I wanted to thank you all for the years of care you gave to both my mom and my dad. I’m sure there were some difficult moments, but we had confidence and trust that in you to give my parents, especially my dad, the compassion and care that was required. My dad enjoyed the company on his caregivers and it allowed all of us to be secure in knowing he was well taken care of. We felt relief and comfort when we had to leave, knowing that he was in good hands. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart – thank you.Thank you for always being there, and still being there to help whenever you can.

In-home Caregiver for Denice Clarkson

I’m beyond grateful for the help and expertise Melanie Carvalho provided over the past year, which was hands down the most challenging of the 15 years I’ve cared for Mom. From her skilled and patient direct care… to her very perceptive and objective take on many aspects of my mom’s situation, including our family’s complex dynamics… to spot-on referrals for additional support and services… I couldn’t have come through without her. Melanie’s warm, outgoing style informed all her efforts and immediately put everyone at ease, most importantly my mother. She became a strong advocate and backbone for both me and Mom, and a skilled negotiator when it came to dealing with conflicting family influences. Her direct, no-nonsense approach was perfectly balanced by sensitivity and diplomacy. In many respects, I consider Melanie an integral part of the family who shared my goal of providing nothing but optimal care and support for Mom. I highly recommend her and Always Best Care, without hesitation.

I just wanted to send you a note to let you know that I am extremely satisfied with the services your agency has provided to our family. Always Best Care was very helpful and patient in assisting me through the whole elder-care process. More importantly, they sent us Diana as a caregiver who, I must say, was truly amazing in the level of care she provided my father. He improved dramatically under her care and she greatly eased the strain we all felt trying to take care of him ourselves. She went above and beyond the call of duty in taking care of my father and she did it all with a pleasant disposition which is such a positive when dealing with psychologically difficult circumstances.

We have been using the services of Always Best Care for about two years now. The two persons who came every morning and thrice a week at night were very good. Their personality were caring, warm and they brought the best out from my husband. The one man that came two nights a week was alright but his personality was not that good. He does what he needed to do but he did not bring out the best of my husband. However, the rate is expensive nowadays, I wish they would lower it.
