Gratitude in Healthcare: Thankful For Our Homecare Nurses

During this Thanksgiving season we wanted to express our endless gratitude for the hard work and dedication of our incredible nursing team.

Your tireless commitment, unwavering compassion, and exceptional skills make a profound difference in the lives of our patients every day. Whether it’s offering comfort during challenging moments, providing expert care, or simply lending a listening ear, you consistently go above and beyond. Your work doesn’t just heal bodies—it nurtures hearts and comforts families.

We’re honored to share heartfelt testimonials from both our nurses and the families whose lives have been touched.

Patient Family Testimonials

“Family First Homecare is exceptional. My son who is disabled receives full-time nursing care services. The nurses provide great care to my son. The office responds quickly to my needs and listens to what the client would like. I have been very happy with the nurses that have worked on my sons case. I would highly recommend Family First to any family who is looking for nursing services within there home. Our nurses on our case feel like family and thats what I feel that Family first strives to achieve.”

Cynthia G., Parent of Client

Bringing our daughter home from the NICU was one of the greatest and most overwhelming moments of our lives. Family First really understood that and made the transition so much easier. Even with receiving an unexpected early discharge, Family First still made everything seamless. A nurse was there during discharge and she followed us home to make sure we got there safely. Once we arrived, a whole team was waiting to help us get settled. We had nurses already staffed for the month and someone from the team would call to check us on daily. I did not expect them to be involved as much as they did and are now. Family First has shown us so much genuine love, compassion, and kindness from the ENTIRE team. They really make me like my family is their top priority.”

– Isha B., Patient Family

Nurse Testimonials

 “I definitely didn’t go into nursing school with private duty nursing as my goal, and I without a doubt went into nursing school completely against pediatrics. But the joke is on me because I’ve been with this family for four years, and it has been the most gratifying, fulfilling experience of my life outside of my personal family. Not only having a front row seat, but a vital hands-on role in this little guy’s fight and journey to reaching goals he was never supposed to reach is really what has made private duty nursing the place for me.”

– Jennifer, Field Nurse

“I’ve worked in pediatrics for years but never have I gotten to experience what it’s like to be a part of the total picture before until now. Not only has this job improved my adaptation skills by forcing me to take what was learned in school, combine it with available resources, and maximize care accordingly, but it’s also allowed me to expand what I like to call ‘chosen family’. At the end of every day, we get to clock out knowing that we gave our all, rather than knowing we had to do what we could with 10 minutes allotted to each patient. Being able to see the entire care team’s efforts come to fruition in children that need extra love, attention, and services has been one of the most rewarding experiences to date.” 

– Kelly, Field Nurse

As we reflect on all we have to be thankful for this season, we want you to know how much your efforts are truly appreciated—not just now, but always.
