On April 27th, Mom was brought home on hospice with in-care services from BrightStar to begin that evening. On May 8th, she passed away peacefully in the loving presence of family with BrightStar there to assist.
There were many nice caregivers that tended to Mom, but one person stood out as a bright star to the family - Lovie. She was the caregiver assigned when Mom was brought home, and coincidentally she was the caregiver present when Mom passed. Her beautiful smile and caring spirit were not lost on Mom who said in a whisper “she’s pretty”. What we had no way of knowing was the level of comfort she would give to my Aunt as she went about her professional duties lovingly caring for Mom. I can still hear Lovie greeting Mom with “Hi Carrie; open your beautiful eyes”. Unfortunately Mom rarely responded, but we know that she felt Lovie’s calm and caring presence.
On behalf of the Cameron/Singleton family, we wish to express our heartfelt gratitude to BrightStar for helping us during our time of need, and we wish to express our sincere appreciation to Lovie for exemplifying the love in caregiver. ❤️

Over the past several years our family has depended on Bright Star for caregiving services. Recently, our needs increased rather fast and furiously, which was overwhelming to me. BUT, John, Director of Operations and Tinesha, Scheduling Manager, put me at ease immediately. They calmly, efficiently and hospitably shared best options for moving forward—offering cost effective scheduling and brilliant matchmaking. One week ago I was so stressed and today I am incredibly thankful for their guidance and counseling.

BrightStar Care of Central DuPage has really come the rescue, when I am not able to accompany my mom to a doctor appt, as I have my own busy family and live far away. Leigha G. accompanied my mom to a doctor appt end of November. My mom told me she was happy to have met her, as she was so caring and respectful. She felt she really connected with her, even though it was a short time. Thank you to Leigha G. and BrightStar for offering great care when a family member is not able to be there in person.
BrightStar Care of Central DuPage came to us on a recommendation for in home health care for a family member on Hospice. We did not know what to do, what to expect or how to go through the Hospice/home health care process. Diane and her staff were amazing from the start with detailed explanations to all our questions, including helping us understand the various options for home healthcare, and the financial impact associated with each option.
Our needs were ever changing and BrightStar accommodated our EVERY request with quick responses and high professionalism. Diane and her staff made our family feel like a priority with every request. When our need required a 24/7 live-in caregiver, they provided us with the most compassionate, loving, gentleman we could have hoped for. Our caregiver, Ralph was a perfect match and he felt like part of the family immediately! BrightStar Care of Central DuPage comes with the highest level of recommendation from our family.
Bright Star never fails to deliver great referral, options of caregivers and support. They provide educations to families going through care for seniors that family members are new to the experience. Wonderful service provider.

BrightStar is amazing. We have used them after surgeries for care and also on weekends. My 94 yr old mother needed someone to help on a short term basis. Brightstar staff was so independent, thoughtful and helpful to her. They made sure she stayed social, went outside, downtown to shop, and did her exercises. They even hooked up my laptop so she could watch her great granddaughter graduate. Above and beyond. We only had one person we were concerned about and when we expressed our concern, BrightStar had a new caretaker come immediately, no hassle at all. Everyone we met cares, is highly qualified / certified and works with the family. We will definitely use them again as my mom needs them.
