From Our PATIENTS

  • “ When I needed help, your crew was efficient, professional, and compassionate. At a time when a patient is in a state that is less than optimal, all of those qualities are extremely important in helping put the patient at ease. The crew excelled in each of those areas, and should be commended! ”

  • “ My husband of 50 years had his second stroke, and I had to call 911 for the first time in my life. The competence, calmness, and quick response of your people soothed us both. Thank you for responding in such a wonderful and rapid manner. ”
