I am so grateful and thankful for the caring staff! It was so wonderful to have people who genuinely care come to my home to help care for me after my spinal surgery. Everyone I interacted with was amazing! I highly recommend Mederi to anyone needing home health nursing and/or physical/occupational therapy!

I suffered a stroke in february and needed home health care upon discharge we started with another local company but due to insurance had to switch to Mederi and it was a true blessing. I was assigned Avadene as my Physical therapist and i cannot say enough about this truly amazing woman. She was caring, thoughtful, loving and helped me so so much in my journey to recovery. She truly was a blessing to me and my family. For Occupational Therapy i was assigned Becky and again words cannot describe the comfort and care she gives it is not just therapy as Avadene and Becky treat me with so much love and compassion it is like having Family members caring for me with the amount of care they gave me. I am forever grateful to the two of them for helping me thru these trying times. God Bless them both. Sincerely, Therese Stanley and Family
