“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Navi Nurses–the entire team was an absolute lifesaver for not only my family member who was seriously ill, but to me as well supporting my caregiver efforts. They came directly to the hospital to assist with hospital discharge and coming home–my husband has been hospitalized for 10 days and was very weak. They even assisted us to his first radiation appointment and served as a very important additional set of eyes and ears when we needed it most. Compassionate caring and WONDERFUL HUMAN BEINGS!!!! Look no further you wont find any better.”
“I wish there were more than five stars… the team helped our mother through her final illness with compassion, friendship, respect and — above all — high quality professional nursing care. Losing a loved one is a lousy experience no matter how you look at it, but NAVI made it so much better for our family than it otherwise would have been. Much love to Navi.“
“I cannot say enough good things about Navi Nurses… They helped coordinate care for my mother, including picking her up from the acute nursing facility, receiving all of her discharge instructions, and transporting her home. My mom’s assigned nurse is an absolute blessing. She has navigated my mom’s post-discharge care, attended follow up appointments, and has just been an all-around caring and wonderful person.”
“There is a real benefit of having care in your home… not having to be out… I was able to have my blood drawn at the kitchen table… these home health opportunities [are] the top situation because you do feel so comfortable in your home.“
“she also helped with filling out the medicines container. Checking off and helping to give my husband a good system to follow to make sure that I was getting all the adequate medication which was considerable… over 21 medications to manage.”
