Dean Bellefeuille, President and owner of At Home Independent Living, Inc., stated, “First – It is imperative to our business to be able to demonstrate some tangible measures for individuals to use to assist them in choosing an agency to care for themselves or their loved ones. Reliability, consistency, and a “client-first” approach are not necessarily easy to demonstrate to potential clients, so our partnership with Home Care Pulse provides a mechanism for us to gauge our services to allow for an impartial measure of what our current clients and employees identify as our strengths. Second – The unbiased perceptions and information we receive from the monthly surveys has allowed us to identify areas for improvement, make adjustments and measure the effectiveness of corrective measures on a monthly basis. Third – The certified reviews represented through our relationship with Caring.com from our current and past customers provide an opportunity for potential clients researching home care options to determine and select the best agency for their needs. We could not be more pleased with these awards and we will continue to strive for excellence in all our services.”

In addition, for both 2019 and 2020, At Home was further recognized with the Caring Star Award for Service Excellence from Caring.com.

The Best of Home Care Awards highlight the top-performing home care businesses in the nation. Home Care Pulse believes that by honoring these providers, families looking for in-home care for a loved one will be able to recognize and choose a trusted home care provider. “Our goal at Home Care Pulse is to empower home care businesses to reach their goals and deliver the best home care possible,” says Erik Madsen, CEO of Home Care Pulse. “We are happy to recognize At Home Independent Living, Inc. as a Best of Home Care award winning agency.

Caring.com reviews help Americans research and select the best senior care providers for aging or ailing loved ones. In multiple research studies, family caregivers have indicated that they turn to the Internet and consumer reviews when narrowing their options among home care agencies in their area, and have relied on these perspectives as much as or more so than suggestions from professionals such as doctors or hospitals. Originally published in January 2012 as the first of its kind in senior living and expanded to home care in 2017, the Caring Stars annual list has become a go-to guide of the best home care agencies nationwide. To be considered for the award, Caring Stars agencies met a set of rigorous criteria based on ratings and reviews from seniors and their family members. Caring.com senior care experts also conducted a reviews-integrity audit and took other quality-assurance measures before determining the Caring Stars of 2020. “Congratulations to At Home Independent Living for being among these highly-rated agencies achieving such significant praise from their customers in online reviews,” Caring.com’s CEO Jim Rosenthal said. “They stand out as among the best in the nation for 2020.”
