Our home care nurses from Visiting Nurse Service comes weekly. We are using them for more than three years now and we are satisfied with them. The company hires nurses that are wives of the marines who come here for their tour of duty. So, we will have a nurse for six months to a year. Then transfer comes and they leave then we will have another one. We never have a bad one. They are prompt, friendly, knowledgeable, compassionate and accurate. They know what they are doing. They are attentive and my wife is comfortable with them. We haven't had any infection. We flap around with PICC through the years and that works well. But they don't install that.
