Marsha Kalka has been my husband's aide since his stroke. We have been so comfortable with her service. Wish I can keep her. She noticed my husbands shoulder, took a picture and OT was able to address the area. Above n beyond duty. Thank u Marsha.

Lakela, has to be one of the best nurses I have ever dealt with. She is kind,very friendly, and just an all around nice person. She gave me info I needed and told me to call if I had or wanted help at any time. This was the only the second time with her visiting with my husband Ralph, but she was great each time. She definitely deserves 5 stars.

Marsha Kalka has been my home health aide for the past month and she has been a Godsend. She eased my anxiety about having someone come into my home and help me bathe - especially back and feet - after hip replacement surgery. She also changed my bed linens and put on my compression socks - all with no complaint. She is very professional, as well as pleasant, kind and supportive. She always let me know what time we were scheduled, and gave me a heads-up when she was on her way. We’ve had nice chats every time and I will definitely miss her visits.
