My mom was a kind, accomplished, independent woman until the last 5 months of her life. At 93 she had a large friend group and a vibrant full life. When we learned that her lung cancer had finally stripped her of her independence, we had to act swiftly to get her the care and safety she needed. Sage home healthcare was recommended to us and we contracted with them for 24hr live in help. As you can imagine, being 93 with a crystal clear mind, it was not easy to become dependent on a stranger to assist you with all of your daily activities and necessities. Nelle’ was a wonderful care giver. She established a loving and warm relationship with our mom. Daily when I spoke with my mom, she would recount everything that Nelle did for her each day and tell me that she loved her. Nelle treated her with such kindness and dignity throughout the entire unfortunate degrading of my mom’s ability to care for herself. Nelle and I spoke daily about my mom’s health & condition. She was with my mom when she passed and for that I’m forever grateful. Knowing that someone was with my mom 24/7 with a warm and caring heart is priceless. Sage is a wonderful agency putting the needs of their patients first. They always provided updates and oversight to ensure that my mom was happy, comfortable and safe.
