FEBRUARY IS AMERICAN HEART MONTH…

“As you may know, I like to keep you abreast of any opportunities to find a good, caring and responsible home health aide. Recently, a congregant needed a daily person for 3 weeks. When I went to visit, she raved about the care she was getting from this service. It is: David York Agency in Brooklyn. Ask for Anita Kamiel. 718-376-7755. ”

L BHolliswood, N.Y.

“To Marty, Pam, Natalie and the amazing aides that work for David York Agency – I would like to express appreciation to all of you for the care you gave my mom (and to me as the primary caregiver). You have all been so professional and kind. There were so many annoying and aggravating situations that came up and throughout you all stayed calm and supportive. I am sure I will not get the same attention and support anywhere else. Continue your excellent work!! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. ”

C WBrooklyn, N.Y.

“I am glad I called your agency and thankful that you chose both excellent aides to assist me.”

M KNew York, N.Y.

“This is a letter thanking you for providing wonderful services for my mother. Both D.B. (aide) and C.B. (aide) did a wonderful job in the time they took care of my mother.”

J TStaten Island, N.Y.

“I am grateful to you for sending 2 wonderful people to take care of my mother. I would give M. (aide) and G. (aide) the highest of recommendations. In fact, I have given the name of your agency to 2 different parties who are in need of help in caring for an older person. It was my pleasure dealing with such an understanding individual at your agency.”

G ICedarhurst, N.Y.

“Thank you for everything. You were very helpful in getting us reliable, friendly assistance. My family and I thank you deeply.”

M K FStaten Island, N.Y.

“My family and I wish to express our appreciation to your agency for the courteous and efficient manner in which assistance was given. We particularly would like to single out H.G. (aide) for the extraordinary care she provided. Not only did she attend to my mother’s physical needs in an excellent manner (hygiene, meals, etc.), but she gave her loving attention during a very difficult period. She is a warm, caring, highly intelligent woman and a fine credit to your agency.”

H CRockaway Park, N.Y.

“I just wish to express how pleased we all have been with the service you have provided.” –

E TWest Hempstead, N.Y.

“I am writing to commend your employee, B.S. (aide), for the excellent care she gave my mother. I must admit I had misgiving about allowing a total stranger to live in our home, but I had no choice. Mother was no longer able to care for herself and it was impossible for me to stay at home 24 hours a day to care for her. So a “live-in” was the only answer. B.S. was clearly the best thing that happened in a very sad, trying situation. She was a great comfort, and I hope to be able to keep up with her as a personal friend from now on. She is superb and definitely ‘one of a kind’.”

N BQueens Village, N.Y.

“We are all very satisfied and pleased with the aides you have sent to us. I don’t hesitate in recommending people to you. Thank you.”

M KStaten Island, N.Y.

“Thank you very much for your help and quick response to our needs.”

A J TBrooklyn Heights, N.Y.

“Anita, Thank you so much for your support and advice. We still talk about the extraordinary professionals that we dealt with during my mom’s time with us and you were of tremendous help. I know that others must appreciate you as well.”
