![]() ![]() That’s how I see it.įrom my own personal experiences as with Bud and Sheila-they have treated Sam and I with compassion, with respect and most important to preserved the dignity of each of us. When Bud Hollowell asked me to write a letter of recommendation for their Flamingo Homecare business I said YES!! Bud and Sheila have provided homecare services for myself and husband Sam who is 93 years old…įrom Day 1 they have shown how much they care for people-they have compassion-they want to help improve your quality of life within the environment you live in. A very good experience for my mom and for me. Every aide arrived bright and ready to help. ![]() Very professional the way they assess needs. I felt this agency really cares about elders and would be the best potential for my parents if they decide to move back into their home in Florida. I was very impressed with the lady (co-founder) who contacted me and I was able to bring up all my questions about their services. There is practically no turnover because we are happy here. They are good to their employees, they listen, keep us informed, and care about our welfare the same as they do the clients. You don’t usually hear from employees of agencies like Flamingo Homecare, but those of us who work here like this company. We are spreading the word! You have blessed our lives and we can’t thank you enough. When I tell people about him and your organization they are amazed at what all Jeff is willing to do and with such a sweet attitude. Jeff had put dad’s wheelchair in the car the day before for us so I was able to wheel him in and out of giving mom a chance to visit and mingle with friends after the service. They were in Church yesterday for the first time I can remember. She is not nearly as stressed and seems to be more rested. I see a definite difference in both my parents. Again thank you so much for helping us out through this difficult time. I hope this gives you an idea on how we feel about our lovely caregivers. She makes sure that my mom uses the bathroom throughout the day or prompts her to change should she have an accident. She tries to have a conversation with her everyday. She tries to get my mom involved in anything that she is doing. She has a great relationship with my mom. She does over and beyond what she needs to do. I leave her a list everyday and she does everything on the list. I don’t think I even could have kept my job without Flamingo’s help. The only rest I get is when I know they are here with her. I never worry about mama’s well-being – I know they treat her like family. Kathy and Tracy have been wonderful caregivers, they have never missed one day. I don’t know what I would have done all these months without Flamingo Homecare. It’s hard to understand the enormous physical and emotional burden my mom’s failing health places on the family. I don’t do public displays of emotion usually. I fell apart today in the Doctor’s office – guess just from hearing what I already knew about mama’s health and future, but didn’t want to face – along with just being completely exhausted emotionally and physically. ![]() The emotional support Flamingo Homecare brought to our home made such a difference! Thank you Jamie and Sheila for the experience and wisdom to help our family through our most difficult time. She was so reassuring and helped us choose a caregiver Mom would be comfortable with… Jamie was a great help and comfort! Although Mom wasn’t with us but a few weeks after she came, Jamie provided a smile and the encouragement we all needed so much. My brother found Flamingo Homecare online and we met with Sheila, the owner, at my home. But, I realized it was now possible for me to care for her at home, with some assistance. Mom had always said ‘a facility’ would be appropriate when she reached that point. Our 96 year-old mom began to decline rapidly, with several hospital stays and orders that she no longer live alone. The rate for us was reasonable but more importantly the care shown by the agency and the staff was truly genuine. She took over and made me feel comfortable. I must say that it was very hard for me to let others do my work and I tended to want to jump in and help, but Avril, my homecare person and new friend, would hear none of it. She arranged for a phone call greeting and once done we were set. Since we are part timers Sheila had just the person for me. Sheila made registering so smooth and provided faces of the staff from which to choose. I am blessed to have found Flamingo Homecare. Because I spend a great deal of time taking care of him I was not able to do things for myself or even around the house. I also caretaker for my 91 year old husband who has COPD. Here is what others say about Flamingo Homecare: ![]()
