Heidi has helped us out with my dad for the last 2.5 years as a Companion, Care Giver and Advocate. Dad currently lives in Long Term Care and Heidi helps ensure that he is engaged and thriving. During this time, his health took a few turns and Heidi was always on top of ensuring he received the care he needed. She communicated to us any issues (and suggested solutions) she found during her time with him. She walked us through many gloomy days when he wasn't well and helped us get him back on track. Her proactive, positive, empowering approach to Elder Care has left us with the peace of mind that his needs are being met with compassion, respect and dignity. We are entirely grateful for the respite she has offered (especially when we are overwhelmed and burnt out) and wholeheartedly recommend entrusting the care of your loved one to her very capable hands. We cannot thank her enough for being present with us during this time of dad's life.

I hired Heidi Bene as a PSW/caregiver for my husband and for periods of respite for myself. She was very kind, compassionate and always had my husband's needs uppermost on her mind. She had alot of energy, was very positive and meticulous with all of his care. I had complete trust in her when I left my husband in her care and was confident she would be able to handle any situation that might arise. She was very knowledgeable on all aspects of geriatric caregiving and I learned much from her. Though my husband could not speak, she made tremendous effort to communicate with and understand him. She helped us tremendously during the last stages of my husband's illness and I will be forever grateful to her for the compassionate care that she gave him. She is a very special caregiver and I am pleased to recommend her.

Heidi B was a caregiver to my mom for several months. Heidi consistantly showed compassion not only to my mom but also to my dad who was suffering from burnout from caring for my mom for years. On the days that she was with my mom I would most always get a picture sent to me of the way she styled my moms hair that day, or the new polish on her nails and sometimes just a picture of my mom looking content. Also she always sent me a text at the end of her shift to tell me how my mom's appetite was, her mood that day and anything noteworthy. Also, she kept communication open regarding my dad's well being. Soon after meeting Heidi, I recommended her to a good friend of mine whose parents were in a similar situation. They too loved Heidi and called her part of the family. During my moms final days, Heidi was there to support my family and it warmed my heart seeing just how much she loved my parents after such a short time. Her tears expressed her grief and her smile and stories expressed how invested she was in the care and lives of my parents. Heidi is an excellent care giver and anyone needing her assistance would be lucky to have her! It's never easy watching your loved ones require this type of care, but having someone as loving and caring as Heidi does help the situation. Heidi is extraordinary at what she does and the fact that she does it with loving kindness each and every day is what every family member is looking for in a caregiver.

I have been very pleased with Heidi and whole heartedly recommend her! I live out of town (& country) and am the primary caregiver for my aging mother and her partner. I hired Heidi to relieve some of the stress and concerns I have for their well-being and I have been very pleased with her. Heidi’s many years of experience as a PSW are evident through her compassion, patience, and understanding working with my mom and partner who are extremely reluctant to allow outsiders into their home. Heidi has worked VERY hard to earn their trust and she has become invaluable to us! My mom and partner who are very difficult to please have come to like Heidi a lot and look forward to her visits. Heidi sends regular reports and updates addressing any concerns. It brings me great peace of mind knowing I can rely on Heidi to provide quality care and assistance.
