• “Elissa cared for my mother, Nettie, for about four years, and they formed an instant connection. She always made my mother feel heard, respected, and genuinely cared for. On difficult days, Elissa showed incredible patience and compassion, often sitting with her for hours just to bring comfort. She became one of my mother’s absolute favourites, and that meant everything to our family. I would highly recommend Elissa and the caregivers at Always Golden Care.”

  • “When I required home care following reconstructive shoulder surgery in February, Always Golden Care came to my rescue. For three weeks, Elissa provided a team of lovely, kind, and caring women who supported me through two four-hour shifts each day. Tonia was especially outstanding — intelligent, thoughtful, kind, and intuitive. I highly endorse this wonderful service. Five stars!”

  • “Elissa was caring for my 95-year-old mother since July 2023 until May 2025. She showed exceptional compassion, initiative, and dedication. She quickly understood my mother’s routines and priorities, providing support with morning care, meals, housekeeping, grocery shopping, and medical appointments. Elissa was organized, dependable, and always attentive to my mother’s needs while maintaining warmth and a wonderful sense of humour. I highly recommend Elissa for the care of an elderly person.”

  • We recently found ourselves in need of 24-hour care for our 98-year-old father after he began having difficulty walking just a few days after Christmas. We had been given the name of Always Golden Care but had not yet had the opportunity to contact them. When we called on December 29, Elissa arranged for a caregiver to be at our father’s home within just a few hours. She also came personally to help with the transition and ensure everything was properly set up. Over the following four weeks, our father received full-time care from several caregivers, all of whom were prompt, efficient, courteous, and knowledgeable. Every member of the team was compassionate, well-trained, and a great source of comfort to both our father and our family. Elissa remained in regular contact with us and was extremely accommodating whenever schedules or appointments needed adjusting. What was initially a very stressful and unfamiliar experience quickly became one that gave our family great peace of mind. We would not hesitate to use Always Golden Care again and look forward to working with Elissa and her team on a more permanent basis.”
