Client testimonial
The compassionate care from SYNERGY HomeCare for Jeff's mom as she entered hospice made all the difference

"It was truly a blessing that we found SYNERGY. The caregivers were trained in caring for dementia patients and were able to work with my mother, while another company just wasn't able to do the job. The caregivers are excellent. Savka, in particular, took the time to read the Bible to my mom daily, which was very important to her. They were extremely compassionate towards the end when my mom was approaching hospice and did everything possible to make her comfortable. Milena was frequently rubbing my mom's back and shoulders to help her ease discomfort. Kayla was always positive and attentive. Overall, great care! Thanks to Ruth and her team, my mom was able to pass away peacefully in her home! Truly blessed to have had the SYNERGY team!"  Jeff

SYNERGY HomeCare Offering CNA Grant

“We know ongoing education and training not only improve the quality of care we provide our clients,” according to Ruth Busalacchi, owner, SYNERGY HomeCare, “they contribute to the success of our caregivers and their job satisfaction.”

Our caregivers are not required by law to be CNA certified. Approximately 60% of SYNERGY HomeCare's caregivers are CNA certified. Caregivers who are not certified and who have been employed with SYNERGY HomeCare for at least a year are now eligible to apply for a tuition grant to attend CNA training. Applicants are required to write an essay including why they are applying for the grant, how they will use the knowledge they gain, and why they should be awarded the grant. The grant recipient will, among other things, be expected to continue employment for at least two years. The grant is awarded annually. 

Senior Scams: It’s OK to Hang Up

“It’s OK to hang up”, was Bob’s response when asked what he learned after SYNERGY HomeCare presented a senior scams program at his independent living community in Greenfield, WI. That is a popular response from seniors in other communities and senior centers where the program has been offered.

Seniors don’t want to be rude and they fear the repercussions of hanging up. That’s what scammers count on. The longer they can keep you on the phone, the greater the likelihood is they’ll get you to share personal and financial information.

To learn more about senior scams, including the IRS Scam and the Grandparents Scam, and to schedule a presentation, contact Enid at 414-763-8368.

“I can’t wait to share this information with my friends,” said Lorrie after a presentation at her senior center. “They need to know about the Grandparent’s Scam and that they shouldn’t open suspicious emails with links and attachments.”

"I would recommend the caregivers SYNERGY HomeCare has sent us to anybody. SYNERGY HomeCare's company provides quality services."

Therese (, WI)

"I just want to share with you my experiences over the past 2 years in working with Ruth Busalacchi of our local Synergy office. I am the administrator of an independent and assisted living community with over 165 residents. We have had numerous examples over the past year where our residents have experienced a sudden change in condition in which they needed more support. Sometimes the support was available through our assisted living services and at other times, it was needed instead of or in addition to our services. In every instance, every, Ruth and her team was able to implement services as quickly as was needed, up to and including same day. In every situation, I had no doubt that Ruth would support us in delivering a consistent message to our families on the options available to them. Her sense of partnership is evident; her sense of responsibility for the well being of the resident is always clear; and the integrity with which she works consistent. In addition, she is always open to feedback on the staff provided, which has resulted in a great working relationship with our facility and positive feedback from our families. I look forward to continuing to work with Ruth and her staff in the future, as she has been an outstanding partner in ensuring our residents have the most appropriate solutions in place.
