"Our
goal is to make a difference in someone's life every day" We offer a "Patient Advocate" Program for
all of our patients. Each patient is assigned an advocate that ensures the patient understands their services and
that our staff is always providing the highest quality care. They will conduct surveys after admission and during their
time of service with our agency. In turn, we use this information to continue to improve our quality of care and make our
patients experience with home health a positive one.

great outcomes for pain control, circulation, ambulation and wound healing. Please contact us for more information or visit

severity. I want to continue on the treatment because the pain no longer comes up my leg..." Lillie J. 8/11/06 "After the treatment, I have pain relief for up to two days and release muscles so I can
have flexibility with my joints. I value this kind of treatment and want it as long as I can benefit from it..." Louise
M. 8/10/06 "I have referred to peers and they are also enjoying relief of pain
from treatment. I personally noticed immediate positive results of pain relief after the 1st treatment and had a short remission.
I don't know how long I will need this great treatment, but as long as I want it available to me... Frank R. 8/8/06 "Had extreme back pain and Anodyne therapy allowed me to become pain-free. I felt results
after 2nd treatment." C. McIntyre 12/2/07 "It really helps me. I'm pain-free
for two or three days after each tx! It think it's wonderful!"Anna C. 1/23/08
