The Cohen’s were impressed with Anthony Mack from the beginning of Sam’s care and requested we send him out week after week.
 

We truly have the best caregivers available in the Coachella Valley.

A Personal Note to Debbie


Hope you are doing well and that you remember me! You took care of my mom Dee Kostas and my grandmother Doris Hatfield in Rancho Mirage. I just wanted to let you know that my mom Dee passed away in January after being here in Kentucky with my sister and I for about 7 months.

 

I also wanted to let you know that you were the only person who ever recognized what was wrong with my mom! You said you thought she had Lewy Body Dementia (which I had never heard of before!) and although we were never able to get a definitive diagnosis, my sister and I are convinced that is what she suffered from. I was able to get her to the neurologist in Palm Desert who thought she had Parkinson's, but as you probably know, the two diseases are related and look similar to each other. Our doctor here referred her for neuro-psych testing but she refused to go to the appointment! She lived in total denial until the end.

She did pretty well here for about 6 months...but then she sort of "slipped off a cliff" in December and we called hospice in January. It was an incredibly painful and difficult journey for my sister and I, and I feel like we will be scarred for life. We feel like we could have done more but also know that God was going to take her no matter what we did. We tried to make her journey as easy and painless as possible.

Anyway, thank you again for all your help. I never did understand why my mom acted so weird all the time (not wanting to pay your bills!) but I understand now that she just couldn't process it all, both because of her fear for my grandmother and her own failing health.

I hope things are starting to return to normal in California. It has been a long, difficult few years for the world and my family and I'm glad to finally start to find my life again.

Take care and God bless.

110 Years Old


I would like to thank you for all the years of outstanding in home service that you have provided for my father C. F. Larry Matthews.

As you know, on May 1, 2016 Dad turned 110 years old and is now the oldest man in America. I am absolutely certain that he would have not achieved this level of longevity without the caring professionals service provided by your staff.

Thanks again,

Steve Matthews

Stayed at Home


George and I wanted to thank you for taking care of Gerry Pirr, our aunt.

We really did not know what to do, and could not get her to agree to the kind of help she needed. We were so worried about her, and after you organized everything and made her understand what her options were, it was a great relief.

She did get what she wanted which was to stay in her home as long as she was still here. Without your help, she could easily have ended up in a home.

All of your staff that we met were so patient with her, and very kind.

Thank you so much,

George & Sue Radmillers

Trust & Patience


I'm taking a moment to Thank You all at Caring Hands of the Desert for the great care you have always given to both of my parents.

First of all as a medical professional myself I knew what I wanted for my Father whom you cared for from April 7, 2008 and then you provided care for my mother without interruption and are currently caring for her. First of all trust and patience are the words that come to me when I think of Caring Hands, but of course the compassion and knowing exactly who would fit the needs of your clients is what I hear most from other clients I have referred to your agency. Also, the communication and professionalism you both practice is of the highest quality. I am honored to call you both friends. Thank you all at Caring Hands for answering the phone no matter what time of day I have always felt comfort in the security of knowing that is not just a marketing promise.

I have seen how much the desert has grown and how the competition has grown with it, just know that I will always refer and share with the community that you are my agency of choice for my parents.

Thanks for all you do,

Enid Weissman
