My experience with Nurses at Home has been excellent. The nursing group is
caring and thorough. I had called quite a few companies to enquire about the
nursing services and I must say that there was no other company showed more
concern about the patient than "Nurses at Home" (as opposed to closing the
deal).
The nursing manager actually visited my mum before we agreed to secure the
services and explained in detail how the process will work. Because of the
volatility of my mum's health, I have had to postpone a few times the start
date of the nurse but at no point in time was I made to feel bad/guilty that
I had cancel the prearranged nursing services. They were most understanding
of the entire situation. The nursing care was good, the flexibility and willingness of all parties to work out the best option for the patient was
beyond what i expected.
Thanks.

I have been referring patients under my care to Nurses At Home for 2 years and I have
found the quality of the care they provide to be consistent
and of a high quality. The feedback and updates on
my patients ensures that I am able to monitor their
progress while they recuperate at home.

Nurses At Home is a great service. It was convenient,
the timing was flexible and the nurses were just as
good if not better than any other nurses I have seen
before at hospitals. I was able to continue running
my eatery as all I needed to do was to stop work for
a short time when the nurse arrived. Even better was
the fact that all my charges were covered by my Prudential
insurance policy.

I have had occasion to wait 3 hours to get my mother
attended to (and this was not at a government hospital!)
and considering that Mum requires dressings twice
a week for her diabetic foot ulcer, I'm just
happy that Nurses At Home is around. It was also impossible
to move Mum from the house to the hospital on my own
and each time 2 or more relatives had to take time
away from work to help. A very practical service as
well.

I was involved in a serious accident after which I
had to go through several rounds of surgery. After
27 days my orthopaedic surgeon found me fit for discharge
and he referred me to Nurses At Home for follow up wound
management. As a result, I was able to return home
sooner. The full acute care services at the private
hospital was not really necessary at this stage and
I was able to save money through early discharge,
approved by my doctor. Home nursing has also allowed
me to return home earlier and as a result I was able
to work from home because my computers, fax machines
and telephones were there. My MAA insurance policy
covered part of the cost of my home nursing bills
and SOCSO is helping out as well.

My mother is a widow who prefers to live on her own
while I have four children, one of which was just
delivered. My mother suffers from diabetes and has
the occasional diabetic ulcer, which requires treatment.
I would recommend Nurses At Home as they provided competent
treatment in the comfort of my mother's home
and provided relief to me from having to manage a
young family and coping with my mother's needs
at the same time. I saved time from having to move
my mother from the house to the hospital.

I have been using the services of Nurses At Home since
it began operations in 2002. It has become an invaluable
tool for the care of my post discharge patients who
need continuing care at home. The services provided
and the feedback I get from my patients have been
excellent.

I have always disliked hospitals. Unfortunately,
I found myself in one due to rheumatoid arthritis.
I found the hospital environment very intimidating
and the food was tasteless. When I found out about
Nurses At Home I checked with my doctor whether it would
be alright to be discharged. I loved the service as
they allowed me to go home to recover in my very comfortable
home. To top it off, their nurses were also very responsible
and punctual. I'd recommend this service to
anyone!

Just a short note to say that the Nurses At Home service
is an excellent idea. Your care has been excellent;
your charges are reasonable and saved me a lot of
inconvenience of bringing my father to the hospital.
Many thanks for attending to my father at home, who
suffered a stroke in March 2005. Once again I wish
to say thank you and hope you all can keep up the
good work.

After the coronary bypass surgery, it was very painful
moving around and a lot of what I was able to do in
the past suddenly became difficult. Nurses At Home was
able to provide advice after an assessment visit at
my home and helped me get back to normal living by
showing me the little things that I could do that
would make a big difference in my day to day life.
This service allowed me to rejoin my family early
and spared me the pain of moving to and from the hospital.
My loved ones also did not lose too much time from
work. The staff were very professional and efficient
in treating me. I'm very pleased and grateful
for the good service rendered to me by the kind and
gentle nurses.

After I was discharged from the hospital, I was given
follow up treatment by the nurses from Nurses At Home.
I truly believe that I got better sooner because of
the great care that I got from Nurses At Home and also
because I was very happy to be surrounded by my family
members. I was a lot more comfortable at home as opposed
to the hospital, which I found to be inconvenient.
Frankly, home-cooked food is always better as well.
I found every nurse working in this firm to be well
trained, highly capable and courteous. I recommend
this brilliant healthcare team to anyone needing their
services.

Our son is a resident at the P.J. Spastic Center.
When he came down with a serious case of Chicken Pox,
we were informed to take him out of the home until
he recovers so as not to infect the other children.
His doctor instructed that he be admitted to the hospital
for treatment (intravenous antibiotics) but my husband
and I were concerned that we would not be able to
continue working and looking after him while he was
at the hospital. With Nurses At Home, my husband and
I were able to continue working while my family members
looked after my son, supported by the nurses. My son
responded very well to the nurse who was well trained
in communicating with children. We were also very
pleasantly surprised to see that the Nurse was also
keen to help in other areas besides treatment for
the chicken pox; the nurse carried out an assessment
that found that my son was suffering from an ear and
eye infection. She cleaned the ear and eye and advised
that we take him to the doctor for a check and medication.
She also reviewed the dietary requirements for my
son and taught my mother how to prevent pressure sores.
The availability of this service helped us through
a difficult time!

My aged father has a history of falling due to old
age. The doctor treating his fractured left hip referred
him to Nurses At Home . He felt that an assessment of
the home environment would help to prevent further
falls and to prevent a readmission. We were advised
on the various safety precautions for the aged, which
included the need for a bed railing and a ripple mattress.
Over the assessment the nurse also discovered that
there was skin breakdown at the Sacrum area and was
able to avoid a further deterioration through intervention
treatment. My maid was also trained on how to prevent
bedsores in the future. Nurses At Home has made a big
difference in our lives and I would encourage anyone
needing care and treatment to consider their services.

My husband was diagnosed with a terminal illness
and there was nothing very much we could do about
it. He was discharged from hospital and advised to
seek care from Hospice Malaysia but I preferred to
go to Nurses At Home for palliative care; to make his
last days as comfortable as possible. I would encourage
families to call on Nurses At Home as they made a difference.
Our nurse provided pain relief through touch therapy,
consultation on dietary requirements and at our request,
spiritual care. She also educated the maid on some
aspects of care such as tepid sponging in the event
of fevers, bathing and cleaning, what symptoms to
watch out for; all of which helped in a big way.

My father is a creature of habit; he has to have
his dim sum breakfast every morning and when he came
down with septic arthritis it appeared he would have
to change his lifestyle. That was until we discovered
Nurses At Home. They were always very accommodating in
setting the schedule for treatment so that Dad could
indulge his breakfast schedule.
