Casey was on top of every one of Dad's needs, as well as guiding me through my many questions and concerns.
Casey took care of my father, who is 87 and has Dementia. Casey was kind, compassionate, and cared for Dad with a contagious sense of humor. Casey was on top of every one of Dad's needs, as well as guiding me through my many questions and concerns. If she did not have the answers, she made calls and connected me with people who had the answers. Friday night into Saturday, Dad kept his TV on until 4 a.m.; Casey made sure that the night nurses on Saturday night were aware to turn off the TV and lights so Dad could get a good night's sleep.

Being in the hospital for three days made my dad very weak and unable to stand up and walk with the use of his walker. Casey gave my dad motivation and encouragement to get him ready for PT! She made sure he ate his meals, stayed hydrated, and got his rest. Dad lives in a retirement community and needed to meet the PT expectations in order to go home; if not, he would have had to go to a rehab facility. Casey understood my concerns about having a patient with dementia being moved to new places. She supported Dad physically and both of us emotionally! Dad is back home and doing well. I am so thankful for Casey's expertise and dedication to her profession, and I hope she receives the recognition she deserves. Thank You!
