My husband has Alzheimer’s and needs 24/7 supervision. I have been using caregivers from First Light for over 4 months to give myself some respite a few days a week. They have been wonderful! Always punctual, kind, friendly, and professional. … More If a caregiver needs a day off, the agency tries very hard to find a replacement. Our regular caregiver 2 days a week, Cheyenne, is amazing. She somehow gets lots of housework done and also keeps a close eye on my busy husband. I feel so lucky to have her, and also confident that he will be safe with her when I am away from home. -

Our experience with Sherry has been that from the moment she arrives she is constantly assessing the environment to improve the client’s situation, which includes continually asking the client themselves what they need or would like to … More have completed.
She is acutely aware of her responsibilities and effectively works with the client, client’s family, and the agency to maximize the care plan.
She has utmost respect for the client and her role, has developed positive relationships with client’s family, as well the staff and residents of the client’s living facility, and is a pleasure to be around.
She has raised the bar against which, future caregivers will be compared.
Thank you, Sherry! -

Julie was scheduled to be with my mother for five days. She was always here ahead of time worked very well with my mother and also cleaned up around the house.
FirstLight Home Care made contact with me when it was noted they would take … More care of mom during the period needed. They came to the house and made sure what was needed would be in the scope of work. Prior to the time to start the work a conformation call was made about times and dates with a schedule for Julie to visit the house and cover the needs and expectations we had of the work.
FirstLight Home Care was very responsive to our needs and exceeded our requirements. -

First Light was a LIGHT in a very dark time. My Pop was being discharged from the hospital, but he wasn’t able to completely care for himself. He absolutely didn’t want to go to a care-center and the hospital refused to release him unless he had 24 hour care. First Light was on the hospital’s list to call. Within a matter of hours, they had a representative at the hospital explaining the care we could expect.

FirstLight has been great – my dad lives rurally and that made it hard to find someone. They matched him with a caregiver that he really likes and in just a few short weeks he talks about them like they are a good friend. Thank you!!
- Mel F.
FirstLight has been wonderful in caring for my Mom. The caregivers truly care and make sure that she is happy, eats right, and continues to be active. With the help of FirstLight I am able to also take care of myself knowing that my Mom is safe when I cannot be with her.
- CL B.
Great caring and easy company to work with. In a world where you question everyone’s motives these people REALLY care for the people they serve. From the very start they were there to care for my parents. Thank you Jennifer for setting everything up. And a heart warming thank you for Kristen. This women is an angel on earth.

We first found First Light in California, soon after the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s was made and my Mom needed more care than we could provide. the service and attention to her care and well being was great and First Light rapidly became a member of the family. The move to Oregon was made even better than imagined when we found that First Light was also available here.

I was worried that my mom who lives in Salem wasn’t taking care of herself or monitoring her diabetes so I decided to search online for in-home care and came across FirstLight. They’re very friendly and make the whole process easy.
- Sarah E.
From the start, First Light matched us up with someone so compatible that we got off to a great start. Her set of skills and personality matched our needs almost perfectly, even to our offbeat sense of humor. We could relax knowing we could count on her. She had a good attitude and liked learning new things. She left a big hole when she left.

We started with First Light some time ago. My Husband is who receives their Services. Like any time starting a program, and having people in our home, takes some getting use to. Yet First Light has always been there to listen to any concern we had and to give support and listen to any problems I had as a wife getting use to others in the house.
- Maryann B.
A wonderful organization. Professional and competent with caring and responsive caregivers. We are very lucky to be able to utilize their services.

Our caregiver Ivanna from FirstLight is the best! Over the last six months she has cared for my husband three days a week. Ivanna ‘s experience in caregiving and professionalism is much appreciated. She has been trustworthy, and reliable. She has consistently shown excellent communication skills and calm. pleasant demeanor.

Martha is my mom’s caretaker and she is great to work with. She gets my mom to shower even when my mom is trying her hardest to get out of it. I enjoy having her come to my home and appreciate what she does.
- Lynn B.
FirstLight sends honest, loyal, dependable and reliable people to come care for you. We love how FirstLight is always on top of communication and needs. I have a caregiver Nicole who’s hardworking, stays busy throughout the whole day and does anything she is asked to do, no matter the task.

I have been using the services from FirstLight since Sept/2021 and have been very satisfied with the staff and caregivers who have been assigned to me. The staff are very attentive to my needs. The caregivers {Alexis and Delilah} are exceptional, timely, quick to learn and treat me with respect. I highly recommend FirstLight for services anyone is in need of.

Caring, reliable, concerned, experienced — we could not be happier with the service FirstLight has provided our family. They listen and treat each case individually so they can match the right caregiver to the specific need.
