I have nothing but praise and gratitude for Visiting Angels of Gainesville. We urgently needed home help for my blind and aged (97 years old) mother. Dealing with Visiting Angels was always a pleasure. From administration (Lynn), to billing (Billy), to actual services (FranChon), everything was very satisfactory. Visiting Angels tailored their service exactly to fit the patient's needs. They are pleasant, professional, and proficient. I highly recommend this agency and will use them again if the need arises.

My wife and I have known the owners of Visiting Angles in Gainesville from the beginning of their ownership and we have the utmost regard for their professionalism and care for their clients and for their careful selection of caregivers. These are very caring people.

1. The owner is money-greedy. Once she has your money, she could care less about your family member. She isn’t kept to date on what is going on in the home. She could not tell my mother anything about my grandmother, her status, or the care she receives on a daily basis. But we also do not have contact with the independent caregivers. 2. The caregivers are never on time. And when they are at work, they are on their phones more than they are attentive to your family member. - They receive no type of training. I’ve worked with a few companies that will at least go over confidentiality requirements with their contractors. This one doesn’t. I recently found out that one of the caregivers was posting Snapchat videos of my confused demented grandmother on her social media. My family decided to seek other services.

The owner is very nice. The caregivers are indispendant contractors from what I see and there is no strong oversight. The only issue I had was the lack of planning. When a caregiver got sick there were no back ups in place for that instance and I had to scrabble at the last minute.
