Testimonials

Something extraordinary happens every day at BAYADA Home Health Care, and it springs from the clients we serve, which often can be 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Their stories reflect the compassionate care provided by our home health professionals, but it is our clients themselves who truly are inspiring.

Elizabeth

“Elizabeth was born premature at only 29 weeks. She needed support to breathe and was in the hospital for some time. When something like this happens, it's a whirlwind. You have this child that has so many medical needs and you're scared. We needed help to bring her home safely. The BAYADA Home Health Care clinical team was a tremendous support and walked me through it all. They came to the hospital and took as much time as needed to learn about Elizabeth. They visited us at home while Elizabeth was still in the hospital to get to know her other five siblings and educate us about her care. Now, Elizabeth is doing well. Her lungs have matured enough that she is mainly only on the ventilator at night and steadily making gains. Finding these nurses has helped us so much. You can do what you need to do and know that your child is safe."

Christopher

“My 18-year-old son Christopher has Down syndrome, a tracheostomy, and is ventilator dependent. When he is frightened or confused his behavior can be challenging, particularly when we need to do a trach change. With the help of a trached baby doll, our nurse Marjorie went through the trach change process with Chris day after day. Marjorie never gave up on Chris and the huge transformation with trach changes is just amazing to me. I underestimated him and the power of perseverance. Christopher and I want to say thank you to Marjorie and to all of you for an amazing job. It's been life changing for Christopher."
— Bonnie S.

Diana

“The demands of our work schedules and the medical needs of our daughter meant traditional daycare was not a solution. BAYADA arranged care for our little girl both during our work hours and at school. I am very proud of the many ways her condition has improved. She has blossomed!"
— Jeff B.

Cheyenne

“Taking in a medically needy foster child is not an easy decision. BAYADA Home Health Care helped us through a very difficult adjustment. There were many tough decisions and lots of medical issues. The client services manager was right there for us through everything. Some weeks she would hear from us daily but she always made our problems seem manageable. Our entire household was changed drastically, but Cheyenne has made great strides since she has been here and BAYADA Home Health Care became a part of our family right along with Cheyenne."
— Debbie M.

Juliete

“Juliet doesn't just receive a laundry list of medications and therapies from our BAYADA Home Health Care, Liz. She brings intangible interpersonal skills that bring joy, happiness, and laughter into Juliet's otherwise difficult life. Liz engages Juliet with an enthusiasm that makes a true difference in the tone of each day. Since joining our team, Liz has been instrumental in enabling Juliet to progress in her physical, mental, and emotional development. As parents, it is an incredible gift to know that your child is receiving the level of care that you, yourself, would provide. Liz gives us that gift every time she comes to our home."
— Janice B.

Hannah

“On behalf of my family, I want to thank you and BAYADA Home Health Care for all that you have done for our family and my daughter, Hannah. We have had a great experience and have kept in touch with our nurse, Sandy. She was and is a comfort to our family and a delight to have in our home."
— Melanie K.

Scott

“In the spring of 1999, my son Scott was sent home with a tracheostomy and a ventilator. Naturally, my husband and I were apprehensive about the responsibility of providing care to our son. When we got BAYADA Home Health Care to help us, we expected they would provide Scott's nursing needs, which they did with efficiency and reliability, but we got much more than that. Our nurses helped Scott attend sporting and social events. They helped him attend school, cake decorating classes, and concerts. The have been helpers not just to Scott, but to our family, providing emotional support to all of us. Our tenth anniversary with BAYADA is approaching and I wanted you to know what a wonderful job they have done, helping my son live a full life, and helping our family handle all the joys and stresses we have caring for our son."
