If you or a family member need cared for, I highly suggest a different company. This company was hired to care for my grandmother for when everyone was at work, due to different time frames of work for us, they only needed to do about 5 hours a day. They constantly no showed and never called. When we spoke to management today, after we called them.. they asked what our backup plan was to yet again another no show.... I didn't know we needed a backup plan everyday that they were supposed to provide care. With no time to call into work and be covered, my sister had to leave her job to come care

I have known the owner, Sally for years through the Rotary club. I know her to be very professional and community-minded. Although I have not utilized the services of Nightengale Nursing, as I have not had a need to, I know that Sally is a dedicated, hard-working person who gives back to our community in many many ways and supports local businesses, which I really appreciate.

Horrible owner and horrible customer service, was hired to do one job instead he created and did more work with no authorization gave us a bill 4x's the original cost at this point we had no choice to but too pay, high lack of communication, no customer skills very sloppy and unorganized work my suggestion to anyone if you're looking to pay more get no communication or politeness and if you want bad disrespectful workers and bad work then hire these guys!

My children got me a large gift certificate for services....POOR Customer service! Whenever I call to get something done I get put to voice mail and no return call. Would never refer them to anyone. When I have had work done after several attempts to book the workers were polite, professional but other office staff are incompetent.
