The professional staff at Lean on We made process of finding a caregiver quick and easy. They were with us every step of the way. We can't rave too much about the people and the process.

in a time of crisis, Lean on We was professional, timely, and clear with what I needed to do to get an aide in my parents house. It allowed my mother to interview the aides so she could see the choices. My contact at Lean on We stayed in touch through out our learning journey of having an aide.

When my mother was ill and needed full-time, in-home support, LeanOnWe connected us with an excellent primary aide as well capable substitutes (often on short notice). Our primary aide, Theresa Lewis, was with us for three years and provided strong, compassionate support through end of life. We are thankful to have worked with Theresa. She enriched the last few years of my mother's life and we consider her a member of the family.

LeanOnWe provided the exact service we needed. I was struggling to find in-home care for my dad and we had tried a couple of other services. Despite long phone calls and paperwork, there was a huge gap with the other services between what was discussed and what the care person understood as their role in the house. With LeanOnWe, you get to view the profiles of the potential caregivers and give feedback. This makes it much more iterative and prevented the failures of other services. Plus before the caregiver comes to your home, you speak with them and come to an agreement on everything. LeanOnWe does a good job of not getting in between you and the caregiver. The process went so well with the first caregiver that a couple months later we asked LeanOnWe to find another to get more coverage. LeanOnWe also did a good job of communicating and finding backups when schedules got unexpectedly interrupted. I'd definitely recommend LeanOnWe to anyone looking for an in-home care provider. I'll be honest in saying that I wasn't thrilled about having to pay LeanOnWe continually in addition to the caregiver. When we got the 2nd caregiver that actually meant twice as much weekly going to LeanOnWe. Obviously this was all in the contract but it still surprised me. Unfortunately in-home care is never cheap so I understood I was paying for peace of mind and after over a year of needing caregivers, I can say that's what we got

We needed a home health aide for my wife after she was released from the hospital. We needed someone flexible in terms of times he/she could come and also the tasks. LeanOnWe screened several people and provided videos; we then spoke with 2 of them and selected one. All this within a 2 day window. The person who we hire was perfect; flexible, friendly and personable. Of course she helped out with light household chores but the real contribution was that he helped my wife with exercises that the hospital physical therapists prescribed. Within a 2 month period, my wife had recovered most of her strength, flexibility and endurance, a large part of which we attribute to the health aide's work with her on a daily basis.

My father’s last wish was to come home after 100 days in a rehabilitation center. In order for him to come home he needed live-in care that was specialized for his specific needs. Denise and her team at LeanOnWe were immediately able to find a live in home health care aide for me to interview in record time. We will forever be thankful to LeanOnWe for making my father’s last six weeks of his life at home the way he wanted with live in care.Thank you all.

Lean On We was able to help me navigate the crazy health care system at a time when I needed help. I was having difficulty getting my Uncle out of a rehab facility and setting him up at home. Other agencies could not accommodate our needs. This is when Denise and Lean On We jumped in. They continued to stay a part of our journey for a year and assisted us with fill-in care whenever it was necessary. Denise answered every question I had and was always available to me. They were there for us when my Uncle went on Hospice care. I could not have done this without them.

I write this review to praise Larisa, a Lean On We Caregiver who took care of my mother 24/7 from March 1, 2020 until her death on September 16, 2023. We interviewed Larisa while Mom was recuperating at Mary Manning after a hip operation. After my mother and the family interviewed Larisa we immediately decided to hire her. It turned out to be the best decision. Larisa is an incredible caregiver in every respect. She was devoted to my mother and did everything for her. Since my mother could not walk long distances, Larisa would take her on long walks in her wheelchair. When my daughter got married in 2021 Larisa was there to make sure that Mom had a wonderful time. As time went on Mom was unable to spend time in the wheelchair and was bedridden. Larisa always had a smile and would do everything she could do to cheer Mom up. Larisa is an amazing caregiver. She has great patience and has a great instinct for knowing when Mom needed to see a doctor or needed to contact me or other members of our family. We always knew that we could rely on Larisa. Larisa became part of the family. She shared in the celebrations of my mother, including her 100th birthday. Because I live in Connecticut and Mom lived in New York, I could not see Mom on a moments' notice. As a result of Larisa's excellent care, I always knew that Mom was being taken care of and was in the best of hands. I cannot tell you how much that peace of mind meant to me and my family. Mom loved Larisa and always felt comfortable with Larisa. My family and I think the world of Larisa for all that she did for Mom. Larisa is the best caregiver. When we hired Larisa, we never imagined that she would be Mom's caregiver for 3 years and six months. My mother's last 3 years were more comfortable and richer because Larisa took care of her. Larisa is the most caring, dependable and compassionate caregiver. We were so lucky to find Larisa to take care of Mom. Mitchell Geller
