Hiring BrightStar Care was the best decision our family ever made. Dan, Susie, Kathy and the office team spent a lot of time really getting to know mom and putting together the most amazing care team - a dream team! Jessica, our lead caregiver, is amazing! She and mom have developed such a great relationship. Mom calls her "my buddy." Her BFF. Jessica is sharp, smart, fun, and funny and has such great energy and patience. She's very experienced with dementia and helps our family understand what to do in certain circumstances which is so helpful and supportive to us. Jessica keeps mom active and social every day. They go for drives, to the movies, to lunch at mom's favorite restaurant, and for walks. They have so much fun together and they are always laughing. Jessica is a true gem and we are so lucky to have her! Tara, our other daytime caregiver is very bubbly and cheerful. She wakes mom up to Frank Sinatra and other nostalgic 50's music which my mom loves. She dances with mom and they watch tv together, go on outings, go down to the harbor to watch the seals. She fondly calls mom "Betty Boop." Tara is very special to mom and our family! Maria, our nighttime caregiver is so sweet and calm. Mom feels so comfortable with her and they have a wonderful nighttime routine where Maria tucks her in bed so sweetly and cozy. Maria reassures mom that she's right outside the door if mom needs her during the night. They even have a cute little dance routine they do when she walks mom back to bed during the night. Maria is a blessing to us. We are so grateful to BrightStar and our amazing care team that are helping us and mom to live a long and happy life. XXOO Betty & Family

Our dad has received care from several Bright Star caregivers for the past few months. The team works so beautifully to provide support and ease the load on family. We know we can count on speedy responses from owners and scheduling (Megan). My dad has especially appreciated care from LaToya and Adi. They have both been flexible with the shifting schedule. They are competent and professional. Adi has been his primary care provider and she is cheerful and personal and keeps our dad hoppin’ with engaging conversations, board games (we can’t get him to play but she can), football team rivalry. She brings sunshine and fresh energy into his world whenever she shows up. Bright Star works directly with the VA on our behalf to coordinate coverage for our father’s care so we don’t have to. If you’re on the fence about whether or not to choose Bright Star, I think your search is over. PS We have worked with other agencies…these guys have it dialed in.

Yesenia is not just a caregiver. She is a friend, a mentor, and a steady presence in my life. She helps me with my own care and supports my kids with such love and grace. She is very protective of me and my children, not only in terms of safety but also emotionally and in the way she shows up with steady encouragement. Her care extends beyond her hours with us, leaving me with more energy and peace for the evenings with my kids.

We are so grateful fortunate to have her in our lives, and I am deeply grateful for her heart, her kindness, and the way she supports and shows up for our family.

Unfortunately, I developed a condition that had me bedridden for several days before I found care service. I have used care services before for my wife who was sick for a long time, but this company is so much better than anybody I’ve ever used before. I think I may have to keep them forever, well at least hopefully until I can get back on my feet. What wonderful caring people. All of the staff and caregivers couldn’t be better. 5stars

We were thrilled when BrightStar Care was able to fulfill our needs so quickly with a Home Health Aide. Peytience is excellent! She is aware of my husband's needs and consistently cares for him with respect and compassion! I am at ease when I leave because I know she will keep him safe. Above all, she comes with a smile! Thank you Peytience!

We hired this company almost a year ago after the last company we had for my mom didn't really work out that great. I waited a bit to post this review because I wanted to see how things were going to go and let me tell you this company deserves 10 stars! Our caregiver is Maria and she takes such good care of my mom, engaging her in activities that my mom loves to do, helps her with physical therapy, bathing, and and anything else she may need. She really goes above and beyond for my parents and I'm so grateful that she was the one that was sent to our home. Thank you so much Maria and bright star for the wonderful care that you've given my parents.

I can count on BrightStar in my time of need. Usually i use them M-F because I take care of my parents on weekend's and night. I needed surgery and they were able to get me help for 5 weeks. Everyday morning thru night. Hailey has been here and been a great help. Asking what she can do around house to help.
