I just wanted to let you know we are so pleased with Liz’s work with Mom. Liz has been a godsend to me and to Mom. Recently, Mom had some plumbing issues in her house. Fortunately, Liz was there with her when the problem occurred, and she placed the appropriate calls, waited for the technician to arrive, and brought Mom pizza while they waited, cleaned up the bathrooms, and generally just helped out until the situation was on its way to being resolved. You have a gem of an employee in Liz and we are very grateful to have her as Mom’s companion. I would be pleased if you could place this letter of praise in Liz’s personnel file

Dear Ed,

Please excuse the delay in writing you this note. I’m the friend of Al who called you frantically on February 16th to ask for your help in getting care for Lloyd. Within an hour you had Ms. Baker here, by 8:00 PM she had help here. It was a lifesaver for me, as I could no longer help him.

Your aids were a godsend. They stayed with him continuously and never left his side, giving him non-stop care. I will recommend your services to anyone who needs help. Thank you again for everything you did.

Gratefully,

Lon S.

“My elderly mother was brought into the Emergency Department late in the day and we found ourselves faced with the prospect of having her discharged without any options for overnight care, something I could not provide, struggling with the flu. I called Angel Companions just before 5 pm with lots of worry and little data. Not only was Alex Gelleri calming and reassuring, he assured us a companion and stayed in touch well into the evening until everything was resolved. Thank you so much for making sure Mom would be safe and that I could sleep in my own bed.

Thank you for the tender loving care you gave to my husband Robert, at a most difficult time. Words cannot express how I feel, you are truly angels!

I would like to commend Kamili for the amazing job she did as caregiver for my parents for almost two years. She started out supervising dad with his exercises and ended up taking care of just about everything for mom and dad. And she did it all with a smile. It was hard for my parents to accept that they needed help, but Kamili quickly won them over with her cheerful friendship and caring.

As she began to work more hours for mom and dad, she took care of more and more. She doesn’t like to sit and do nothing so she cleaned bathrooms and the kitchen, did laundry, cleaned floors, checked that meds were taken, made lunch, changed sheets, and went for walks with mom and dad. She and dad worked out a schedule of exercises and walking and, with her encouragement to walk just a bit farther each day, he was able to walk all the way to the dining room. That was something we didn’t think he would ever be able to do!

Mom has Alzheimer’s so she would occasionally be difficult to deal with and not want to do certain things.  Kamili was so good at distracting mom and joking with her to get her in a better mood. Or sometimes she would just know to leave mom alone for awhile and try again later.

Kamili was always looking for fun things to do with mom. They would go for walks and see the garden or feed the fish at Ashcroft. She took mom to the library, to play bocce ball, and to the fitness center. Sometimes they just folded laundry because mom likes to help out with things. She was a fun companion. No matter what they did they were usually laughing!

Since I live out of state it was important for me to know my parents were getting good care when I couldn’t be there myself. I could not have found anyone better than Angel Companions and Kamili.  She is honest, dependable, and so caring.  She always kept in touch with me so I would know what was going on even if I wasn’t able to be there.

Alex, thank you for all the help with my mother. You guys were a life saver. Tell Joyce my family thanks her for all the support she gave my mother. Joyce was a great help. Thanks Again!

Dear Alex,

My family and I wanted to write to thank you and Ursula for all of your help caring for our mother, Jeanne Green. You both were so kind and caring through our difficult journey. My sister, Jeannie, and I felt lost and overwhelmed as we began to set up services for mom when she made the decision to enter hospice care. We wanted to enable mom to remain in her home for as long as possible. With both of us working full time and with Jeannie still raising children, we needed help. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Mom initially found it hard to have an aide living with her. When Nataki came onboard, we knew we had found the right match for mom. Nataki was very relational with mom and helped her feel comfortable accepting her help. She was very patient and generous in caring for mom and coordinating her care with me and my sister. Over the course of Nataki’s time with mom, we all (myself, my two sisters and my brother) felt very fortunate to have her with us. She was a godsend for us! Mom has now passed but my siblings and I find comfort in knowing that we were able to find such competent and compassionate care for her. We will not hesitate to recommend Angel Companions!

Thank you, again!

It is my pleasure to compose this testimonial for Angel Companions.  The care of my 2 elderly parents was not only competent and professional but very compassionate and extraordinarily dependable.  Prior to employing Angel Companions, the previous health aide had frequent absences.  The most reassuring aspect is the reliability of Angel Companions.  My parents were never left without a scheduled aide.

I cannot say enough about Keyanna who was their health aide.  She was quickly accepted by my parents and consistently went the extra distance to ensure their care and comfort.  She was particularly skillful in her care of my father who suffers from dementia.

Alex Gelleri and his wife Ursula truly give Angel Companions that family business feeling.  Everyone we encountered was warm, friendly, competent, and professional.

I want to thank you, Ed, for arranging the care of my Mother, Marguerite. She was in the capable hands of your employee, Sharon. I want to let you know how very pleased we were with the excellent care Sharon gave my mother. She was always there on time and encouraged my Mother to do her exercises and drink her water. She supervised Mother’s daily routine and released us from our worry. Her willingness to return to Mother’s and supervise her nightly routine was wonderful. Again, thank you for your help. I will highly recommend your agency to others who need your services.

My wife Pat and I wish to thank Angel Companions for the invaluable help you have given us for my mother in a time of need and difficulty in this last year. From the time when we were advised by Paoli Hospital staff that my mother needed 24-hour supervision immediately upon discharge, until her death from a prolonged illness early this month, your diligent and compassionate companions tended to her needs and wants until the moment of her passing. The services and tender caring, both physical and spiritual, given to my mother were far beyond the call of duty and will always be remembered and appreciated by us in our time of extreme need. Your companions were there to help Mom within hours after her hospital discharge and performed tirelessly for her, both in shifts and continuously, for the duration of her life. The devotion and caring of your companions has been exemplary and we would not hesitate to recommend your wonderful people to anyone in need! Truly you are angels of mercy. We thank you again for your love and care!

I don’t know how our family would have managed the past three months without you and your Angel Companions. From the moment I first spoke with you, you have met every need so quickly and compassionately. We feel so blessed to have found you. And your loving caregivers during both my Dad’s illness and my husband’s grandmother’s last days. The sincerity and care shown by every member of your staff is a tribute to the decency of human kind. In such a violent and challenging world, it is refreshing to find such loving and caring individuals to help out during the most difficult of times. On behalf of my Dad and our entire family, we thank you and all your Angels your exemplary care and loving ways.

I would like to take a moment to say “Thank You”. Your home care companions were greatly appreciated by not only me, but the rest of my family. While assisting in the care of my mother, Jackie, Salima, Advance & Debbie were excellent. I would also like to thank Amy for her support and assistance. They definitely made the experience a little easier with the professional care and tentative attitude given. Again, I would like to extend our gratitude and appreciation

Hello, As you know, my mother passed away. I want to thank you for the outstanding care you provided her after her fall. Your ladies were lovely! Especially Claudia! I don’t know what we would have done without her. Thank you.

Alex, thank you for your quick assistance last week in providing a companion for my brother David. Faith was a big help this week in getting him settled and back into a routine at home.

Thank you for all the help that you and Angel Companions provided to me and my Dad Karl, during his illness. Your responsiveness was amazing, considering my Dad’s rapid decline and the fact that we seemed to have a new and different need everyday. The individuals you sent to help us (Beju, Mariana and Roland) were very capable and their assistance is much appreciated. I would especially like to recommend and compliment Beju. My Dad came to trust and rely on her in a very short period of time. I also found her very caring, competent and a comfort to have with me. Thank you again for the excellent service and professional way you handled our needs. I will not hesitate to use or recommend Angel Companions in the future.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for recommending Amy Schmidt to help at home! Per your suggestion I called her and she came to Dunwoody to talk to me concerning a person to stay with me when I returned home. I SO ENJOYED our visit and learning all about ANGEL COMPANIONS! Arrangements were made to have a gal, Elizabeth, come for four hours twice a week. “Beth” was SO HELPFUL and VERY WILLING to do whatever we needed. She also was a joy to be with! Amy called asking if everything was going well. I responded, everything going VERY WELL!

I recently had to fly out of town (alone) to have lower lumbar surgery at the Laser Spine Institute’s facility in Wayne, PA. Any surgery is stressful and in my case that stress is compounded by the fact that I can also experience extreme anxiety from having Grave’s Disease. From the moment I spoke to Amy Schmidt (Director of Client Services) at Angel Companions, she immediately took charge of making arrangements but with a degree of empathy one seldom experiences. Although she experienced a death in the family, she provided her own replacement and continued to touch base with me to ensure that my care was provided for. If I hadn’t felt lucky and cared for up to that point, I certainly did when Joy stepped in as my caregiver. The woman was organized, saw to needs that even I had not anticipated and exceeded every expectation of care that I had. Although I believe in giving compliments when they are due, this is the first letter of recommendation I’ve ever written; it is my feeling that they should only be given to the very best. Joy, in particular, proved herself to be a credit to her profession and took the extra time and effort that I know it took to calm me down as well as provide excellent physical care. Both of these women exceeded my expectations by far but Joy; in particular, represented Angel Companions in such a positive way that I’d recommend your service without hesitation.

This review represents a small token of our feelings about the work of the Angels. It is only a small measure of our feelings about your work. Work is the wrong word, LOVE is a better word.
The Angels, all of them, have done more for my wife than all the doctors and nurses or whatever combined.
I was going to write a long letter of praise but no, I think LOVE covers it all.
We would like to say some of the Angels standout. Maybe because they work (LOVE) during the day when there is more to do. Evelyn, Phyllis and Dean – but they are all excellent.
They all cared for Eleanor with such kindness, love, respect and smiles. It was a blessing for me to behold. Thank you for bringing my love back to me.

Angel Companions took care of my grandmother when she was home bound and they did a wonderful job. They were friendly, on time and reliable and really cared about my Grandmom even on a personal level. They even kept in touch to see how she was doing when she had to go to a nursing home. They really helped me and I am so glad that I found them!

We are writing in support of Carol G. who worked for us for five months from September 2014 through January 2015. In January her services were no longer needed because Larry’s hyperbaric oxygen treatments ended.
Larry is wheelchair bound while his foot heals from numerous surgeries and subsequent wounds, and Carol was hired to enable him to go to daily hyperbaric oxygen treatments at the Wound Center at Lankenau Hospital. Each day she would help Larry to get washed and dressed and to eat breakfast before leaving for Lankenau. She would help him get into her car, and they would go to the Wound Center…. After the 2-hour treatment, she would… take him home…She cleaned up the breakfast and lunch dishes.
Carol is a warm, friendly, and helpful person who developed good relations with not only us, but also the Wound Center staff….. Carol is totally reliable and loyal, always on time and never missing a day during the five months with us. We recommend her highly.

I would like to thank you for the excellent and prompt service that I received from Angel Companions. The emergency situation with my Mother was handled quickly. I appreciate the fact that you were able to find a companion for my mom within 24 hours and that she was covered for the time that we needed. The companions that she had were both kind and caring. They were able to comfort and encourage her in her time of need. I would also like to thank Ursula for her visits with my Mom which was over and above the services that you offer.
I would highly recommend Angel Companions to families that need a companion for a loved one. If at any time in the future I would need help again I will definitely contact you. Please feel free to share my excellent experience.

I am sure you know that my father passed away last night, I just wanted to thank you all for your support during my father’s illness. You were always there for us every step of the way. I want to thank you for your friendliness and ability to work things out for me. You went way above what was necessary to meet our needs. I cannot say enough about your organization from the caregivers to the office staff. You have two gems in Patience and Monica. Thank you for bringing them into my father’s life.

We are most grateful to Angel Companions. For several years at both a senior living facility and for two years at home, Angel companions took care of our Mom. Mom was not ambulatory, and the level of care and cleanliness was paramount. Angel companions did a terrific job. Also, given Mom was in need of 24 hour care, Angel companions was able to have care around the clock, even on snow days when the caregiver had to sleep over night. We never had to worry about not having full-time care. Angel Companions had full-time assistance for Mom at all times.

Most importantly, we wanted to give exceptional praise for Adama. Adama was with Mom throughout and was a mainstay in the care giving. Adama was caring, thoughtful and able to handle the toughest situations. Adama established a special rapport with Mom. Our only regret is that Adama could not work 7 days a week without sleep. We want to thank Adama for her resolute commitment to our Mom and her caring attitude and dedication.

Just a quick note to tell you what a great job Keyanna and Ashlee did with Mom over the past three weeks. Several of the staff where Mom is in assisted living complimented them on how good they were with Mom, and one staff member told me how “safe and secure” Mom felt with Keyanna.

We also appreciated the quick turnaround time for placement of your aides. I called you on a Wednesday, an assessment was done on Mom on Friday morning, and on Monday morning, Keyanna started.

We will certainly recommend others to you, and will certainly use your services if the need arises.

I just wanted to drop you a note on behalf of myself and our entire family to thank you for your extraordinary care of our mother, Joan. Mom was always so independent and never wanted to give in to the fact that she needed help at home. From the moment you met with her with her first aide, she was able to slowly accept the help, and then finally really appreciated it. It has been a very difficult time for us, but having the live-in with her was a godsend.

Her second aide, Nataki, was nothing short of exceptional! She communicated with the family often and displayed such caring along with her incredible professionalism. She knew exactly how to handle situations with Mom so that she didn’t push too much, but got her to accept the help she needed. They got along so well and for that we are forever grateful. During Mom’s last week of life, when she was in the hospital and then the hospice, Nataki came to see her on her own time. You are truly fortunate to have an aide like her.

Please extend our thanks also to the entire staff for all of the help they provided through various phone calls and issues which we may have had. We would not hesitate for one second to recommend Angel Companions to anyone!!

To the staff of Angel Companions,

It is hard to express how much we appreciate the level of quality of care that you provided to our entire family. You are truly special and inspiring people. Thank you for everything.
