Do you have any testimonials from families that you can share?

“Today was worth every penny I have ever spent on Help in the Home! I cannot tell you how much it meant to see my daughter grapple with the fear and terror and walk out the door to meet you.  I saw her struggle more clearly and more powerfully than I ever have. Thanks also to the team. I know everyone on our team made this day possible. Mental health is a journey, not a destination.” —Grateful Mom

“I want to personally thank you for the great job you’ve been doing with my sister. She’s really responded to you and taken your advice and direction to heart. This is the longest stretch in years that she hasn’t been to urgent care/Emergency Room.”  –Grateful sister

“I’m happy that my client is transitioning so well with Help in the Home( HITH) . I think that he has always wanted some sense of control of his life and he is now able to do so. Thanks for all you do, HITH, you are the best.” — Grateful Care Manager

“We want you to know how much we appreciate the professional care and high standards with which each of you and your staff always use in your daily care of the clients and clients’ family members too. We know the very careful sanitation protocols that your organization started using last week and we applaud all of you for being such fantastic decision makers and caregivers. Your organization has always been extremely proactive with all of the circumstances that come your way. Obviously the Covid-19 virus is going to continue to have huge impacts on all of the greater region and our personal lives for some time. My family wanted you all to know, and your entire staff, that we have everyone in our thoughts as well as your families. You all work so hard to provide amazing services for your clients, so we wanted you to know how appreciative we are for ALL that you do! J is so very fortunate to be a part of The Help In The Home community and family which you provide. We just wanted to give thanks for all that you do. Penny and I will be sure to stay in close touch as we all work through this virus concern. Stay safe, healthy, and well. – Affectionately, Rob and Penny

Does your team help in crisis intervention circumstances? 

Because we are with our clients and families long-term, and complete mental health issues have their ups and downs, we do stand alongside our clients and families when needed. First and foremost, we are creating stability for the development of a crisis prevention plan. Yet, we are there to facilitate crisis intervention when needed.   In addition to the mental health case management services, we can also partner with our sister organization Help in the Home Clinical Services to provide in-home psychotherapy.
