| While working as Home Health Nurses for Whidbey General Hospital, we were continually
frustrated with the lack of a private-duty agency serving Whidbey
Island. Patients and their families desperately needed help at home,
but there was no way to help them find caregivers. There was also
no way to determine a caregiver's character, skills, and reliability.
We founded Island Home Nursing in 1985 to meet that need. We have
helped many people and each of them has enriched us and increased
our understanding of homecare needs and the human spirit. |
