I enjoy working here because I am known and cared for by the staff. Whenever I have had a concern regarding my employment, work dynamics, and/or my client's care, I am listened to and respected. This is the first home care agency I've worked for where I've felt like my voice is heard. I have gotten to work with several clients and stay with them for years--continually building deep and lasting relationship with people I have come to know and love. I continue to work here because I believe we really can make a difference and provide the best care.

We have found Always Best Care and are happy with them. There was some difficulty with availability of people and scheduling. One of the caregivers made a serious mistake. However, after everything was straightened out, they have been great. For four hours, one day a week, a caregiver comes and helps my mother who has Alzheimer's take a bath and gives her a manicure. The caregivers are good. They were conveniently located. I went and had a personal meeting with the owner of the company and thought she was very impressive. She then came to the home to meet my mother and my parents; we liked that. We thought that was professional and helpful. From then on, we have worked with a scheduler and the caregiver. I think it's a very reliable and well-run agency, and we're very pleased at this point with the service.
