For over 10 years I served as the main caregiver for my mother.. until March 2022 when her needs progressed to the point I could not longer appropriately meet take care of them. So the search for an at-home care giver company started. … More When we came upon FirstLight, and I spoke with Amie, I knew it was the "one".
From the very first conversation, Amie made us feel comfortable and secure. Giving up part of the responsibility to care for a parent is not easy – and can be quite stressful. Amie, and the entire crew, made the process simple, easy and immediately garnered trust from us. The team at the office was receptive to coordinating our needs. The team on-site was, in a word, amazing. Each and every one of the aides was thoughtful, attentive, caring and authentic. They actually cared for my mom, as a person, not just a "client".
While we only utilized them for a short few weeks before her condition progressed more and led to the need of a inpatient facility, FirstLight gave her comfort and dignity during that time in her own home. For that, I am forever grateful to the entire team. I cannot speak enough of them and the way they handled our needs. They brought peace of mind to me in helping to provide for my mom. They brought comfort and dignity to her in handling her concerns. They were phenomenal in all ways. -

I have used FirstLight twice now – once for my father who was on hospice care at home, and once for my mother who was recovering from a knee replacement. In both cases, they were fantastic and truly a lifesaver. We dealt with a couple other … More home care agencies before finding FirstLight for my father, and they absolutely paled in comparison.
I can't say enough positive things about Amie Deak. She's not only professional, honest, and efficient, but she's compassionate, empathetic, and driven to meet your needs. She worked hard to create a caregiving schedule that worked for us with caregivers who would be the best fit.
The caregivers at FirstLight are top notch (and if they don't quite meet expectations, Amie handles it swiftly and with transparency). In addition to providing the care and assistance required, they're friendly, caring, and help keep your house in order (often anticipating your needs before you even have to ask).
Thank you, FirstLight and Amie, for helping in the toughest of times with my father and keeping my mom safe after her surgery. We will absolutely use you again should the need arise. -

FirstLight Home Care … More
I have NEVER in my entire career received anything as kind as that!! Something as simple as that made my entire week!!
I thoroughly enjoy my job with FirstLight Home Care. I worked 38 years as a Radiology and Angiography Technologist in mostly hospitals. I want to tell you that FirstLight Home Care is the best employer I have ever had and a great company! Not only do they care about their clients, who are not just a number or money, but they also treat their employees exceptionally well. I want you to know it is very much appreciated. Everyone I have come in contact with has been so kind and helpful. They all treat me with respect.

For over 10 years I served as the main caregiver for my mother.. until March 2022 when her needs progressed to the point I could not longer appropriately meet take care of them. So the search for an at-home care giver company started. … More When we came upon FirstLight, and I spoke with Amie, I knew it was the "one".
From the very first conversation, Amie made us feel comfortable and secure. Giving up part of the responsibility to care for a parent is not easy – and can be quite stressful. Amie, and the entire crew, made the process simple, easy and immediately garnered trust from us. The team at the office was receptive to coordinating our needs. The team on-site was, in a word, amazing. Each and every one of the aides was thoughtful, attentive, caring and authentic. They actually cared for my mom, as a person, not just a "client".
While we only utilized them for a short few weeks before her condition progressed more and led to the need of a inpatient facility, FirstLight gave her comfort and dignity during that time in her own home. For that, I am forever grateful to the entire team. I cannot speak enough of them and the way they handled our needs. They brought peace of mind to me in helping to provide for my mom. They brought comfort and dignity to her in handling her concerns. They were phenomenal in all ways. -

I have used FirstLight twice now – once for my father who was on hospice care at home, and once for my mother who was recovering from a knee replacement. In both cases, they were fantastic and truly a lifesaver. We dealt with a couple other … More home care agencies before finding FirstLight for my father, and they absolutely paled in comparison.
I can't say enough positive things about Amie Deak. She's not only professional, honest, and efficient, but she's compassionate, empathetic, and driven to meet your needs. She worked hard to create a caregiving schedule that worked for us with caregivers who would be the best fit.
The caregivers at FirstLight are top notch (and if they don't quite meet expectations, Amie handles it swiftly and with transparency). In addition to providing the care and assistance required, they're friendly, caring, and help keep your house in order (often anticipating your needs before you even have to ask).
Thank you, FirstLight and Amie, for helping in the toughest of times with my father and keeping my mom safe after her surgery. We will absolutely use you again should the need arise. -

I wanted to give my appreciation to my caregiver Maria for all she does for us. She goes above and beyond all our expectations. She has been with us two years now and is like family to us and I hope she continues to be a part of our life.

Clea is the most compassionate understanding caring giving individual we have ever met in our lives. She just doesn’t take care of my husband, but she also takes care of me both of us 100%. We look forward to our days when she is coming. She is the very best and we are blessed. She has motivated my husband, Richard to be more active to feel better to socialize and she has given me more confidence to do more to be more like her to be happy to be giving to be loving and I’m going to cry right now. We are so happy that we found Clea through First Light they were so accommodating when I requested to have Clea as our caregiver only as I thought it would work all around to have one person everyone that that came to us was wonderful and it was just a choice that we made to have one person. If you ever need home care, First Life is the place to go. They are the very best.
- JOAN HANNAH
We have been utilizing home health services for my father close to a year now with First Light. We are very happy with our caregiver team including Joanna and Heidi. Joanna constantly goes above and beyond to care for my father and communicate with us to better improve his life. I can’t speak highly enough of her. Heidi is always kind and considerate of my father’s needs and shows compassion when he has difficult days. Lastly, we are thankful for the check-ins we receive from the manager Tami on a regular basis making sure all of my father’s needs are met and we are happy with the caregiver services he receives. All in all, they make life a little easier taking care of an aging parent at home and we are very thankful for the help.
