Friends Of The Family

Friends of the Family Friends of the Family was founded by Geoff Scott, a surgical nurse, in memory of his grandmother. Our company's goal is to provide superb, compassionate, dependable and affordable in-home care for peace of mind for our patients as well as for their families. Our phones are answered by our own staff 24/7--including weekends and holidays--to address any situation, and we guarantee that all scheduled shifts will begin on time. What sets Friends of the Family apart from other home health care companies is our dedication to go above and beyond in every aspect of care and service. We go to the hospital upon admission or shortly afterwards to personally coordinate care between doctors, nursing staff, social workers and the family. Our services do not stop at personal care; we also leave the patient with a sparkling clean house.
