Care Advantage of Newport News, VA
4.7
The administrative team were all very friendly and most of the time our loved one received really good care. Some of the care givers were more communicative than others, and gave a little but more care but we do understand most of them were probably worn out.
Senior Helpers - Charlottesville, VA
4.4
The quality of the care has been very good, but recently we have been frustrated with the restrictions around the care givers, like what they can and cannot do. Also the communication has not been the best, that could use improvement, but the value for cost is very fair.
Caring Hands Healthcare Solutions, LLC - Fredericksburg
4.0
It's only been a short time so my review isn't very extensive. So far my experience with the staff has been pleasant. They are very friendly and my Dad is starting to warm up to the little by little. I would definitely recommend based on the little experience we've had with them so far.
