    Review

    Home Care Assistance is a company that truly cares about their clients. One reviewer mentioned that they had a private caregiver for four days a week and was disappointed with the previous company they used for the other three days. After doing some research, they decided to give Home Care Assistance a try and were thrilled with the results. The caregivers were described as wonderful, caring, and conscientious. The scheduling staff was also praised for their excellent work.

    Another reviewer expressed their satisfaction with the service provided by Home Care Assistance. They mentioned that the caregivers were friendly and professional, while the administrative staff was easy to work with. It seems that everything has gone well so far.

    A third reviewer was referred to Home Care Assistance when their mother was coming home from Scripps hospital. They were out of town and had to organize everything remotely. However, Home Care Assistance proved to be extremely helpful and professional during this challenging time. A care manager assessed the mother on the same day and organized her safe return home with 24-hour care initially, which was then gradually reduced to a manageable schedule.

    The fourth review highlighted the positive experience of working with Home Care Assistance compared to other home health care agencies. The reviewer had dealt with theft, incompetence, poorly trained staff, billing issues, and horrendous customer service from previous agencies. However, Home Care Assistance stood out as an organization that knows how to match clients with suitable staff members and thoroughly screens their employees.

    In another review, a person shared their experience of hiring Home Care Assistance for weekend care for their father. When their regular caregiver couldn't come in due to illness one morning, they panicked but immediately called the agency for help. The staffing person on call assured them that coverage would be arranged promptly, and within 40 minutes, a caregiver from Home Care Assistance arrived at their father's house. The reviewer highly praised the agency's compassion and customer service in this exceptional situation.

    Lastly, someone mentioned attending a cooking class at the Home Care Assistance office in La Jolla, which demonstrated how to prepare healthy food for seniors. This impressed them, as their experience with a home care agency in Canada did not offer such additional services. The director of the La Jolla office was described as friendly and helpful, and the reviewer had no issues with communication from the agency.

    In conclusion, Home Care Assistance has received positive feedback from various clients. They are praised for their caring and conscientious caregivers, excellent scheduling staff, professionalism, flexibility, quick action in emergencies, additional services like cooking classes and yoga, as well as compassionate customer service. It seems that those who have used Home Care Assistance highly recommend their services for anyone seeking professional and competent care for their loved ones.
