“I like the in-service training because they reach out to me to make sure I am knowledgeable. The [office staff] are grateful. They have packages and make sure I have my stuff to work with like gloves and hand sanitizer. They reach out to me and say the office is always open to me. I have good communication with the staff. I get a note whether it’s verbal or on the phone and I am welcome to go to the office. They send me texts and I always get reminders. They remind me the day before I work.”
Jean, caregiver
“I would rate Assisting Hands higher if I could because they treat me as a friend, they are very nice. The office staff is like my sisters and my brothers, anytime I have a problem I just call them and they help me.”
