Reviews Compass Care
June 2024
Compass care in Brooklyn provided me with the care I needed. Their service is great. The entire staff were warm, receptive and empathetic. They are attentive and answers all your questions. They are in no hurry to be dismissive.
June 2024
To say my mother is independent and stubborn is an understatement ;-). She is 86 years old and has lived alone for the past 40 years in our family home (with lots of stairs). Imagine our horror when, after emergency stomach surgery and a 10 day hospital stay, we had to figure out her aftercare, at home, in that big house (with lots of stairs)! My siblings and I were not comfortable looking after her straight out of the hospital. (Nor were we emotionally equipped to get her to follow the physician's guidelines). We needed professionals, who was not only had the medical training to care for an octogenarian, straight out of a long hospital stay, but also had the acute emotional intelligence to negotiate what was sure to be a rocky road. Enter Dana Bos and her team at Compass Care. Dana came highly recommended from a family friend, who's elderly father (one of my mother's most trusted friends) had just had a hospital stay and long home recovery. Their high praise of Compass Care convinced my mother, who was skeptical of anyone looking in her home, to give Dana and Compass Care, a try. We reached out to Dana will my mother was still in the hospital. Her warm and informative email gave us hope. She provided us with information on their 2 Week Hospital Stay Package. We look for a good emotional and personality fit since the home setting is so intimate, and personality fit is so critical to care and well-being. Dana wrote in her email. She also offered to work as working with us to customize a schedule based on the recommendations of my mother's physician as well as coordinate with the discharge planner at the hospital. Dana came to the house that weekend, with Director of Clinical, Coleen Nevin to do a home safety assessment. After our extensive grilling of these woman our fears were finally quelled and we opted to have an aide sleep at the house for a week, and a night aide for the first couple of nights. Dana was flexible and suggested we reassess our needs after a few days. Dana's choice for the aide was Stacey Richards, and sent us her bio, another reassuring touch. The next day, Stacey accompanied my sister-in-law and I to the hospital for the discharge, we were both nervous about taking her home. Navigating the release process with skill and ease, Stacey got my mother out of the hospital and into the car without a complaint. But the big challenge awaited, getting her up the stairs and into bed. My mother insisted on climbing the first set of stairs by herself How they navigated this would lay the ground rules for the next couple of days, I tensed. Stacey instinctually understood that the stairs represented independence to my mother and backed off. Giving my mother the space she needed and at the same time, close enough to reassure my sister-in-law and I that she could catch her if my mother faltered. Having won the initial battle, I sensed my mother relax, allowing Stacey to hold her elbow for the second set of stairs. As my mother slept, Stacey prepared her favorite dinner, lamb chops. Dana let us know that Coleen would be stopping by to make sure that my mother had settled in and everything was in order. My sister-in-law and I relaxed. We felt that my mother was in skilled hands and we were supported. There are many special touches I could tell you about Dana and the team at Comfort Care. Dana's visit that week, her very deep conversation with my mother about the best Peking Duck in the neighborhood or the aide's detailed shift notes and family room website, They made a very stressful time easier. Dana's follow up calls with my mother after the aides had gone, just to check in. (And tell her about a Chinese restaurant in Yonkers). Offers to provide her with a trainer that specialized in geriatric fitness, a person to come a couple times a week to clean the house, my family now has a safety net. We were so impressed with Compass Care we recommended them to my sister's 97 year old widowed mother-in-law who lives alone. We know that the time will come when my mother will need care again, Dana is on speed dial.

After a very bad fall resulting in broken bones and not having good balance, I asked for help from Compass Care to send someone who could help me get to doctors and start physical therapy in order to get back to an active and normal life… That is when "Robert" entered my life and began taking exceptionally good care of me for next two full months. He was my driver, care taker, watch dog, and lunch companion ! He was so pleasant to be with, very caring, and my safety and needs were his main priority. My rapid recovery is totally due to the care and concern provided by Robert and the CompassCare crew. If you ever need support and excellent care , especially in your own home and environment, this is the best!
May 2024
I found Compass Care to be an extremely professional home health aide service. I appreciated the meeting with a registered nurse supervisor even though I was only employing aides. The aides sent by Compass had very impressive qualifications and lots of experience. Although we only needed these services post- op for a short period of time, I have every intention of engaging Compass Care again should the need arise. I recommend them highly.
February 2024
Compass Care arranged for post-op, at-home nursing services that helped my mother recover from a difficult surgery and thrive. Very knowledgeable staff and highly personalized approach to customer care.
August 2023
I had high expectations for an organization founded by a gerontologist and I wasn't disappointed. First, we received an unexpectedly high level of personal attention (from a nurse and other staff) who interviewed my mother to determine her needs and preferences. And this was at no cost. Then CompassCare provided the best possible caregiver who constantly found ways to engage my mother. Staff kept in touch with me and generously provided information and guidence that helped my mother age in place in the home where she lived for more than 75 years. We contracted with two other agencies before finding CompassCare. There is no comparison. CompassCare is superb.

Compasscarellc management as the highest level of care and empathy for clients and staff care and renumerations in the care and health industry .They deserve more than 5stars
May 2023
Our aide was outstanding in every way. She is kind, professional, understated, engaged, safety minded, prompt, responsible, responsive and a pleasure to be with. My mother loved the time they spent together and felt safe and well care for. I can't imagine a better situation that allowed both mom and all of us to maximize the celebrations at my son's wedding.
December 2022
Our family's experience at CompassCare has been truly heartwarming. They provide full-time live-in home carers for our elderly father, and the carers they've found for him have been extraordinarily gifted, devoted, empathetic professionals who bring great warmth and cheer into everybody's lives. The staff--including a trained nurse--is always there for you, anticipating and responding to any questions or concerns, and the level of attentiveness, medical expertise, and care is immensely reassuring. I recommend CompassCare wholeheartedly!

Recently, a Compass Care director gave a presentation at our church. It was thorough, compassionate and gave us hope for helping save the lives of these unborn babies and encouraging the mom's. I'm so encouraged that they are getting out and presenting love and compassion as well as the gospel. Great resource for unplanned pregnancies.
April 2022
It’s such a great privilege to say that I’m a Compass Care Associate ( CCA). Recently I was able to refinance my home and it’s only because of my job with Compass Care. Full time work and a competitive salary made it possible. It’s definitely the best place to work.
March 2022
CompassCare brought me top quality care, comfort and assistance after my knee replacement surgery. The Care Team Manager and RN put me at ease beginning with the first phone call, and then with the pre-op home visit. Nervous about the surgery, CompassCare assured me that I would be in excellent hands and well cared for upon my return home. The CNA met me at the hospital in New York City, assisted with the discharge and accompanied my husband and I in the car back to our home in CT. She anticipated my every need, kept me safe, and made sure I was comfortable at all times. Even though I only needed short term assistance from CompassCare, they provided me with the highest level of care and kept in contact with me throughout my recovery. I felt so comforted by the CNA (we were a great match) and with the whole CompassCare team. My experience with CompassCare could not have been better!
March 2022
Totally professional home health agency that handled our family needs quickly and efficiently. Compassionate staff helped set up the coverage we needed within 24 hours.
March 2022
Compass Care provided a certified CNA who provided high quality care. She was intelligent, caring and personable. The agency did a thorough interview to help make a successful match. In addition, they provided backup resources from a Registered Nurse on call. My only reservation is they are very expensive compared to private care that you can arrange on your own with some research and networking.
March 2021
When I was looking for a health aide for my mom, I contacted Compass Care on a Saturday, with an impossible two day deadline and a huge winter storm in the forecast. They immediately went into action, got my mother home from the hospital in a blizzard and was there to help get her back on her feet for the next month. I would highly recommend them.
February 2021
Compass Care saved our family. When my mother-in-law wasnt able to drive anymore or care for herself properly in her own home, we were faced with the tough decision to have her live with us, place her in an assisted living or let her continue to live at home with help, which was her wish. After several falls, we were hesitant for her to be alone. Compass Care guided us through the process and it was smooth sailing with the caregivers who were placed with her. Unlike friends who have used other home care services, Compass Care rarely had turnover and the caregivers were patient with my mother-in-law who could be stubborn. She was a pediatric nurse for 50+ years, so she didnt accept help or follow instructions easily, but Compass Care, from the CEO down to the office staff treated her as an equal. They were patient and kind. We were relieved that she was safe and being taken care by people who treated her like one of the family. Even now that she has passed, staff still remember her and they have helped us find care for my father who lives in another part of the country. It is concierge, so its more expensive than other caregiver companies, but so worth it. We miss the staff at Compass Care, but were happy to know exactly where to go if were in that position again.
February 2021
A far cry above the typical home health care agency. Our health care aides have been great with my parents, so knowledgeable and caring, so after 6 months its like theyre part of our family. The rest of the team at Compass Care is very attentive and they all work well together. Thanks so much, Compass Care!
January 2021
This has been a very difficult year for so many reasons - Having the team at Compass Care be by my and my moms side has been one of the few saving graces of 2020. It has allowed me to have complete peace of mind, knowing that when I cant be there my mom is safe and very well cared for. Olivia and Edebar are like angels - so warm and kind, attentive and responsible. They treat my mom as if she were a family member, and not just a job. Dana has been fantastic from the start - completely empathetic to my situation, full of information and resources, on top of everything. Compass Care has provided me and my mom with a whole excellent team, including a nurse practitioner and a care team manager - there are regular Zoom meetings where I can bring up any questions or concerns, and everyone can compare notes and discuss thoughts. It is worth the cost, and I am incredibly grateful to everyone there. Thank you and Happy New Year to all of you!!
January 2021
We really love Compass Care. Theyve been extremely professional and responsive in all respects, and every person weve interacted with is, first and foremost, compassionate and caring. We know my mom is in great hands!
January 2021
We have been caring for my aunt with Alzheimers in for the past 3 years since she was released back home in NYC from a hip fracture repair. When we took over the case, the previous caregivers were inexperienced in caring for dementia patients and were only able to feed her Ensure and never took her outside for walks. After 6 months of working with my Aunt, CompassCare caregivers were able to get my aunt back to a whole food diet and had her up and about again. She was able to walk around her block in Manhattan for the first time in 5 years! She continues to do well having just celebrated her 92nd birthday. I am so proud of our company, our caregivers and the care and service we are able to provide.
December 2020
They were excellent in every way. And I am not someone who uses superlatives lightly. The caretakers were caring and competent and their coordinator was professional and always available. I strongly recommend their service to even the most demanding and discerning of clients. They will impress even those of you who feel you never can find full value, yes, they will impress even you.
November 2020
Back in June my mom was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. She lost her ability to walk very quickly and it was becoming more and more clear she needed full time care. That was when I found Compass Care. Compass Care is the most amazing company in the world. They provided care to my mom in a way that I didnt even think was possible. They made themselves available, they were accommodating to changes, and they went out of their way to be a resource to me as well. Not only is their staff wonderful but the aids that they employ are equally amazing! My mom ended up passing away in December and not only did they come to my moms funeral, they also have continued to offer support to me during this difficult time. If you are looking for a home care agency, look no further. I highly recommend Compass Care and will absolutely be using them in the future if the situation presents itself again.
October 2020
Compass Care has provided caring and conscientious home health aides for my stepmother who are responsible and empathetic. They all try their best to be sure she gets her medications and is comfortable and secure. The agency is well-run and responsive.

Compass Care has become our go to agency - running a concierge practice, our patients expect only the best and most qualified referrals. Compass Care has come through for us every time - the health care workers they put in place are caring, knowledgeable, and dependable. They have been responsive to our needs as well as our patients and always available should any problems arise. We have seen our share of care agencies and we can truly say Compass Care is a step above the rest.

Our family could not be more impressed with the level of care as well as the immediate and thoughtful response to any questions or needs we may have - at any time. We really feel that Compass Care is a partner in helping us care for our 95 year-old uncle. We are deeply grateful!
