What Our Clients Say*

Extremely Pleased (May 2020)

Hello,

Sometimes you only hear complaints. . .well not this time!

Just wanted you to know my Dad has been using this service after surgery and we’ve only had THE BEST caregivers. They take their time with him, respect his privacy, treat him as he was one of their own. Some of the caregivers we’ve had are Ellie, Mary M, Gladys, Hanady, Faouziya, and Pa. Top notch employees and my Dad’s eyes brighten up when they come.

We’re extremely pleased with the care he’s getting. My sister and I were taking turns at night staying with him the first week and found out quickly we can’t do it all. So Private Duty to the rescue!

Just wanted you to know you’ve got some great employees that care!

Flexible and Dependable

To whom it may concern,

After our father passed away in 2011, mom moved into an independent senior apartment in Omaha. At the time, she could still manage fairly well, but did need some assistance to live on her own. We were fortunate to be able to employ the PCA that had taken care of our father in the year before his death, for mom. It made the transition a bit easier on everyone. After some months however, we realized we also needed a service that could assist with mom’s care on weekends and some evenings. Since only one of the six adult children lived in Nebraska, it was necessary to have a cadre of staff to call upon when needed and as things evolved with her health.

Physician’s Choice came highly recommended and we brought them on board. . .initially for filling gaps in the schedule and for evenings, weekends and holidays. Eventually though, our full-time private PCA moved on to another state. At this point we had used the Physician’s Choice staff part time and had been very happy with their care of mom, so decided to hire their agency on a full-time basis going forward.

Physician’s Choice provided consistency of care, as well as clear communication with family members. It was such a relief to have them “managing” mom’s care as her physical needs continued to become more and more complex in the last two years of her life. We established great communication lines with the staff and management team and our concerns were always addressed promptly and with much respect for mom and all of us. They seemed to know how difficult it was to be at a distance and were so aware and respectful of our feelings. The people that became “mom’s team” were strong, caring and competent. Mom needed daily ostomy care, Foley catheter care, medication management and meal preparation. They attended to all of that. Mom received showers 2-3 times a week or more if needed. Her staff would transport her to her many doctor appointments and when she was feeling well enough to Hy-Vee grocery store (her favorite outing!).

Physician’s Choice also provided an RN who came to check on mom at least twice a week and was always available for any urgent situations. Unfortunately, in addition to the many physical issues mom was battling, she had growing confusion and dementia issues in her last year. The staff provided the calm and caring stability that was crucial to her well-being. As things progressed, family members came to town more and more often. They never hesitated to accommodate us with flexibility around scheduling so we could spend as much quality time as we wanted with mom. They truly understood and stood by us, supporting all of us, in addition to mom on this journey.

It has been just over a year now since our mom passed away in 2015 and I can tell you that it warms my heart to know that mom was surrounded by such a caring, loving group of people during the last months of her life. I would highly recommend Physician’s Choice. . .they truly care.

Care That Puts the Patient First

To whom it may concern,

I am writing this letter to tell you how grateful I am for the people from Physicians Choice.

My dad has skin cancer he has lost most of his ear and has an open sore that needs to be bandaged. We have taken him to several doctors but because of his age (96) and the extent of the sore surgery was ruled out. It was suggested that we go to the Wound Clinic so they could bandage the sore every day. This was done for  several months, but because of rules and regulations they had to stop treating him. We didn’t know where to turn, we tried several places but no one could help us. We wanted to find a RN with certified would dressing abilities to come to the house every other day. Someone suggested Physicians Choice. We hit a jack pot!!!

The nurse we received comes every other day. She is wound care certified and knows about all the medical dressings he needs. She works her schedule around my dad and comes when ever he needs her. Dan has now had radiation treatment for the last two weeks to stop the bleeding. She came to the hospital every day to bandage him. He let the people know at the radiation office that this was HIS nurse. She also talked with all the technicians, which was very comforting. She has met him at his doctor’s office and re-bandaged him after the doctor visit. She is so respectful and caring for my dad. She is very attentive to my mom and makes her feel at ease through all of this.

I am truly thankful for her and I don’t know what we would do with out her!! I would recommend Physicians Choice to anyone!!

Sincerely,

Debbie Workman

How We Care

Above and Beyond

At Physicians Choice Private Duty, care of the elderly extends far beyond allowing them to age in place. It means giving our elderly clients the opportunity to remain in their own home and do the things that they have always enjoyed. Here’s just one example: In talking with the daughter of a new client, we learned that before her mother became homebound, she had a standing weekly hair appointment. Knowing that the woman would miss these appointments, we arranged for a hairdresser to come to the woman’s home each week and do her hair – at the same time PCPD came to give the woman a bath. This small gesture meant the world to the client and illustrated PCPD’s commitment to do more than keep clients in their own homes but to make sure they remain happy there.

Going Out of Our Way

Commitment to the elderly is a way of life for those at Physicians Choice Private Duty. And it’s a commitment that extends beyond just our clients. Recently, Physicians Choice Private Duty was asked by a client to check in on the client’s 90-year-old father who had just been released from the hospital following a car accident. After visiting the man, we determined that Medicaid services would meet his needs and he wouldn’t require visits from PCPD. But that wasn’t the end of the story. During her visit, we learned that the man was going to attend the funeral of a close friend. Since Medicaid would not be out to the man’s home before the funeral, we arranged for a PCPD aid to come out and give the man a bath at no charge so he could look his best for the funeral.
