What Some of Our Participants Have Said

"My caregiver provided me with the help I needed without fail at a time that I just couldn't care for my Mom anymore because of work demands.  Because of her great service, I was able to keep Mom at home with me and she pulled our family together. How much better it was having Mom with us in my home rather than having to spend just a few hours a week with her during visiting hours trying to remember all the things that happened since the last time we saw her!"

Mary

"Although I was the last one to admit I needed some help around here, I am the first to confess you all were right!  Thanks so much for truly caring about me and for all the little things (and not so little too) you do for me around the house.  I will forever remain grateful!"
