Ah-May-Zing! Having to worry about someone in the hospital is bad enough but at least there are nurses there (supposed to be) around the clock and/or at the push of a button. But what happens when you bring your loved one home and they require further care that is beyond your know how? Well you hope that your doctor has recommended “Home Care Excellence” because Home Care EXCELLENCE is exactly how they DO things. It is in the QUALITY of their PEOPLE. It truly sums up everything they are and all they do. We sat back and listened to all the nurse; Liberty had to say…she went over all of my moms care instructions per her doctors discharge notes and we asked questions and Liberty answered them to our satisfaction and then some. Liberty left us feeling comfortable and at ease and as a Family we felt our mom; who is the center of this family was in EXCELLENT caring, loving and knowledgeable hands to which we felt she could relax, rest and begin the healing process. Thank you Home Care Excellence for all you do.
