Billing and payee handling draws complaints
A recurring concern is surprise charges or payee-related fees.
Some reviewers warn that the company charges for additional help and may not explain extra costs upfront. Others specifically call out payee fees and say they were not handled as expected. These comments are presented as financial and administrative issues rather than changes in day-to-day clinical care.

6 reviews mention this
Safety and communication concerns appear
A subset of reviews raises concerns about safety, cleanliness, and responsiveness.
Several critical reviews describe incidents they felt reflected poor safety practices or unsafe behavior during visits. Others focus on communication breakdowns, such as not receiving referrals, not following through with planned visits, or caregivers not documenting what happened. A smaller number of reviews also mention dissatisfaction with how office staff handled concerns when problems were reported.
