Unreliable ...especially their psw's ..some do not even show up for their scheduled shifts or the company will call you just prior to the scheduled time saying they have nobody just hours before leaving you stranded.. When staff do show, they want to leave immediately and not even give you the full hour.....MOST IMPORTANT they dont come with proper PPE ..rather with homemade masks and no face shields or proper foot wear..We are trusting them with our elderly and they should be in proper PPE to protect our most vulnerable

Their home care nurses are generally very kind, however scheduling has always been a nightmare. I'm receiving treatment long term with a fixed 2 weeks on and 2 weeks off schedule from the doctor. Most of the days I don't know when the nurse is coming and spend the day waiting, which I do understand the nurses are super busy, so some waiting on my end is understandable. However, sometimes they forget me completely off the schedule and I spend the whole day waiting and wondering if they forgot me. When my primary nurse is working, she never forgets me, but when she is off, the scheduler seems to

I would like to let Spectrum Therapeutics know how grateful my family is for the amazing service that Toni Caulfied has bestowed on our family. Tonis take charge approach is professional, intuitive and respectful. My sister Georgette Djan suffers from severe MS, and my 85-year-old mother, now awaiting back surgery, has been her primary care-giver. Toni has brought compassion and swift problem solving skills to put in place PSW care-giver arrangements tailored to our very unique situation. Toni has made sure that a consistent team of PSWs attend to both my mom and sister so that familiarity

Worst agency to work for! As a PSW, the company does not care at all about their employees treating them like they do not matter at all. No benefits and bad pay. No respect and care for employees. Cheap agency. Also they will assign you clients after your day is done without asking you first. Disgusting. With this pandemic going on, everyday is like a battlefield working long hours with this agency but not a single dollar salary raise and still no benefits. Overall terrible agency. Will resign soon.

Great experience with Spectrum! The nurse who cared for my parent was caring, on-time, and went above and beyond to take care of my mother. Thank you for your dedication. This is a top-notch organization.
