My Father has had several strokes and is Hemiplegic (Paralyzed on one side) and is wheelchair bound. He requires daily home care from morning to night. We hired Maria Martinez, the owner of In Home Quality Senior Care for this service. We put down a huge deposit to ensure his care.
After taking his deposit, Maria came to our home to work, she invited her boyfriend to stay in our house to make himself at home while she worked. Then after a few days she left for Mexico, leaving one care giver to work 7 days a week, non stop with no alternative plans or back-up should something happen to that newly hired care giver.
Understand, my father, if not assisted, cannot fend for himself or even get out of bed. Because of this insecurity we fired Maria and her agency. Maria was fired before all of my father's deposit money was used and we requested she return the remaining amount. She refused. Maria ignored our repeated calls and attempts to contact her. We had to take her to small claims court to obtain a judgement against her and we won. Maria has yet to pay my father back.
Maria claims her agency is Christian based. Ripping off senior citizens is not Christian behavior, in my humble opinion.
