FirstLight rescued me and my siblings when we needed help with mom and we didn't know where to turn. They were amazing and took the time to get to know her before setting her up with a caregiver. If you or a parent are in need of in-home … More caregiver services, look no further than FirstLight. -
My sister in SC has used aides twice a week from First Light for several years now. Due to her declining health, I took over the financial responsibility of the service about two years ago. Last Spring (2023), my sister moved to a very … More good Assisted Living facility. At the time, we needed to decide whether to continue with First Light or not. By far, the best decision we made was to keep the aide and services from First Light. The aide makes sure my sister keeps her medical appointments; she provides activities for my sister separate from the Assisted Living facility which provides my sister with a higher quality of life, and the aide permits me to have my life here in another state. It is more than just the aide. If there are any concerns about anything, someone from First Light calls me and makes sure I am aware of what is happening. First Light’s staff is well informed and professional. I could not be more pleased. I know there is someone there, if needed. I highly recommend First Light for Home Care services. -
Very good company with great workers. Jayla has to be one of the sweetest workers to come in A day without jayla is like a day without sunshine -
We first used FirstLight in 2015 when my father required 24/7 care. The only time we had an issue with a caregiver not showing up was due to severe weather. Lisa would come out herself if necessary to cover until a caregiver could be there. … More After dad passed away, they continued caring for mom until we had to move her to memory care. This has been an 8 year relationship. Every now and then you get a caregiver who is not a good fit or conducts personal business on the clock, but the lines of communication are open. Lisa is responsive to your concerns. -

Our first experience with First Light was nothing short of 100 percent perfection.My wife(an RN for 30 years) had numerous "what if questions"related to her Mother's care.None of which she had to ask.Lisa and Chris came to … More our home,First Light was explained in detail (no stone was left unturned)We also met Nikhia.My Mother in law is 95 and was resisting at first , when we called to check on her, she raved about "Nikki" and their time together.Nikki had quickly adapted to ,not only her physical needs,but her emotional ones as well.It doesn't get any better than that.
Thank you First Light Home Care -

FirstLight has been serving my father now for over a year since a stroke left him disabled. I'm very happy with all aspects of the care received. I got my life back!

I was worried about the cost, but the owner helped by suggesting programs that might be available to my father. I would have never known he qualified for the VA program and the Respite programs.

Lisa Price & her staff have helped me care for my mother for over 2 years. Lisa's personal, hands-on style sets the example for her staff with professionalism, kindness & compassion. I don't know what we would do without … More the excellent care from FirstLight. -
I have worked with FirstLight Home Care for almost 5 years and could not be happier with the culture that our owners Lisa and Chris Price have fostered.
I began working with FirstLight as a caregiver while in CNA classes and immediately … More felt welcomed and supported in my role. The onboarding and training that I received made me feel confident and excited about the prospect of caring for the clients that we serve. Every new week I gained more knowledge and skills that allowed me to be the best caregiver that I could be. All this while continually being supported by the owners and office staff.
