TESTIMONIALS
What our clients are saying
Pat and her staff made caregiving from 1800 miles away not only a possability but a done deal. They have acted as my sister's advocate when i could not be there. We removed her from an unsafe environment to a safe facility where she is flourishing with a riegem of meds, food and exercise. I heartily recommend them if you are faced with a long distance caregiving situation.
Marty Silverstein
Pat Waldron has been like a “guardian angel” for my sister. She would not listen to me or let me help her so they have been a lifesaver and given me peace of mind. Now she is doing much better and is happier.
J.S.
