Testimonials
What Families Are Saying About CareO'Clock
From seamless online booking to compassionate, dependable caregivers to first-person experiences from families across Nova Scotia.
Claude, Sylva, Haston, and Abdul were all remarkably helpful, respectful, and communicative. We needed last minute overnight sitters over a holiday weekend for my father in the hospital, and they jumped in to help. They were kind and thoughtful to myself, my father, and the nursing staff. We could not be more pleased with their service in all ways!
I had a question about changing my dads care schedule. What stood out to me was how quickly they responded and how clear the communication felt. I was updated quickly and professionally, which gave me much more confidence in their care delivery process.
I wanted a companion for mom while I went for a wedding in Cole Harbour. Darlene arrived on time, treated my mother with dignity, and made her feel comfortable until I came back. Despite mom's early dementia, she remembered and talked about Darlene for days.
“We are dedicated to delivering exceptional care with compassion, respect, and unwavering excellence, ensuring your well-being is always our top priority”
