My father spent the last seven months between hospitals and nursing homes in Florida and then CT after a surgery went wrong. We fought day after day to get him home and then the virus broke out and started spreading quickly in his facility. We had to act quickly to navigate the world of preparing for him to come home but had no idea on where to start. The staff at the facility could not make a house call and assess the house and his needs. Then we found Kathy from Forever Home in Avon, CT and she came to our rescue. With our measurements and pictures, she was able to do a virtual assessment and develop a plan. She planned all of the durable medical equipment we needed from a medical bed, commode, walker, patient lift and more to the house modifications including a ramp, widening of doorways, and bathroom renovations. She worked with multiple, qualified and professional vendors who assessed the needs and quoted the projects. Without Kathy’s guidance and compassion, we would have never gotten my father home safely. She reduced our stress, concerns and what certainly would have been countless of hours trying to understand the world of ADA and home health care. We owe her the world. Dad has been home now for 5 weeks and everything is improving from his mobility to his mode. Forever home is an amazing resource when families need help bringing their loved ones home. I highly recommend both Kathy and her business, Forever Home. Why suffer through the process if you can get a professional that knows how to help?
