I am most grateful and appreciative for the miraculous work Ms. Zaydenberg and her agency have been doing to make my mother's life meaningful, enjoyable and, even more important, happy and actually possible. In my strongest opinion, if not for Ms. Zaydenberg personally and her most wonderful staff, by now my mother would not be able to enjoy her life and would, most likely, be in a vegetative state if alive at all. To fully explain the depth of my gratitude, I have to describe my situation. Until last year my mother had been an almost fully-functional senior adult who was able to live independently. One unfortunate night she suffered a fall, and, while she did not seem to had broken anything, over the next few days she started to decline cognitively and ended up in the hospital. When my mother was discharged from the hospital, I took her to one of better rehabilitation facilities in Pittsburgh. Then, over the next few weeks, I learned enough about elderly care that I can probably write a book now. While I encountered many wonderful and caring individuals at both the hospital and the rehabilitation center, I also formed a strong opinion about what is very wrong with the elderly care provided through rehabilitation centers and nursing homes. As everyone knows, elderly care is exceptionally expensive, however, the money does not buy personal comfort, the human warmth and staff's individual attention to the elderly person. What's worse, while visiting my mother at the rehab, I realized that, for practically every single patient, the amount of attention the aids normally pay to such individuals is inversely proportional to patient's ability to communicate with the staff. As person's cognitive abilities decline, most people stop treating such an individual as a human being, such patients are allowed no dignity. I was shocked to discover that the less capable a patient becomes at explaining him or herself, the less care he or she would receive. I am very grateful to Ms. Zaydenberg and her staff for being exactly the opposite of what I described just above, for saving my mother from misery and for all their help beyond what I could have reasonably expected from anybody. Even before this unfortunate incident with my mother I knew about ComForcare Senior Services on Murray Ave. in Squirrell Hill, however, as my mother lives outside of their nominal service area, I did not think that they would take her case. I am very fortunate that when we called ComForcare, upon hearing our circumstances, they took an active role helping us along the way with everything and anything. Many a time Ms. Zaydenberg was on the phone with me helping me understand the best ways of caring for my mother and for navigating the very complex elderly care support system. I am very grateful to the agency for providing the most wonderful staff to care for my mother. I would like to say a few more words about ComForcare personnel and staff, these absolutely fantastic individuals who are making my mother's life happy and meaningful every day. In my strongest opinion, Ms. Zaydenberg's agency, her style of running it, the quality of staff and her talent in identifying such people are the key to overhauling the elderly care system. The people Ms. Zaydenberg hires to care for elderly individuals in my mother's condition are unique and precious. These are not the kind of people one would be able to find to work for minimum wage. These are very capable and intelligent individuals whose qualities exceed and reach far beyond what one would normally expect from an aid at a rehab. To paraphrase the now-famous slogan, the people who make America great are those such as Ms. Zaydenberg's ComForcare staff and herself. There is no way I can repay these wonderful people for how much they have done for my mother and me. No money equivalent exists for repaying such debts, all I can do here is to express my deepest appreciation, respect, and the most heartfelt gratitude.

I want to express my deepest gratitude on behalf of your worker. I had an emergency with another caregiver of my parents and I asked for yoiur caregiver's help because I was unavailable. She immediately went to see my parents. She fed them and made sure that they were fine. She also left and came back later in the day to check on them. Her care, attention, understanding, and compassion on this occasion (and always) was and is superior. I am lucky to have her as a caregiver.

Comforcare Senior Services will take care of your needs and on top of that make you feel as though you completely deserve every last bit of service. I was also very upset with the negative remarks regarding this company by other users. They are absolutely wonderful! My aunt recieve services and requires a lot of attention and patience. We have been working with ComForcare for almost 3 year and have absolutely no complaints. This company get a 5 stars all the way.

My grandmother needs alot of care, and this home health agency provides that. Not only does she have a home provider, but the agency calls every other day to check to see if the patient is doing good. Comforcare gets a 5 stars from me.

ComForcare was really a great company to work with. Everyone there is really helpful and the caregivers that helped my father were very caring and attentive. Although it's never easy to let someone you don't know into your home, I am truly grateful for Comforcare and the level of professionalism that they displayed when helping my dad.

I don't know who wrote the previous review-probably somebody who is working for Comforcare. Most of their workes are young foreign girls who does not know anything: no CPR, no formal training-nothing. Some of them don't even speak English. They don't perform background check on their workers like other places. Couple of those girls told me personally that their work visa is expired already but they are not going back to their country. Nice to find out that this offer hires illegal immigrants.

I first contacted Comforcare Senior Services for my mother, who had recently moved home after spending time at the hospital. This was an extremely difficult time for my family, who while wanting my mother to continue to live independently, worried about her ability to participate in daily tasks. The staff at Comforcare addressed all of my concerns and continue to provide exceptional service to my mother. They are friendly, caring and have high standards of service. If you are struggling with a similar situation you can be sure, that they will help you every step of the way!
