Dear Home First I'm sorry for the delay of my review but I need to tell you about two amazing and compassionate and caring therapists that work for you. Kayla Lind and Josh case manager has been my physical therapist for many years and they have gotten me through some very tough times in my health issues. I have followed them to your company because they care for me like I'm a part of their family and I love them because they have always encouraged and challenged me to get my physical health back so I'm able to care for myself. Kayla and Josh will always be apart of my physical health care but I love them both like family and include them in my prayers. They both love doing God's work in caring for the elderly and for anyone that needs their help . Thank you

Carol came over today to do an evaluation and worked a miracle! My mother got up and walked all while Carol tolerated my mothers aggressive comments, with a smile. Mom even sat up to eat on her own (after Carol left) without me asking or helping! Thank you Carol for all you do, you are a true blessing!
