FirstLight Home Care of Licking and Fairfield Counties

Jade from First Light was my father’s primary care giver. She always took the best care of my father from personal care to cooking to laundry etc. Any time there was a slight change with my father she would be in contact with me. My father waited for her to arrive and was happy to see her. When we needed 24 hour care at times all staff was professional and took care of my father as their own. My father absolutely wanted to go to his granddaughter’s (my daughter’s) wedding.Jade was able to get my father ready to go and drove him to the church and then the venue where she stayed by his side at all times. She then took him back home. When my father needed a long term care facility, Jade was able to provide him companionship and still kept me updated with any changes. Dena was great with scheduling and any questions I might have. She also kept in contact during any hospital stays my father had. Jade is considered part of the family. First Light is highly recommended!

The administrative staff and caregivers have given our 88 year old mom the ability to stay in her home and her family peace of mind. The scheduling team is accessible and responsive… and have created a consistent monthly schedule, giving mom a predictable routine. Dependable caregivers ensure no services/shifts are missed and use their time with mom to not only address practical concerns but share moments of joy. This agency is an example of home care at its best!

The amazing caregivers and staff at First Light/Newark have provided us with service that has not only met, but exceeded our expectations. Having my 96-year old father at home while we work through the day, they insure that everything that is needed for both his physical and mental well being are met. Bethany, you are your team have a lot to be proud of!

I can’t say enough positive things about First Light, the staff there, and the service they provide. Reliable, competent, courteous, and compassionate care. Great support at a time when we needed it most.

So grateful for the flexibility in the hours needed in my situation. Workers were very caring and knowledgeable. I am very grateful and would recommend them 100%

I am so thankful to have First Light to help with my loved one. As a Social Worker in Healthcare it’s hard to have the time needed to help with everything that they might need and the ladies at First Light have helped take the weight off my shoulders. Not only are they there to help with daily needs but have taken my loved one to Dr appointments. When there are staffing changes they are great to make sure they have the right fit to help her. I am so grateful for them to help me during this process. Its completely different when you are dealing with family than your patients. I can’t thank them enough for their expertise. I would recommend them 100%.

First Light has provided care services to my 96 year old mother for over two years. The past few weeks have presented us with several challenges and First Light Newark has exceeded our expectations. Shout out to Bethany, Dena and Kennedy for their response to our ever changing scheduling, our regular caregivers Ashley and Jennifer as well as to Kiesha, Anita, Samantha and Andrea for filling in the gaps. Thank you!

First Light was amazing to work with. They were able to meet with me the day I called and were able to provide overnight and day care to start when I needed them. The office staff and the home aides I worked with were compassionate and helpful. When you hear the word "hospice" it is overwhelming. In a very short period of time you need to arrange care for your loved one and you hope you are doing the right thing. First Light Home Care was the right thing for us. Highly recommend.
