Heart of Gold caregivers do such a great job caring for my 98 year old mother. They are so kind, compassionate and gentle with her. I know that my mother is in great hands with them and I never have to worry about anything. My mother said she is very blessed with the wonderful care all the caregivers provide from Heart of Gold! Thank you Heart of Gold!
I’ve had my mom with them since since 2020 and have always felt she’s been in great hands. The staff goes above and beyond and anytime I have questions, the office is always super helpful and attentive, would highly recommend them to anyone in need of a home service.
The Heart of Gold caregivers that took care of my mother were truly exceptional. Their loving care and attention enabled my mother to remain living in her home. Whenever I visited, my mother always looked very well cared for and spoke very highly of her caregivers who also became her friends. When I left, I knew she would be safe and that was a big relief for me. When my mother, at age 98, passed away her main care providers attended her funeral. We all hugged and said good-bye. It showed me how blessed my mother was to have been surrounded by such wonderful people.
