Always Best Care came into our lives when we most needed them. We needed them to start immediately and in a situation that we were managing from afar. They took proper safety (& covid) precautions, scrambled to get providers for my father-in-law with little advance warning and most importantly, provided loving, trustworthy and compassionate care and communication during my father-in-law's last days. What a gift to be able to provide such care in tough times. THANK YOU!

I have been working with Always Best Care Senior Services for the past two months following knee surgery. I have been fortunate in being assigned Elena Martinez the entire time. She has been excellent in meeting all of my expectations, from assisting me in following the recommendations of the physical therapist, and my physician. She ensures I move around the house using the walker more than the wheelchair, has found an easy way for me to get into the shower. Elena does light housekeeping and laundry. She is also a great cook. I would recommend Elena for anyone one looking for a caregiver who is concerned about the patient and doing what is best to improving their health and well being I am very pleased with her services and happy Elena was and still is assigned to me.

The caregivers are of fine quality with regard to patient care and respect towards the family. Besides caring for the patient they seem to enjoy helping with household chores. They are always on time and at times stay longer when the need arises. I always receive the help and answers I need with professional mannerism when I call the office. Veronica & Janie are very compassionate & so happy to have them. Janie has been with us over a year and has become part of our family. I can say with all sincerity that ABC is very fortunate to have Janie and so are we.

To Whom It May Concern: I did use the company that you recommended, Always Best Care of Desert Cities. I worked with Nannette Carino who is absolutely wonderful. Due to the Covid and the unknown, I was quite upset and overwhelmed. Without Nannette's assistance I do not think it would have been so successful. She started helping me before she even knew if I was going to use her company. She shows compassion and understanding. She was able to set things up for me so that at discharge from the hospital, I would have assistance. My husband did like the daytime aid, Elena Martinez. She was understanding as my husband and I had difficulty having someone in the home for 12 hours. We were not sure about all that she could do. I had difficulty letting go. He had difficulty letting someone besides me help him. Elena was always telling me to sit back and let her do the work. That was very difficult for me due to my personality. I think she felt at home here and was kind and caring to my husband. If we were to need services in the future, we would probably request Elena. My husband is one of the lucky ones that fought through this even though he has hemiplegia which made it more difficult. It will take some time for his strength to come back but I know it will. Thank you.

Always Best Care has been my saving grace over the last week. My grandfather was brought home for hospice care this week and we scrambled to find some help for him and my grandmother, who is in the early stages of dementia. She has been fairly unreasonable through this process and downright mean at times, but Norma has been so accommodating and the staff have been so much more patient than anyone should have to be. My grandmother has yelled and screamed and Norma has stayed calm and caring and done everything possible to make sure everyone is taken care of and safe. While we probably won't continue services for long, because my grandmother is hellbent on getting her own help, I would recommend this company 10 times over. Their ability to work with patients in the hardest of mental states in unmatched. There is no way to thank them enough.

I don't usually write reviews, but when an individual in an organization goes way beyond what is normally expected, I felt compelled to do so. I highly recommend Always Best Care in Palm Desert for home caregivers. Especially Leslie Boettcher, their Care Coordinator. I can't say enough good things about her. She went WAY beyond the usual duties of her job to ensure my elderly Aunt with post-stroke dementia was well taken care of regardless of whether she was in the hospital, at home or in a memory care facility. She was in constant contact with family members and showed great compassion while also attending to a myriad of details, many of which were not even her job. She even visited my Aunt in the hospital and helped get her home safely. Always Best Care is indeed lucky to have Leslie and so are we.
