I've used several agencies for my care at my home. BrightStar Care is obviously the best of all that I am familiar with. The quality of the caregivers they sent out (with one sad exception) is much better than the other agencies I have used. They are not the least expensive, but I guess "you get what you pay for".
One caregiver of special note was Cameron. Without going into details, she was definitely over qualified for the job. It seemed like it was a calling for her rather than just a job. Always upbeat, friendly, professional and helpful - truly a caring person. She often didn't wait for me to ask for help, she was watchful and anticipated the need.
Other caregivers from BrightStar have some or many of these positive attributes, but Cameron had all of them and more.
I anticipate using Brightstar again in the future. Even if I don't meet Cameron again, I expect a good experience.
A piece of advice: if you can afford it, you might not want to look for the cheapest provider you can find when considering caregivers. I learned this the hard way.
Angelina is a caregiver in every way. She brings a warm smile and an outgoing personality to her work, and we are truly blessed to have her assistance.
She is incredibly observant and creative; she anticipates and takes care of my husband’s needs without any instruction. We are both very happy and relieved to have her with us.
Best regards,

I enjoyed the company of my caregiver LaToya today. She made sure I took my meds and we went out for multiple walks. Thank you brightstar for sending her.
My husband is recovering from a sickness, and today we have a wonderful surprise! We have Latoya helping us today, and take care of his meals, blood pressure, breakfast, snack, & great lunch!
Also help us packing, since we’re moving next month, to be close to our son.
It was a blessing having her today!
She is very attentive, professional, funny and her help today was a relief, since I don’t have help with my husband, and today, she took care of both of us.
I want to thank Brightstar for sending professionals with skills and education.
Also thanks to Megan for her excellent work, and helping my hubby. Blessings for all the Team, workers, etc

I got sick since October, in and out of the hospital, all kind of tests, MRI, sonograms, Endoscopy, and don’t show anything, but I couldn’t eat, drink or keep anything in my stomach.
My Neurologist discovered what was the cause of my illness, and it was a medicine that I was taking for Alzaimer’s. Lost more than 55 pounds, very wicked, can’t stand by myself, and Brightstar change my life, and send professionals, to help me to get stronger, cooking delicious meals, and a lot of care and help me a lot.
I’m very grateful with the VA because they’re the ones to start my health care with Brightstar.
Love the workers, their professionalism, and they’re prepared to help in any way they can
Thanks Brightstar for help me in the recovery to feel better, and with all that care, I’m gaining weight!!!!!!
I’m feeling much better, and happier with their help!
Brightstar is one of the BEST

My wife had a right hip replacement. During her recovery she knew she would need help for recovery and daily living activities. She spoke to Dan at Brightstar, was impressed and hired his service.
When she arrived home from the hospital, Dan sent out the most wonderful caregivers. They were all truly lovely people. We felt like they were family. We had wonderful conversations and interactions. We are so glad to have met them all. They became an integral part of our family for the week after surgery. They were here day and night. We have no adequate words to express our gratitude to the following: Bajane P, Amy S, Pricilla L, Claudia M, Kimberly G, Monica H. and Estefania.
I hope I remembered all of their names because not one of them was anything less than extraordinary. My wife who could have been thinking about the pain of surgery was so distracted by the delightful conversations and laughing that she hardly needed any pain medication. It almost seemed like she was at a teen slumber party.
Thank you Brightstar!

Brightstar’s team was always there for Jack and I when we needed them. As time progressed and Jack’s condition progressed I could count on them for the care we needed. Everyone was kind and supportive to both of us. Taking care of an ill person is not easy but they were always there with a smile and never complained about what they were expected to do or expected to clean up.
I could never have been able to take care of Jack, like I wanted him taken care of, without Brightstar’s help.

Sophia is a great help to me each week. She is sweet, smart and responsible. Her visits help keep me focused, and on task. She was an immense help through the holidays. I wouldn't have been able to do it without her!! Five star treatment.
