Last year (June) we had hired MBA Non Profit Solutions, Inc. To provide management services to our disabled son, they were referred to us by my son's Service Coordinator through Service Coordination, inc. Little did we know the owners of this company "Marco" and Laura Fisher, had never provided this specific service to disabled persons before, yet they were demanding to be paid $55.00 per hour with several thousand dollars for start up fees. This amount totally exceeded the highest allowable amount by the state which sent up the first red flag for me in dealing with this company.
They had no experience and wanted to be paid top dollar which would typically be paid to someone with at least SOME previous experience and references to provide in this specific area of service. Once we negotiated through the fact that they would be paid the allowable amount per the sate guidelines, Laura Fisher continued to be unavailbe, taking weeks to even get a return phone call and would only show up on payday, then we wouldn't see her again for weeks.
There was always an excuse from I sprained my ankle, my car broke down, I was in a class, I lost my phone, etc. None of these reasons were excuse enough to not return phone calls and/or e-mails for weeks on end. Laura did all of her work remotely which was completely fruitless, but I had no way to prove that her time sheets were falsified other than the fact that there were absolutely no results from the supposed hours she worked and the thousands of dollars she was paid for accomplishing nothing.
Once we realized that this company was out for money and not the best interest of our disabled son, we decided to cut our losses and terminated our contract with them in November. After firing Laura and having to repeatedly remind her that she was violating HIPPA by contacting my sons service providers after our contract was terminated, she moved on to file a false accusation to the sate that we were neglecting our son. Her only claim would be how much time we actually spent in my sons room with him and his nurses and/or staff, and the last time I checked, that's not neglect.
Every one of my children are extremely well cared for and loved. Of course the complaint was dropped due to lack of reason, lack of evidence, and the dozens of character and witness statements we would have readily available, but the fact that she would attack a family like this shows complete lack of empathy and compassion for the lives of our disabled and their families.
MBA Non Profit Solutions, Inc. Should not be in business and they should not be allowed to profit from the disabled. They feel is okay to squander money from the disabled and then attack them when they can't make any more money off of them. This is outrageous and if I help only one family from going through what we did, then it was definitely worth my time to make this complaint against MBA Non Profit Solutions, Inc!
