she has, she always mentions how thorough the person is. I think that Always Best Care looks at their version of healthcare as holistic. It's not just her medications and health issues. Her caregivers always ask her about how her days have been going. They ask about her eating, her sleeping, her walking inside and outside her place and her attitude towards her life. Is she still enjoying listening to audiobooks and watching TV? Are there issues with playing games with her grandkids? These are all important aspects of her care and as members of her family, we want her to still enjoy life. We want what's best for her and my wife and I both insist that Always Best Care is what's best for her.”

“Always Best Care has done an AMAZING job taking care of my mother. The caregivers are so kind especially Regina! We love ABC”

“Charmaine and her team did a wonderful job during a very difficult time. We had used other caregivers but did not have a lot of success with them. Always Best Care provided caregivers who not only performed everyday tasks but did so with compassion and a kind heart. We had complete confidence in their caregivers handling of our mother’s needs. We highly recommend Charmaine and her staff!! Colleen and John Washburn”

“I am a current client of this provider She has pretty severe dementia, so I really can't tell. She doesn't seem worse. She is getting more social life because of them. So far, they have been very supportive and available to talk to.”

“I am a past client of this provider She was in a skilled nursing facility. They asked us to have 24/7 care for her. It was a relief to have someone caring for her. They could not change her, though. They did the best that they could. We liked that they went beyond just providing the home care. They were reaching out to their connections in the field to help us find a place for her to live. They were very caring.”

“My aunt broke a hip and three weeks later broke her femur. From the very beginning administration and caregivers were professional and pleasant. The caregivers spent 10 hours a day/seven days a week with my aunt for three months. They kept her safe and entertained and assisted with several trips to the doctor. They advocated for her at her memory facility when her bedrail came off, when she needed pain meds, and when she needed help at mealtimes. If we every need care again, I would call them again without hesitation.”

“I am a past client of this provider Charmaine, the owner of Always Best Care, is amazing. Before my dad needed a caregiver, I asked Charmaine if she would meet with him to describe the types of services they provide. My dad instantly loved her. She spent a long time with him describing the services they provide but also recognizing how difficult this situation is and showing great compassion. When we needed her after he broke his hip, her agency quickly stepped into action and for months, Charmaine provided my dad with excellent caregivers and the quality of service I had hoped for. She gave my dad and my whole family peace of mind. I highly recommend Charmaine and her agency.”

“I am a past client of this provider When my very independent Father broke his hip two years ago, we didn't know where to turn for care for him in his two bedroom apt. He insisted that he wanted home care. We found Always Best Care. Charmaine worked with me and my sisters to provide round the clock care for our Dad. They did their level best to find the best caregivers for Dad. When something wasn't satisfactory, Charmaine addressed the issues and found other caregivers for Dad. We found two amazing caregivers who still work for Dad two years later. We recently bought out their contracts from ABC after two years of working with them. It is so hard to find good care for your loved one. ABC has served us well and we loved the caregivers so much that we kept them as our permanent caregivers. The service is not cheap, but they are reliable, bonded and insured and you will have peace of mind as you navigate care for your loved one. Highly recommended. They care about their clients and they were always reachable if we had any problems.”

One of the caregivers made a serious mistake. However, after everything was straightened out, they have been great. For four hours, one day a week, a caregiver comes and helps my mother who has Alzheimer's take a bath and gives her a manicure. The caregivers are good. They were conveniently located. I went and had a personal meeting with the owner of the company and thought she was very impressive. She then came to the home to meet my mother and my parents; we liked that. We thought that was professional and helpful. From then on, we have worked with a scheduler and the caregiver. I think it's a very reliable and well-run agency, and we're very pleased at this point with the service.”
