From day one FIRST LIGHT has been our home care for our our Veteran son after his stroke which rendered him nonverbal and paralyzed on the right side. Our FIRST LIGHT Care Aids that have been with us from the beginning are like family. … More When they arrive They go straight to work after greeting our son. The care they give is over 100%. They are GENUINELY called to do their job. Their interactions with our son are AWESOME and VERY PROFESSIONAL. When extra Care is needed based on a situation that has arisen they are right on it. Also, they've been known to notice something that we missed earlier in the day. FIRST LIGHT is a a top-notch COMPANY with the best Care Aids that WE have had the pleasure of having in our home. FIRST LIGHT has constantly been at our side for the last 3 years. FROM DAY ONE FIRST LIGHT HAS BEEN IN OUR HOME HELPING US WITH OUR SON. I WOULDN'T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY.

FirstLight Home Care is an outstanding choice if you or a family member have any kind of need for assistance or care at home. I’ve worked very closely with some of their staff and clients since I am in the long term care insurance business … More with Mutual of Omaha and am just amazed with how involved they are in such a positive way with the community and their clients. FirstLight is one of the few home health care companies I know of that regularly send out a supervisor to make sure everything service-wise is being provided at a level that can never be less than excellent, AND they accept long-term care insurance as a way to cover all costs. And a special shout out to the lovely Ms. Jennifer Green who never fails to go above and beyond for anyone that she can help. She is truly a difference maker in so many lives and I am so grateful to have met her! -

amazing in our time of need. They came to our house, assessed our needs, and found the right caregivers to match us with. It provided me with the confidence to return to work knowing that there was someone … More there with my husband in case he needed assistance or ran into a problem.
