I have to recognize how the bad reviews are from others who thought this company was a women's health center and a place for pap smears. This is a home care company that has gone above and beyond to ensure quality care for my friend. They are dedicated and passionate to their community through and through. My friend shares many stories of the care takers and how they have been such a blessing to her. High recommend.

awesome support from all who were involved in making sure i had proper assistance here at home. just over 4 months total, from totally wheelchair-bound to walking with a cane. whatever i needed, someone was there to provide it. all the staff deserve mention, but are too numerous for me to do so. i will single out the staff member who had the most shifts with me...and that was many over those months. Sean was not only there at my home the most, he also provided the driving-out when i became able to do outside walks to stores and doctors. again, i cant give enough praise to all who helped me through this difficult transition to full mobility. if you ever find yourself in a situation that needs this kind of service, i highly suggest Assisting Hands! - (Larry "Wiz" T"

Being a caregiver for someone you love is a tough and sometimes thankless job! One thing was certain… I could not do it alone. Assisting Hands came into our lives in June 2024. Trish was hands on everyday in the beginning. Making sure that every caregiver they provided and my husband were a good fit. Some were, some weren’t … it was always immediately rectified by Trish and she remained an integral part of our care team for the duration. It was our good fortune to have Rachel be one of the first caregivers provided. Her skill as a caregiver was spot on and so important , but it was her “girl next door” approach and her ability to “ role with the punches” that made both my husband and I fall in love with her. Rachel’s care is the reason we have been able to start enjoying our lives again and she will remain a trusted and loyal part of that life.

The group at Assisting Hands Seacoast was amazing! They are caring, responsive and have terrific follow through. I had a tough situation and needed urgent, round the clock care for my mother when my father went in the hospital - and they rose to the challenge and really saved the day! Several different team members helped and they were all excellent, provided much needed updates and I found them to be extremely competent and thoughtful. The owners of the company really bent over backwards to assist in a challenging holiday week and I have used them for additional services already. I would highly recommend them!
