I can’t praise the aide Claire enough. She was so kind to my husband. She made sure to keep him comfortable & without pain giving him pain med every 4 hrs during the night.
She added a spiritual aspect that I greatly
appreciated. She supported me & let me be part of the care process.
I am telling many friends abt your company.
You all were truly a blessing in my husbands
final days. God bless you all. Thanks Barb Wolf

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have known Toni Maldonado, CSA, DignityFirst’s chief executive, administrator, and owner for the past few years.   She is a deeply knowledgeable leader in the healthcare industry and a true professional who operates with the highest moral and ethical standards.   She genuinely cares for her clients and their families.   You can reach Toni and her leadership team 24 hours a day.    As a healthcare professional myself, I know first-hand that Toni and her team “jump through hoops” to help anyone, whether in a crisis situation or for those just planning ahead to reduce risk for their loved ones.   Even if you just need guidance in finding the right solution, she is very willing to help.     Without hesitation, I highly recommend Toni and her team.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My experience with Toni from Dignity First was beyond my expectations. My 91 year old dad was in rehab. My plan was to move him to asst. living. With his declining health I needed to find a at home 24 hour care service. With 48 hour notice DF made this happen. My dad’s care from David and Youne was over the top. I had a lot of support from friends all of them were very impressed with the service from DF. I would highly recommend Dignity First for any family member that needs in Home Care.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Providing organized, professional, compassionate care for the most special person in your world is everything.  DignityFirst Health at Home surpassed my highest expectations.  First time I have said that about a company.

From Toni coming to the house and explaining the role DignityFirst plays along with hospice, meeting the family, taking time to answer every question my mom, my family, and I had, to the caregivers themselves.  DignityFirst gave me some peace during one of the most difficult times I will ever face.  Forget me, my mother was very happy with her care and that is all that mattered.

Toni, the owner of DignityFirst was always available.  Souad and Stephanie gave mom fantastic care.  While that was enough, Souad and Stephanie also made sure the rest of my family, neighbors, friends, and I had whatever we needed to be free to spend time with mom.  Always organized, always professional, always compassionate, and always patient with mom.
Most people reading this are about ready to start making some high stakes decisions.  Nothing is more important than the comfort of a loved one facing the end of their time on this earth.

I did the research and made scores of calls.  My heart goes out to anyone reading reviews due to an ill loved one.  Do yourself a big favor and call Toni at DignityFirst Health at Home.  If Souad, Stephanie, or both happen to be available, that special loved one in your life will be in great hands.  Knowing how important this decision is to people, I sure wouldn't post a review unless I was ready to stand behind my words.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dignity First cared for my dad 24/7 over the last eight months of his life. Having experienced other in-home care services while my mom was suffering from dementia, I know a difference when I see one. From our initial consultation with Toni to the end of my father's life, I can tell you that this local company cares. Terie, Gail and Cassandra were absolute angels and they felt like family to my dad and I. My dad has only been gone for a week but I grew to love these ladies so much that I really miss them. First class, fabulous care and more affordable than what we experienced prior. Well done Toni
and team......you made our family's life easier and my dad absolutely thrived and was so happy until the end. The day before he died (with Cassandra and his hospice nurse in attendance)
he said, "I feel great!!!!" He was so well cared for and I am
indebted with gratitude. 🩷🩷🩷

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was referred to Dignity First by two Elevation Hospice nurses. We were in desperate need of homecare in addition to hospice. The owners of Dignity First, Toni and her husband, came to my house at 7 pm on the same day that I called, to meet my husband and do an intake. CNA, Claire Bailey, came highly recommended by Elevation Hospice. I requested Claire and she started at 9 a.m. the following day for 24/7 homecare. Claire was over the top and always knew what to do to care for my husband. She communicated to our family the entire time and explained the dying process to us. Claire worked closely with the Elevation Hospice team. They all know Claire. My husband died peacefully with Claire and our family by his side. Thank you Claire, Toni and Dignity First for all that you do. I highly recommend Dignity First.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. DignityFirst Health at Home was recommended by the Hospice providers for my Mother's 24 Hour end-of-life care needs.  Toni and her team were super responsive given the short amount of time we had to find a provider. Toni's professionalism, knowledge and guidance were wonderful but her top notch care providers really make the difference. Claire was so knowledgeable, compassionate, and attentive.  Her wound care expertise really provided my mother much needed relief and comfort helping my mother really feel at ease and cared for as she transitioned out of this life.  Claire's compassion and ability to explain what to expect and the changes we saw also helped the family better understand and cope with the challenges of this difficult time. I highly recommend DignityFirst Health at Home and would use them again should the need arise.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot say enough good things about your staff and you. You are very important in our lives right now. Until recently, I was getting different ladies each time and they were all delightful. In particular, I loved Misty and Penne and Esther really did me a great service in the help she provided. Now I get Zayden ever time and that is a great help. I only get 4 precious hours and not having to introduce a new person each time gives me more time to do what I need/want to do. I am looking forward to a long and glorious relationship with her. Love & Peace, Janet

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. O my gosh! Frank S. was recommended to me to help out in a situation in which we needed a trusted person to monitor a patient in a long term facility. He provided us with valuable information and helped our loved one when facility nurses were less responsive. He also fully bathed the patient which was above and beyond. This is an excellent reaource.

Combative Behavior with Dementia

Not everyone with dementia becomes combative. Some people remain easygoing and pleasant their whole lives even with dementia. If this is a problem, there are several things you can do to make your life and their lives easier

Sandwiched

Caught between generations, I stand—a daughter, a mother, and a spouse. A soul-surviving once-caregiver to sister, mother, and partner. Navigating the unknown in the extreme discomfort zone of balancing it all.
