Frequently Asked Questions

My sisters and I want to thank In Home Personal Services for providing all the wonderful aides who helped my mother, Mary Louise. They helped us so much, in so many countless ways, these past years.
The aides made her life in her own apartment at Lake Barrington Woods possible. While it was Mother's priority to stay in her home there, the ability and patience and the many, many kindnesses of the aides made it the best possible choice for her. We can't tell them- each and every one of them--often enough how much we appreciate their help and concern!
Our special thank you goes to Gabby, who was Mother's caregiver these past many months. Her nursing knowledge, compassion, her energy and work ethic, and her cheerful and enthusiastic presence helped us all get through the last difficult months my mother was alive.
Please thank all the aides at Lake Barrington Woods for us.

Our family would like to give Edgar a letter of high recommendation for his 8 months of care given to our father, Bernard, at The Fountains.
Originally, Edgar was asked to come and care for my father for the last month of his life, or so we thought. Eight months later, Edgar has continued to give our dad the same patient, loving, kind, compassionate care as when he first came. Edgar never complained and has always kept such a sweet spirit about him.
We would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who has need of a caregiver. In-Home should be very proud to have Edgar as an employee.

My brothers and I have talked often about Mario. We are deeply grateful for the care he gives our father, Nels. He is so attentive to our dad. Not only does he help him bathe and get ready for the day, he also touches him often in a caring way, makes sure that he is In no danger of falling, takes him to visit our mom, spends time with our mom and dad, and is at the ready whenever our dad needs something.
Our dad is doing well only because of Mario's care.
Without him, our father would doubtfully be as healthy as he is.
Mario is an outstanding caregiver. We are deeply thankful.

Dear Ephraim,
I am writing to you concerning the performance of your employee Michael. His exemplary service to my father, Robert is to be highly commended. Mike certainly goes the extra mile in providing care and companionship for my Dad. Since I last spoke with you, Mike has responded to an emergency in a very professional way. My Dad had a bad reaction to a blood pressure medication prescribed to him. He passed out at bedtime right before the 4th of July holiday. Mike handled the situation calmly and prevented a hospital stay which could have been very long and uncomfortable for my Dad over the holiday weekend. I feel extremely fortunate to have Mike as a care giver for my father. He provides me with peace of mind knowing that my Dad is very well taken care of.
Sincerely.
