What our clients have said.
Testimonials.
“We have had Family First as our nursing agency since my daughter came home from All Children’s Hospital. Our daughter is dependent on a tracheostomy and a respirator. She is currently on a transplant list for a double lung transplant. Most recently we were prepared to withdraw life support as we were told she was no longer able to keep fighting. During this difficult time Jennifer the Director of Nursing and her clinical team continued to reach out and even made visits to our daughter and family while in the hospital. Without this agency and their skillfully trained nurses our family honestly does not know where we would be in managing all the complexities of her care. We will stay with this agency for as long as our daughter requires skilled nursing.” K.T., Tampa, FL
“My son, L.D., was born with a very rare neuromuscular disease called X-Linked Myotubular Myopathy. I am happy to say that L.D. is now almost 5 years old thanks to the incredible Private Duty Nursing care he has received through Family First Home Health. He has a tracheostomy and a g-tube (feeding tube). He is on a ventilator 24/7. He is entirely dependent on skilled, licensed nurses for his care. We have made it through the most difficult trials and tribulations this year thanks to Family First and the care L.D. has been receiving from his current nursing staff. He is medically thriving. Thank you Family First for making a huge difference in my son’s life!.” E.H., Palm Harbor, FL
