I am a professional social worker and I have had a lot of experience with agencies. This is the best agency I have ever seen. N.O., Northbrook, IL.
In fact, for the last 5 years we have been ranked as One of the Top In-Home Care Agencies in America and were selected to be the Alzheimer s Foundation of America Cares Affiliate Office for the entire Chicago-area. Our Senior Gems Alzheimer's & Dementia Program and our Parkinson's Program help ensure the best care possible for those with these diseases. All of our caregivers speak English and are bonded and insured Senior Helpers employees so you don't have to worry about paying their taxes or unemployment or worker's comp insurance, and if they are unable to make it to your shift we find someone to replace them that day. We are licensed by the Illinois Department of Public Health and fully insured. Each caregiver undergoes a series of interviews, skill reviews, background checks and training--far beyond state requirements. And each client has the assistance of a highly experienced Client Care Manager to help ensure you receive the best care possible. We help ensure the independence, respect, dignity--care & comfort of every client. We offer more than 50 services including; bathing, dressing, walking, toileting, feeding, meal preparation, housekeeping, laundry, pet care, driving, medicine reminders, errands, exercise assistance, plant care, accompanying to doctor's appointments, companionship and more. There are no minimum hours to be concerned about. Split, overnight and live-in schedules are all available, and there is a simple 24 hour service cancellation policy. I appreciate how kind & sensitive you were to my mother during such a difficult, stressful time. From the bottom of my heart I would recommend you to anybody who needs a caregiver. AH
