Overall Review of SYNERGY Home Care of Baltimore
caveat6 reviews mention this
Care coverage can be inconsistent
Several reviewers describe missed schedules, delays, or unreliable weekend coordination.
A recurring concern is whether care shows up when it’s scheduled. Some reviewers report aides not arriving as planned or shifts ending early, and others describe difficulty reaching the office when issues came up. One family member also described the impact of missed medication and missed support during the time care was not being provided. A separate review also calls out slow follow-through when care was being assessed.

Medication and ADL help raised issues
Reviewers mention problems with medication support and day-to-day assistance for dementia care.
While some families praise dementia support, other reviews describe breaks in medication prompting and day-to-day help. One reviewer specifically relates missed medication days to a hospital episode, and another says no one came and the person was left without food or meds. Other negative feedback also points to care that was not carried out correctly, alongside complaints about responsiveness when concerns were raised. Taken together, residents’ families often emphasize the importance of medication and ADL consistency.

Management responsiveness comes up often
Communication and follow-up are described as strong by many families, though not all experiences match.
Some reviewers say the management team is responsive and supportive, including check-ins and quick help when concerns arise. Several describe good communication with the office and being able to get attention when they had questions or needed changes. Others, however, describe being dismissed, dealing with unreachable voicemail, or seeing delays in follow-through during assessment. Overall, the reviews suggest responsiveness is a key part of the experience, with results varying by situation.
caveat3 reviews mention this
Meal support and cooking ability vary
A few reviewers say the agency struggled to meet cooking and meal-related needs.
One family says they requested caregivers who could cook and found that almost none could. Another reviewer describes meal support being missed when scheduled help did not arrive, including the person being left without food. A separate review also connects day-to-day assistance expectations—like ensuring the person eats—with the level of care provided. These comments point to meal and cooking support as an area to confirm in advance.

Caregiver burnout is a common issue resulting from the intense physical, emotional, and mental demands of caregiving, leading to symptoms like fatigue and social withdrawal. To prevent burnout, caregivers should recognize early warning signs and implement self-care strategies, seek support, and prioritize their own well-being alongside that of those they care for.
Caregiver exhaustion, or burnout, stems from the relentless demands of caregiving, leading to emotional and physical depletion characterized by stress, frustration, and neglect of personal needs. Addressing this burden is essential to prevent long-term consequences, with early recognition and support being crucial for caregivers to maintain balance and implement self-care.
Hospice care at home provides specialized end-of-life support that focuses on comfort and dignity for individuals with life-limiting illnesses, offering a range of services including medical management, emotional and spiritual support, and logistical assistance tailored to the family's needs. It involves collaboration to create individualized care plans and extends to bereavement support after a loved one's passing.
