Hear From The Families We Serve

“We have had nothing but excellent care from Home Helpers – first with my mother during her time at home in hospice, and most recently with my father as he is battling dementia. All of the caregivers we have interacted with have been very caring and trustworthy – would highly recommend.”

“I hired Home Helpers to take care of my 90 year old mom. She had been living on her own since my father passed 8 years ago. She was having trouble ambulating and had taken a few falls. We also had Uplifted Care (Hospice, palliative) helping with her medication and bathing etc…

The women who came twice a day really did a fantastic job caring for mom. They got her up mornings and helped her dress. Fixed her breakfast, did light housekeeping and numerous other tasks. In the evening they got her ready for bed and again helped her in ways that allowed me more time to take care of my own household duties. The best part was that many of the girls truly bonded with her and she enjoyed their company very much. If we ever had a concern with anything or anyone it was taken care of immediately.

The entire staff treated her with respect and dignity. Unfortunately we had to send her to an assisted living facility because she needed to have access to care 24/7. I would not hesitate to use Home Helpers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for help caring for a loved one. The communication was great and I appreciate everything they did for mom. I know mom will miss seeing her “girls” and I think many of them will also miss her. We are grateful and appreciate this organization very much.”

“Home Helpers is a great company! They were ready to help when we needed it. They have the most caring and respectful caregivers who provided excellent care for us”

We reached out to Home Helpers in December 2019 for my then 91 yr old mother-in-law. From initial encounter with Home Helpers staff & subsequent 5 day a week care giving(through June 2024) the HH organization never disappointed. Staff were genuine care givers & treated my mother-in-law like family from day one. They were very dependable & even through the Covid era never once failed to provide the same level of care on a daily basis. It was with a heavy heart that we had to make decision to place my mother-in-law into a full time care facility but the gracious care she received over the five yrs allowed her to stay in her own home much longer than many. Our family would recommend Home Helpers to others without hesitation.

“Home Helpers has the most kind and caring staff I’ve ever seen. The caregivers are passionate about the care they give for not only the people they help but their families as well. It is very apparent the office staff does everything they can to give everyone the best experiences.”

“I have enjoyed this experience to help others manage day to day tasks and improve their quality of life. Just like working for Home Helpers has improved the quality of my life! The office staff is knowledgeable and helpful and most importantly, respectful. They are flexible with my own schedule and try really hard to create a healthy work life balance for us. I enjoy the work and have a good support system from the office!”

“We used Home Helpers services for 2 years and from day 1 both Sara and Kay were always available to answer questions, address changes in schedules, and follow up on quality of care. You never will wait for a call back or be put on hold. Both the company and caregivers were professional, prompt, pleasant, kind and thoughtful. The caregivers were always conscious of patient safety, loving and warmhearted. Their services are above the rest.”

“This is the Best Home Healthcare Agency I have ever worked for. They care about their Client’s and Their people 100%. I would for sure recommend working here.”

“Home Helpers Management has been great with working with situations that arise. Have great support systems. I had seen Home helpers and wanted to change careers. I wish I would of made the change sooner. I recommend working here! They really create an atmosphere that feels like family. I find the job very rewarding.”

“When we needed care right away for my Mother I didn’t know where to begin. Then I heard about Home Helpers. We are so thankful that we did! The staff was incredibly patient and understanding for my Mothers needs. Especially knowing that most of us live out of state and had no idea how to care for her without a concern. I believe my Mother would agree that they were very helpful and trusting for all of her needs. Her last and final days were with Home Helpers and her caregiver, Linda, and she spoke highly of her every time she was with her. I’m very thankful for the service and all of their time and effort. Sadly it wasn’t long enough but I know if it wasn’t for them we probably wouldn’t have had as much time with her. Thank you to all the staff and Linda, for loving and caring for my Mom.”

“I am a Caregiver that has been with Home Helpers for a few years now. It has been a very rewarding job, I have had the pleasure of meeting many clients and their families. Kay and Sara have been wonderful to work for, very helpful, accommodating, and understanding.”

“Such caring and wonderful staff. They really do a wonderful job providing the extra care your loved ones need to help maintain their independent living.”

“Kay Jurica, the owner of Home Helpers of Bourbonnais is one of the most compassionate business owners I know. Her clients are not customers to her but family. The staff she hires are carbon copies of her. She puts people first. If my folks were still alive there is no one else I would hire to help take care of their needs.”

“Home Helpers gave my father, in his last days was heart moving. They performed their duties at the height of the pandemic and took every precaution to make sure that he stayed safe. They gave him care and companionship that was top notch.”

“I appreciate that the office staff at Home Helpers of Bourbonnais calls me and checks on me. A lot of times I get an answering machine, but they call me back.”

“Home Helpers of Bourbonnais has supplied wonderful care to our loved one. I’m so grateful they introduced us to the Automated Medication Dispenser. The dispenser can be set to go off up to four times a day, with an alarm to alert our loved one that it’s time to take their medication. Peace of mind for a small fee to ensure medication is taken as directed!”

“I am very impressed with the quality of care and love that Mom and Dad are receiving from Home Helpers of New Lenox, particularly Trish. She’s been here every morning since I arrived, and the care she exhibits for my parents is obvious. They have a very easy relationship with her and are relaxed and happy to have her in the house. There were several instances when I offered to help Mom with something, and she would say, “that’s okay, Trish does that for me”! As I said, the caring is obvious. I am so impressed with Trish and I feel much better about leaving knowing that Mom and Dad are in her care. Thank you, Home Helpers.”
