"I second [the recommendation of] this organization [and] their Home Care and Companionship model, matching people really nicely and well with a senior who can help them and care for them.” - Margie Hackett, Manager of Population Health and Transitional Care, Suburban Hospital
“Seniors Helping Seniors transformed my view of what an agency like this could be. Never previously having needed to engage with an elder care service, I was reluctant when my aging mother first needed support in her home after a hospitalization several months ago. What my family and I found was an amalgam of competence, expertise, reliability, responsiveness, warmth, and an incredibly personal touch. This has been a blessing. As Mom now needs more services, SHS and its amazing leader, Ben Chernow, have provided support every step of the way. And his team is helping us begin the likely transition to assisted living in the future. Kudos and gratitude!”
"You guys were the best thing that happened to my dad and I am eternally grateful, a year later, for everything you guys did. You saved the day, in so many different ways."
"Seniors Helping Seniors in Bethesda has been a wonderful resource for our family as we navigated care for our loved one with dementia. The caregivers are not only compassionate but also highly skilled in addressing the unique needs that come with dementia care. They take the time to engage with our loved one, ensuring they feel supported and valued. It's been such a relief to find a service that genuinely understands the challenges of dementia and offers personalized care. We are incredibly grateful for the peace of mind this has given our family!"
"My family tried a couple of different agencies prior to Seniors Helping Seniors. Our experience with the other agencies were all very similar, but our experience with Seniors Helping Seniors has been very different. The caregivers always show up on time and get along well with my mom. They also engage with her rather than watch tv or play on their phone. They regularly go for walks and go out to lunch, and they help with things that other agencies wouldn’t do, like pay bills and help her with paperwork. My family has been very impressed with Seniors Helping Seniors and are very glad to have found them."
"Seniors Helping Seniors is an invaluable resource. My mom loves the home health aides. They have been an immense help to her, and she looks forward to their visit everyday. I like how easy it is to communicate with the owner and his staff. This the best decision I had made in a pretty difficult time."
