Key Review Excerpts

Be aware! This company is littered with staff that steal from clients, we suspect they did not feed her enough food, and purchased expensive stuff on her Verizon account that she is responsible for.

Family member of client · 2024☆☆☆☆

Horrible company, very unprofessional and manager are selfish and rude. They don’t care about the staff and the client aren’t being taken care of I feel so bad . The staff sleep on the shifts

Former staff or observer · 2024☆☆☆☆

This company seems very sketchy. Have emailed and called and no one replies. Also know a current client and she's said many times how bad communications are and that it's all about the money and nothing more.

External observer · 2026★★☆☆☆
