“I hired Assisting Hands to provide an aide for my 95 year old mother several hours a week. The person they sent not only became my mother's aide, she became her friend. She helped my mother in countless number of ways, at the same time treating her with respect and dignity and caring. In addition, the times that my mother fell ill and needed 24/7 care, Assisting Hands provided caring, competent aides to be there for her day and night. When my mom passed away a couple months ago 2 months short of her 98th birthday, not only was I in touch with her regular aide, but also the owner of the company and the person who did the scheduling for Assisting Hands (who I only spoke to, but never met) made sure to contact me to express their condolences. I could not have asked for better care for my mom and highly recommend this company.”
