    I am so thankful for FirstLight Home Care. I had back surgery and needed help while I was recovering. Jessica came to my house so I could interview and set up an agreement with the times that best served my needs. The ladies who came … More to help were great. They allowed me to be independent but were there to help with all the bending, twisting and light lifting I could not do. They warmed my meals ,helped me with laundry and making up beds. They evened helped me replant some of my plants that I couldn’t manage. As I got stronger they encouraged me to gradually do a little more, keeping me from hurting my back. They were always prompt and engaged. I highly recommend their services.

    I had a fantastic experience with FirstLight home healthcare providers! If you're looking for a healthcare service I would recommend contacting FirstLight. Some of the highlights of using FirstLight is their flexibility, the pleasant … More demeanor of the caregivers, and the variety of services they offer, like personal care and companionship. They were able to accommodate my needs on short notice, which adds to their value.
    I had an outstanding experience with my home healthcare provider! The caregivers were not only extremely flexible with scheduling but also very pleasant and positive. Dee went above and beyond by washing my hair when I needed it most after coming out of the hospital. They offer a variety of services and are always happy to help. I highly recommend them for anyone in need of compassionate and responsive care. Five stars!

    Bobby's team came into my in-laws life at the right time. We were in desperate need for quality homecare for Mom and Dad. He's team started part time, providing personal, loving care for Dad. When the time came, his team seamlessly … More moved to 24 hour care for Dad and mom. Their ability to provide homecare at home, at the rehab center, and and the retirement home was a godsend. We are extremely grateful for how his team showed compassion, patience, and understanding to our wants, needs, and overall lack of understanding regarding Alzheimer's and Dementia. Bobby, we allowed your team into our lives, and you did not disappoint. Thank you and your team for being there at the beginning and the end.

    I truly appreciate the individual attention by FirstLight Home Care management and employees. They are always willing to take extra effort in matching my care needs with a care companion. Also, if I need extra support for incidental concerns, … More the management is there for me. I have been using FirstLight for over a year. One time I had difficulty with the employee sent. They listened and acted on my concerns. That gives me comfort and confidence that the company is reliable and will always be there for me. A really sweet note – they make the extra effort in celebrating my birthday and holidays. I think that's special!

    First Light Home Care is FIRST CLASS! When my Mama was diagnosed with cancer, I was scared and ready to fight alongside her in everyway. First Light came alongside both of us and joined the fight by developing relationship, driving Mama … More to appointments, even picking up a hot cup of soup or a milkshake after chemo. They went above and beyond! You need support with a loved one?-Call First Light.
