Visiting Nurse & Hospice of Litchfield County

“”I couldn’t have hand-picked a better nurse that exceeded our expectations of professionalism, compassion without being too over the top, and supportive of him and my knowledge and desire to help make his last months comfortable and the least stressful possible.””

“”We wanted to extend our sincere appreciation to your staff who gave such wonderful care these past couple of years. During the times she was receiving VNA services – even when she didn’t think she needed them – we couldn’t have asked for more caring individuals.””

“”I especially want to commend Denise. She was awesome. Not only was she very good at what she did, but she was also efficient and pleasant.””

“”To the wonderful staff at the VNA/Hospice that have been here caring for him for so many years – I want to thank you for your caring and expert help – not only for him, but for me as well. I couldn’t have managed without you – both individually, and as an organized group. I know I will never forget any of you.””

“”Words cannot express how thankful I am for your care. You were warm, understanding, thoughtful and so kind. You came into our lives at a very difficult time and made the time she had remaining as comfortable and happy as possible. My heartfelt thanks and appreciation for all you did.””

“”We want to thank the entire VNA and Hospice organizations that supported and watched over our Dad during the last six months. Your organization, from the health care aids and homemakers to the nurses and social workers, were great. It took a lot of burden and stress off the entire family.””

“”I would like to thank you all for your sensitive and loving support, attention and care during the last few months of my aunt’s life. Your group made it possible for me, “commuting from Virginia, to know that her daily life as was good as it could possibly be, and that she was free from anxiety and pain. I was able to trust hospice to do what I might have done if I could have been there, and the relief I felt once hospice became engaged in her care was tremendous.””

“”After recent surgery, Mary visited me at my home to monitor my health. On each of those visits, Mary was so detailed and caring for my well-being. She monitored my blood pressure, heart, and temp, etc. She carefully checked my dietary needs as well as my walking, etc. I found Mary to be very professional and warm. It’s obvious that she loves her work. All of you nurses are a true, special breed.””

“I came home with 10 different medications from the hospital, 4 of which were for pain and I was totally confused as to which pain med I should take when, how much and how often. They organized and clearly explained each medication to me, carefully checked the incision area and finally remove the bandage. From the onset I had multiple questions and a great deal of pain which each nurse addressed in the most caring compassionate way.”

“I especially want to commend Denise Kidd. She was awesome. Not only was she very good at what she did, but she was also efficient and pleasant.”
