What our clients have said.
Testimonials.
“Family First makes you feel like you are truly FAMILY! All of the nurses give you this nurturing comfort feeling that puts your mind at ease as far as them caring for a loved one. The best part about family first is the communication is frequent and hands on. Also they try to keep the same nurse in the home just in case you’re not to keen on different people in and out your home.” Justice B., Fort Myers, FL
“Hi my name is Natasha I use Family First as my nursing agency. They’re very polite in the office and always try to do everything they can to help you. They are really good at getting the nurses orientated and out to the families. Family First also does very well with scheduling and orientation nurses and covering schedules.” Natasha M., Fort Myers, FL
“I have used Family First homecare going on 5 years now. My son has a neuromuscular disease. The care I get from this team of amazing people who are like family to us now is amazing. I’m grateful for them the office staff will keep you up to date with everything about your case they even have after hours service that I’ve had to use. If a nurse calls off, they do everything within their power to get your shift covered for you and if they can’t they will call you back and notify you and you never have to worry about what is going on. You’re never left hanging, the office staff even helped me out when we had to transfer his insurance. There has been several times I myself have been in the hospital to receive medical treatments and they have always made sure my son has had absolutely everything he needed to stay safe and stay functional and rolling.” TJ H., Fort Myers, FL
