Pat and Wendy have been caring for my mom for about 2 months now. I really can not say enough to express my appreciation for the services they have provided for my mom. My sister and I both live out of town and my dad passed away 6 years ago. Recently due to medical issues with my mom we have placed my mom in assisted care. We needed help with getting her to appointments and personal errands. They have been there ANY time she needs outside assistance. They have a true servants heart. Always caring for my mom as if it was their own mom. They communicate with her about her needs and concerns and address them with the appropriate person. Whether it is a doctor’s visit, the assisted care facility, the bank etc. They always go over and beyond the call of duty always keeping my moms needs #1. They are extremely communicative and I always feel informed of everything going on. Recently my mom had to go to the emergency room and they stayed with her while there and after being admitted to the hospital they have stayed with her at the hospital. They stay on top of all information from doctors and make sure everything is followed through with. I honestly can’t say enough about what wonderful people they are and the peace my sister and I have about her care. I would 100% recommend this service to anyone.

This company is the best. When my dad was ill we talked to several companies, but went with ABC and we are glad we did. Mitzi and Wendy were great, and all the care givers were outstanding. When we needed to set up 24/7 care for my dad Mitzi had set it up in the next day, and Wendy herself came out the first morning to cover a shift and make sure we had everything we needed (and Mitzi offered to come out that night if I needed her). She even went and got a newspaper for my dad when his wasn't delivered that day. I highly recommend this company. I can't say enough nice things about them. My dad passed away while the care giver was there, and they handled it so wonderfully and professionally. Wendy called me to make sure my sister and I were doing okay. Such wonderful people, and so easy to work with.
