I highly recommend this agency. My grandma required treatment from Lavanda and not only were the nurses and therapists very passionate, so was the staff! I have never had a worry with this company. My grandma was treated with care and has no complaints. Lavanda is a very determined and fulfilling company. I highly recommend to anyone in need.

Had a bad experience with this home health agency. Had to discharge them from my dads care. I never dealt with a useless agency, I can give them one star just for providing some medical supplies for my father. Nurses very lazy and never brought their own blood pressure monitor or Glucose monitor, and always had the excuse not to change my fathers Foley catheter. Which caused my father to get UTI’s. Never flushed the Foley, I would not recommend this agency.
