Had the pleasure of working with staff from ALC Home Health Care. All of the people from the CNA, OT, PT and nurses were very caring and empathetic to my situation. Christian and the office staff were very helpful as well. I couldn't say more positive things about the care I received! Keep up the great work!

My mother has been receiving services from ALC for several years. I couldn’t be happier with the service that they give to her, and I truly feel that they have enriched and lengthened her life. They keep me informed on any incidents or progress that she is making. They truly treat she and Her children as family. I am so thankful for all they have given us.
