My mother is getting some of her in-home care from Mavencare, and Victoria, who is in charge of scheduling, has been helping us. I have been very impressed with her work. She has been very efficient, very tolerant of requests for scheduling changes, extremely patient, and very kind and personable. In particular, since this past Saturday when we lost our live-in caregiver, literally from one day to the next, she has "saved our bacon" and with a great deal of empathy at a time of extreme stress for me and my son and daughter. We have been madly scrambling to both find a new live-in and cover all the hours in the meantime. Without Victoria, I'm not sure we would have managed. She is an employee Mavencare is lucky to have, and I hope she is rewarded for her dedicated work. Cheers, Vera Szoke
We’ve been with Mavencare for many years now and have worked with Cindy who has been coordinating care for my dad. She has been amazing and keeps us well informed about changes. The caregivers have been well trained and work hard to ensure needs are met.
My father has been using Mavencare's services for over a year and we have been extremely happy with exceptional care provided by their PSW's (Mae Esther and Lillibeth). We have built relationships with them and are like family now. They have provided our family with much support that could never be duplicated. Their dedication and hard work is exceptional and with their unique qualities they each have their own method of keeping my father occupied and out of trouble. I would highly recommend Mavencare's services and will continue to use their services when need be. Even their answering service provides prompt service and messages are attended to promptly. Thank you so much!
"I learned through Kay and her training that even though a person with Alzheimer's is not able to carry on responsibilities, they can enjoy and get value out of some things like folding material and doing things that she used to do. This brought to us a new possibility that while we cannot say she is going to have a happy life because she does not have good recall, we are intent on the moment by moment experience for her to have the best life possible."

"Compared to other agencies, Mavencare actually briefs and gives me the whole careplan into full details... The team keeps me feeling like an employee, a team member... It makes you feel like you have a reason to go to work. You are a part of the team and you don't want to let them down."

"Mavencare has been incredible with my dad. I was so lost when I found out he had dementia and I didn’t know what to do. It was a devastating feeling… I called around to see what my options were. Most companies were very pushy during calls and I couldn’t trust them with my dad… I mean who would when you know they are in it just for the money? Then one day, I saw their article on my facebook that my friend shared and I decided to give them a call. James, one of the co founders of the company answered my call and he was so understanding, it felt like I was sharing my feelings with a friend. He ensured me he’ll find the best possible caregiver for my father and sent me a few articles to read in the meantime so I could learn more about dementia. After a few days, he called me and told me that he found the perfect person for my dad. Apparently he entered my dad’s interests and hobbies into their system and matched the information Mavencare caregivers to find someone most likely to get along with my father. At first, it seemed too good to be true… but now Peter has become a trusted member of our family. He takes my father to doctor’s appointments, prepares meals for him, and plays mentally stimulating games with him to keep him engaged. I don’t know what we would have done without Mavencare!"

"We would like to thank Mavencare for their constant and reliable support and home care services. Our caregiver, Shelly, was very understanding, compassionate, and professional. Shelly made sure our mother was comfortable in her last days. Because of Shelly’s efforts and Mavencare’s constant support, we were able to spend some quality time with mom, which is something I’ll always cherish and remember."

"I love helping out people, so I love this part of my job at Mavencare. They also offer learning opportunities for free and discounted rates (depending on the type of class). The staff is very friendly, understanding, and professional. They always let me know everything I need to know about the client I am going to work for and I am always confident before I step inside their homes. I feel appreciated and the rewarding work gives me a feeling of accomplishment."

"I am amazed by their communication. Having worked for other companies and feeling like it took ages to receive a response is definitely something that seems exclusive to those companies now. Mavencare sends text messages and emails to notify me whenever there is a new position available and I am able to accept or decline from within the app. They are very flexible and they accommodate my needs."
