Client, L.C.
"All of my mom’s aides were extraordinary – kind, thoughtful, and very helpful. Despite initial concerns about a language barrier with the night aide, I used a translation app on my phone that allowed us to communicate effectively. The daytime aides were equally impressive, treating my mom and her home with great care and kindness. Their dedication and understanding of my mom's needs provided us with peace of mind. The aides left a lasting, familial impression on us."
Client., L.B.
"My mom receives home care from Richmond Home Need Services, Inc. We have been using this service for almost three years now. The services received from Richmond Home are excellent. The staff is always professional and informative, and they ensure that I am properly informed about my mom's care. We recently had changes to her service plan and everything went smooth. Her aides are both warm, caring and make sure my mom has everything she needs for the day. They are both attentive to my mom's health needs. I am very grateful to all the staff at Richmond Home and would highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you for everything that you do."

"Over the past few years Richmond Home Need Services, Inc. has been providing healthcare aides to staff my Mother’s home and her needs . Now at 96 years of age her health is naturally declining day to day. The coordinator who oversees the staff is wonderful, on point and ensures my mom always has coverage. The four regular aides who work at the house are the most wonderful and caring helpers I could ever find. They have patience and are sincerely kind, caring and trustworthy. They help with all mom’s daily needs and are in contact with me constantly . God sent me these wonderful girls and I don’t know what I would do without them. Each one of them are professional and so competent. I give the agency a ten-star rating."
Family Member of Client, J.S.
"The staff and all the aides who are taking care of my mom are amazing. The aides know her so well they notice any changes beforehand and notify our family promptly.
The weekday and weekend aides, as well as her case coordinator, do a remarkable job.”
Family Member of Client, J.M.
"I cannot adequately express how grateful we are for the exceptional care my mother received. My mother was under hospice care for approximately five years, and during that time we were fortunate to have Stella Orton providing around-the-clock support. In particular, Y.P. and M.S. cared for my mother during her final three years and treated her as if she were family. The attentiveness, compassion, and genuine love they showed my mother—and our family—are not easily found. They played a critical role in helping us navigate an incredibly difficult period and gave us great peace of mind knowing my mother was in such caring hands. My mother was a strong advocate for both the community and individuals with disabilities. One of the last things she shared with me years ago was her wish to pass at home. The care she received made it possible for me to honor that wish with dignity and peace. Instilling values like these within an organization is no small task. While I’m sure there are many days when you hear more criticism than praise, please know that the values you helped cultivate at Stella Orton are deeply appreciated and do not go unnoticed.”
Family Member of Client, Matt M.
"I wanted to take time to let you know how grateful I am, my family is, for the gentle and loving care provided to my aunt. She was an amazing community leader, decades of hard work to ensure people with disabilities and those who struggle with stigma received support and care they deserved.
My aunt served as a mentor to me as we established PCCS 25 years ago. She was the president of the PCCS board of directors up until 2013 when she became aware of cognitive issues, which eventually resulted in her resignation from the board. She struggled with memory, communication, and then physical challenges. The Home Health Support Staff from Stella Orton have been amazing- I'm so very grateful and so appreciative for their tender care."
