Testimonials
This is what people are saying about Wheaton Franciscan Home Health Therapists...
Patients
"Dear Doug, On behalf of Ray and I, we would like to express our deepest gratitude for
the outstanding care and treatment you have provided for him. While his condition will
never go away, the techniques that you have taught him have insured that he is able to
function safely around our apartment as well as take an occasional "field trip" out for
lunch or other outings. During the weeks that you've worked with him, his improvement
has been nothing short of remarkable and the quality of both of our lives has improved.
You are an excellent Physical Therapist as well as being a kind and compassionate
person."
Mr. & Mrs. K.
"I wanted to let you know that your therapist did a great job working with my brother.
She was excellent! She went above and beyond and did a fantastic job. She worked on
balance exercises and now my brother is steady when he walks. He can now use a cane!
Thanks."
Mrs. C.
"I hope I can think of enough complimentary adjectives to express what a wonderful
therapist Kevin was for me. I thought I knew everything my body could and couldn't do,
but he had helpful hints that totally surprised me....The best thing he did was encourage me and prove to me (with his
measuring device or having me do something I couldn't do a week before) that I was improving...I can truly say I
appreciated Kevin even more than ice packs, and that's saying a lot!"

Staff
"The Teamwork here is unbelievable. I have never seen people work together like they do here. The
Supervisors are wonderful; they back me up. The administration is great. The other nurses give good
input and constructive criticism. I’ve worked at another home care agency and it is different here. I
love working here and would not go anywhere else."
Lindsay B. (5 months)
"There are so many reasons why I like it here. I enjoy seeing patients in their home and working
with them to stay there as long as possible. I have worked in a nursing home and have seen people
be admitted there who with the right home care support, really could have been at home. I had no
idea what home care was like before I started working here. When I had a personal crisis at home,
the support that I had from all of my peers and the office staff was unbelievable. Everyone worked
together, prayed for me and allowed me to be off work when I needed to be. There are a lot of great
perks."

Patients
"Alice is extremely kind and compassionate. When our [8 week premature] daughters first came
home, she came more often and let me know I could call her when I had questions or was worried
about something. She is extremely professional and helped us a great deal through the past 15
months. My girls are very strong and healthy now, and it's partly due to the incredible care they've
had from many people, including Alice."
Mrs. K.K.
"Nancy is the kind of person that makes a person feel at ease from the moment that she meets them
and begins what can often be a long period of treatment. She was not only gentle and kind to me,
but also to my husband. She explains everything that must be done and does not hesitate to stress
the most important things that the patient has to do in order to get back to the health they once
enjoyed. She is caring and understanding and went the extra mile to make sure that everything was
taken care of as soon as possible. She wins your heart with her smile."
