The team at North River Home Care was so integral to my aunt's care. They cared for her as if she was family and made sure she had what she needed to live as independently as possible. I highly recommend them!

Jen Davis was great to work with scheduling caregivers for our mom. She was responsive to any feedback and requests in a timely manner. This is the difference between North River and other support services. They listen and respond quickly and do their best to find good caregivers that are a good fit with those being cared for. Kathy and Tracey were kind, attentive and hard working!

North River helped immensely in taking care of my mother (as I had an immediate need) until I could get her moved into Memory Care. Their employees were kind and compassionate and their services gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend their services.

My 94 year old mother returned to her apartment in September 2024 after a fall and time in the hospital and in rehabilitation. North River Home Care was recommended to us by a person we trusted. Our experience with North River was excellent from start to finish. Management was highly responsive, from our first call, and constantly monitored my mother's care. The aides who were with my mother were all caring, and did a terrific job helping my mother maintain her dignity while assisting with necessary details of life. My mother responded to this support and gradually grew stronger. With time we were able to slowly reduce aides services from 24 hours daily to the point that no further assistance was required. Over a month has passed since then and my mother continues to do very well. This recovery was in great part the fruit of the caring help and gentle assistance North River provided to her, bringing her back to pretty much as she was and once again walking long distances (no not running but she never did). . We are all extremely happy with the support she received from North River for which we remain most grateful.

The North River Team was excellent while dealing with my parents care. Our Care Advisor Mia met with us and went over all they can do and gave me frequent updates. The home aids were wonderful in dealing with my mother who can be difficult and helped my Dad run errands as well as with hygiene and self-care. When the time comes for more help with my parents home care we will definitely be contacting North River Home Care.
