“You’ve found the greatest group of nurses. Everyone is so kind. I wouldn’t give them up if you paid me”
“I really appreciated having her. I think she helped my husband almost more than me…just knowing she was there. Because he went through a lot too with all this, so, it helped him too, knowing she was there.”
“To be honest… I thought that having a nurse after discharge might be a waste of time. I’m a graduate student and self-advocate when it comes to my health. I was very pleasantly surprised at how helpful the nurse was in supporting me after my discharge!”
“This was THE BEST service I have ever received! I needed help on quick notice. They were able to quickly accommodate which relieved a lot of stress for me. They were punctual, kind, knowledgeable, caring; but most of all respectful of me! They checked on me after my contracted time… I really appreciate Navinurses–they literally saved me!!!!!!”
“[Navi Nurses sent] an excellent nurse. He works quickly, quietly, and is very efficient. He anticipated my needs without me having to tell him He’s just very very good.”
